When the first human visitors step foot on the surface of Mars, they're immediately going to notice that the gravity on Mars is much lower than they're used to on Earth. In fact, the gravity on Mars is 38% the gravity on Earth. In other words, if you weigh 100 kg on Earth, you would only weigh 38 kg on Mars.
It's important to understand that the kilogram is actually a measurement of your mass. And your mass doesn't change when you go anywhere in the Universe and experience different amounts of gravity. Your weight is best measured in newtons. But since your bathroom doesn't measure your weight in newtons, we'll use kilograms. This is what your bathroom scale would say if you stepped on another world.
The moon has less mass than does Mars and therefore has less gravity at its surface.
The force of gravity on Mars is equal to 3.7m/s2. Mars's force of gravity is therefore 37.8% that of Earth's.
Mars has less gravity.
No. Gravity on Mars is about 38% of what it is on Earth.
No. Surface gravity on Mars is 37.6% (about 3/8) what it is on Earth.
The gravity of Earth is 2.6 times that of Mars.Mars's gravity is 38% of Earth's gravity.
Mars has weaker gravity than Earth. The gravity on Mars is about 38% of the gravity on Earth. This means that objects on Mars weigh less than they would on Earth.
Surface gravity on mars is 0.376 compared to that of the earth.
Surface gravity (Earth=1) Mars: 0.38
Mars's gravity is 38% of Earth's.
Martian gravity is only 38% of the Earth's gravity.
No. The gravity on Mars is about 38% that on Earth. So Mars has about 62 percent less gravity.
