Best Answer

Yes.

The gravity of Mars is only 1/3rd of Earth's at the surface. If you weighed 120 pounds on Earth, you would only weigh 40 pounds on Mars (without a spacesuit).

Which planet would you weigh less that you do on earth Saturn Venus mars or Jupiter?

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.
