Yes, there are lots of things like that.

Gravitational force depends on distance.

Usually, when we talk about a planet's "gravity" we mean the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the planet. That's called the "surface gravity".

Earth is smaller than Jupiter. Jupiter has more gravity than Earth. If you weigh 100lbs on Earth, you'd weigh about 240lbs at the "surface" of Jupiter.

Then you ask yourself ''Hmmm... what has more gravity than Jupiter?"

If the Moon was bigger than Earth it will have more gravity. So the answer is stars, such as:

Sun, Sirius A , VY Canis Majoris, and more...

Improvement by InunoTaisho:

Yes, there are many things in space that can outstrip Jupiter for sheer mass (which is the major factor for gravity). A neutron star. Our very own star, known as "the Sun" or "Sol", has a gravity value MUCH higher than that of Jupiter. A black hole, which is so massive, that its "gravity well" sucks in even photons of light, would suck up all of Jupiter in one gulp, though it might take time. Lots of other stars and planetary bodies are larger than that of our big sister planet. Then we move on to objects that are made of many smaller things, like galaxies or nebulas. They can be mind bogglingly huge enough to eat many Jupiters and not even notice a change in gravity at all...

But within our own little solar system, the Sun is gravity boss, with Jupiter placing second.

Would you weigh more on Jupiter of earth?

you would weigh more on Jupiter because of the greater gravity


What has more gravity Jupiter or Pluto?

The "surface" gravity of Jupiter is about 40 times that of Pluto.


Why does Jupiter have more moons than mars?

Jupiter is far more massive than Mars and therefore its gravity field covers a larger volume of space so that it has been able to capture more debris from that volume.


Is Jupiter's gravity stronger then Earth's?

No. The gravity of Jupiter more than twice as strong as that on Earth.


Why does Jupiter have more moons while Venus and Mercury have no moons at all?

Jupiter is very close to the asteroid belt - pretty much an area where a bunch of loose space debris could be caught up in Jupiter's gravity at any second. Also Jupiter is significantly bigger than Venus, actually over 100x bigger. Since Jupiter's gravity is much larger than Venus's gravity, it can pull in more moons to orbit around it.


How would jupiters gravity compare to that of venus?

Jupiter's gravity is about 2.5 times stronger than Venus' gravity. This difference is due to Jupiter's larger mass and size compared to Venus. On Jupiter, an object would weigh 2.5 times more than it would on Venus.


Why is there more gravity on Jupiter?

Because it is more massive and a lot bigger. Bigger and denser objects tend to create greater curvature or warping on the single fabric space-time, which we feel as the pull of gravity.


Does the Earth have more gravity than Jupiter?

Jupiter, the biggest planet in the solar system, has far more gravity than the Earth. Only the Sun has more gravity than Jupiter in our solar system.


What planet has twice the gravity of earth?

Despite the fact that Uranus has a mass 14.5 times Earth's mass, its surface gravity isless thanEarth's.Jupiter and Neptune both have more "surface gravity" than Earth.


How does Jupiter have more or less gravity than Earth?

Jupiter has more gravity than Earth because it is a larger and more massive planet. Gravity depends on the mass and size of an object, so Jupiter's greater mass and size result in stronger gravitational force compared to Earth.


Does Jupiter have more gravity that earth?

The simple answer is yes. The real answer is very complicated. Jupiter has a "surface gravity" of about 2.5 times that of the Earth's.


Does Jupiter has more gravity than earth?

Yes, because of Jupiter's massive size.
