the gravitational force of the Mercury is extremely less that is why there is no atmosphere around it.
Improved answer:
In fact the gravitational field is just under 40% of Earth's.
The Force of Gravity on Mercury results in an Acceleration of 3.7 m/s2 compared to Earth's which is 9.8 m/s2 . So compared to the Earth it is about 38%.
Mercury's surface gravity is equal to about 3.7m/s^2. In comparison, Earth's gravity is equal to 9.81m/s^2, which is more than 2.6 times greater than that of Mercury's gravity.
It is approx 38% of Earth's gravity.
3.703 m/s²
the ansewer is not gravity. Gravity is what keeps it around the sun. you see mercury has linear motion, which just means it is going strait. if the sun had no gravity mercury would simply fly past the sun and out of the solar system. Also if mercury had no linar motion it would simply fall strait into the sun. so.. it is the balance of gravity with mercury's linear motion that keeps it in orbit around the sun.
Weight depends on the strength of gravity. Mass is constant.
38% of earth's gravity
[ Mass ] is a property of the object, and doesn't depend on the presence or strength of gravity.[ Weight ] is the result of gravity, and changes depending on the local strength of gravity.
By the mass of the attracting object, and by its distance.
mercury gravity: earth gravity
The gravity on Earth is stronger than the gravity on Mercury.
Mercury's gravity is 38% of that on Earth.
Gravity ("surface gravity")on Mercury is 0.38 that of Earth.
The gravity on Mercury is 38% of Earth's gravity. So, if you were 150mlbs on Earth, you would be 57 lbs on Mercury.
By a very slim margin you would weigh the least on Mercury, where gravity is 37% the strength of it is on Earth. This is only a tiny bit less than the gravity of Mars, which is 37.11% of Earth's gravity.
Mercury's gravity is approx 38%.
Mercury's gravity is 38% that of Earth.
No Mercury, either the metal or the planet is not equal to gravity. Gravity is a force of nature, not a planet or a substance.
There is much less gravity on Mercury.
The gravity at the surface of Mercury is less than the gravity at the surface of the Earth because Mercury has less mass than Earth does.
If you weigh 100lbs on Earth, you would weigh 37.8lbs on Mercury.
