The surface gravity on Io is very low compared to Earth, due to its low mass, around 0.183g or 18.3% of the Earths pull at the surface. this is just a little more than the surface gravity on our own moon, which is about 16.5% of earths pull.
"Surface gravity" is simply the strength of the gravitational field of a planet (or other object) at its surface. Often it is measured as the "acceleration due to gravity". On Earth this is about 9.8 meters per second per second.
Martian gravity is only 38% of the Earth's gravity.
specific gravity = relative density ( relative to water) , so if the mineral is 10 times the density of water, then its specific gravity is 10
0.827
9.8m/s2
That's going to depend on 'relative' to what ?Relative to the acceleration of gravity on Earth, it's precisely 1.000, or 100% .Relative to the acceleration of gravity on Pluto, it's 16.822, or 1,682.2 % .
The question doesn't include enough information to make an answer possible.Whenever you talk "relative", you then must specify: relative to what.The weight of an object on the Earth's surface is much smaller than the sameobject's weight on the sun's surface, but much larger than its weight on thesurface of a bowling ball.
If you weigh 100lbs on Earth, you would weigh 37.8lbs on Mercury.
The acceleration of gravity ... and therefor the weight of any object ... on thesurface of Mercury is 37.698% of its value on the surface of Earth. (rounded)
Mars has 38% the pull of gravity than th Earth's.
Within a context, the two may be different, yet the general descriptions are the same. A level surface is measurably level; a horizontal surface simply implies the relative situation for a surface.

No. The surface of the earth is held to the planet by gravity. However parts of the surface move relative one to another - this is called plate tectonics.
The pressure of gravity on a surface is(total force of gravity on the surface) divided by (area of the surface)
The surface gravity on the moon is approximately one sixth the surface gravity of Earth.
The Sun's gravity, at its surface, is about 28 times Earth's surface gravity.
