You would weigh more on Jupiter because Jupiter has a greater mass than Earth. More mass equals a stronger gravitational pull. Since weight just measures gravity's pull, then you would weigh more.
You would weigh more on a denser planet, such as jupiter, because the planets mass pulling you towards it is greater than that of earths, therefore you would 'weigh' more, where your weight i how much the planet pulls down on you, according to your own mass.
Because Jupiter's radius/diameter is 11.209 times the size of the Earth's, and the
mutual gravitational force between any two objects is inversely proportional to the
square of the distance between their centers.
(11.209)2 = 125.64
So the force on any object located on the surface of Jupiter should be
300/125.64 = 2.388 times
the force on the same object when it's located on the surface of Earth.
============================
The correct ratio of Jupiter's mass to Earth's is 317.83.
So the ratio of "weights" should be 317.83/(11.209)2 = 2.5297
The acceleration of gravity on Jupiter is listed as 22.88 m/s2 .
22.88 / 9.807 = 2.333
That's a disappointing discrepency, but I'm not going to worry about it just now
since, intriguingly, I have lost interest in the whole issue.
Gravity is related to mass, or how much of something there is, and Jupiter has a much higher mass than earth, and therefore the gravitational pull of Jupiter is far more than earth.
Because Jupiter has a greater force of gravity
Jupiter has more mass, and as a result, more gravitational attraction
You would weigh about 2.3 times more on Jupiter than you would on earth, because of Jupiter's massive size. Your mass would remain the same though.
A person would weigh the most on Jupiter, since Jupiter has the strongest gravitational pull. If it were possible to stand on Jupiter's liquid core, or swim in its liquid core, we could say that a person would weigh the most on Jupiter.However, since Jupiter is actually a gas planet, there technically is no "on Jupiter". Earth is the most massive terrestrial planet in the solar system, so a person would weigh more on Earth than "on" any other planet.In other stellar systems you would weigh more on Brown Dwarfs circling stellar companions. Despite their categorization, Brown Dwarfs do not have hydrogen fusion reactions inside their core, making them closer in resemblance to gas giant planets.

you would weigh the least on mars. (take in account Pluto is not a planet any more)
This question is harder than it might seem. The answer is: You would weigh less on both Venus and Mars. You would weigh more on Jupiter. As regards Saturn, you could weigh more or less depending where on the planet you were. For example, at Saturn's equator the effect of the planet's rotation would be enough to reduce your effective weight to less than your Earth weight.
you would weigh more on Jupiter because of the greater gravity
You would weigh about 2.3 times more on Jupiter than you would on earth, because of Jupiter's massive size. Your mass would remain the same though.
More than double Earths, if you weigh 100lbs on Earth, you would weigh 236.4lbs on Jupiter.
you would weigh more on jupiter!! my source is from //home.netcom.com/~sbyers11/grav11.htm to find your exact weight go to http://www.exploratorium.edu/ronh/weight/ .
The weight of matter on any planet depends upon the gravitational force of that planet. Jupiter has more gravitational force than Earth, so anything (including chocolate) would weigh more there. (Jupiter has no true surface, so you could not weigh anything there.)
Because there is more gravity pulling you down than there is on Earth.

You would weigh about 6.68 times more on Jupiter.

You don't, necessarily. On Jupiter you would weigh more than twice your weight on Earth. Your weight would be different on the different planets because the strength of gravity varies.
Jupiter has a stronger gravitational field, at its surface, than Earth. So your weight would increase. Your would weigh about 2.5 times more.
you would weigh the least on mars. (take in account Pluto is not a planet any more)
