Weight is defined as the mass of something multiplied by the force of gravity.
The force of gravitational pull exerted by one thing on another is dependent upon the mass of the object creating the force and its distance from the object being acted upon. When distance is equal (as it would be, more or less, when in either case we are standing on the surface of a planet) then mass is the only factor.
The force of gravity is stronger on Neptune (as it has a greater mass and therefore creates a greater gravitational pull) than it is on Earth and so even though an object has the same mass, its weight is greater on Neptune.
When you are on Earth however you do not notice the effect of Neptune's gravity because Neptune is a very long way away whereas the Earth is close and distance becomes a factor.

Why do you weigh more on earth than on Pluto?
you don't its because earth has more mass that it has more gravidy then Pluto
Why human weigh more at earth then Pluto?
Because it has less mass than earth
Would your weight be more or less on Pluto than on Earth?

Viewed from Pluto would the Sun would appear more than a thousand times fainter than on earth?
Yes, it is true. The Sun would appear more than a thousand times fainter viewed from Pluto than it would as viewed from Earth.
Because mercury is less massive than earth things there would weigh?
they would weigh more. more gravity= more weightadd. With a smaller gravity, they would weigh LESS.
Why do you weigh more on earth then on Pluto?
You weigh more on Earth than on Pluto because Earth has a higher gravitational pull than Pluto does.
Is Pluto's gravity more or less than earth's if so what would an object weigh on Pluto?
The acceleration of gravity on the surface of Pluto is 0.658 meters/second2 ... about 7% of the corresponding number on the Earth's surface. A man who weighs 200pounds on Earth would weigh 13pounds 6.7ounces on Pluto.
Why do you weigh more on earth than on Pluto?

Why human weigh more at earth then Pluto?
Because it has less mass than earth
If a student weighs 100 pounds on earth how much more or less would she weigh on Pluto then mars?
because he was an scarydy crow

On which planet would you weigh less than you do on earth?
you would weigh the least on mars. (take in account Pluto is not a planet any more)
Does Pluto have a greater or less gravity than earth?
Earth has a much greater mass than Pluto does, and therefore has stronger gravity.
Are there more things different with Pluto and Earth?
Earth is a planet and Pluto is a Disney character
Viewed from Pluto would the Sun would appear more than a thousand times fainter than on earth?
Yes, it is true. The Sun would appear more than a thousand times fainter viewed from Pluto than it would as viewed from Earth.
Why is the force of gravity on Earth greater than Pluto?
Earth has a much greater mass than Pluto does, and therefore has stronger gravity.
