Best Answer

Of the four inner, rocky planets, Earth is the largest and most massive. As a consequence, it has the highest surface gravity of the four inner planets. The gravity for Venus is around 90% of Earths, while for Mars and Mercury the surface gravity is around 38% of Earths.

Why do you weigh more in one planet then in another?

You have the same mass anywhere, but you weigh more or less on a planet depending on the gravitaional pull of the planet. The more gravitational pull, the more you weigh. The gravitational pull depends on the size of the planet. The bigger the planet, the more gravitaional pull.
