Basically, yes. Jupiter's gravity is about 2.5 times stronger than Earth's. You'd have an extremely hard time walking or even just standing up!

The weight & composition & speed of revolution of the gasses contained in the atmosphere would simultaneously crush, burn & tear you to shreds you at the same time(hmm sounds like a good song title..).

cheers!!

Yes, this is possible. A probe flew down past Jupiter's atmosphere and was crushed in under an hour from the pressure. yes it is. Jupiter is 318 times more massive than the Earth, and as such the gravity would cause any Earth-based life to implode.

Technically no, gravity won't crush you no matter how strong it is. The problem is the fact that the surface stops you from falling any further. Maybe it's kind of the same as the fact that falling off a building never hurts anyone, the problem is the sudden stop at the bottom.

What planet would you more then double your weight on?

Jupiter- it has the largest gravitational force at 22


What would the object's mass and weight on Jupiter be?

Well, first you would have to find the object's mass and weight. Since the gravitational force on Jupiter is approximately 2.3 times the gravitational force, you would have to multiply the mass times 2.3 and the weight times 2.3.


Which planet would a spaceship need the largest force to take off?

Weight = mass * gravitational field strength W = mg The force to lift off is the force to overcome the force of weight. As the mass doesn't change, the only variable affecting W is g, the gravitational field strength. Which planet has the highest gravitational field strength, and that is your answer. (you probably have this in a data book or something, for reference, earth's gravitational field strength is 9.81 ms^-2 , sometimes simplified to 9.8 or 10) Once you have worked out your answer, you should have got the planet: Jupiter. I hope this helped, Ibraheem.U


Why would you weigh more on Jupiter?

The gravitaional forces on Jupiter are greater than here on Earth, so the force on your body is greater. This increases your weight. Your mass remains the same though. Force(or weight) = mass * acceleration. Acceleration is gravitational constant. On earth it is 9.81 m/s2. On Jupiter it is 24.79 m/s, or about 2.5 times that of earth..


Why would you weigh more on Jupiter than you do on Earth?

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.

Which planet would have the greatest gravitational force?

The planet that has the greatest gravitational force is Jupiter.


On what planet would you weigh the most WHY?

Jupiter, because its gravitational force is the greatest.

Did voyager 2 changed its direction using Jupiter's gravitational force?

Yes. The gravitational force of Jupiter was used to accelerate the spacecraft and change it's direction so that it would encounter Saturn. At Saturn the same technique was used to send the spaceraft to Uranus.


Does a chocolate weigh more on Jupiter or Earth?

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.)

Why could you not live on Jupiter?

because there is no oxygen on Jupiter, and one would suffocate.And also because we are so used to earth's amount of gravity, Jupiter's gravity force would just crush us.


Which planet would an object weigh the most?

I believe that The planet which you would weigh most on would be Jupiter, as it is a much larger planet then earth its Gravitational force is much greater and it is also the largest planet in the solar system which would make it with the largest Gravitational force


On what planet would a person weight the most mercury Saturn or Jupiter?

A person would weigh the most at Jupiter. Next comes Saturn and then Mercury. Although the mass of the person remains the same, the weight varies. Weight is solely dependent on the gravitational force of a planet. Since Jupiter is the largest among the given three planets, it has the largest gravitational force. Hence the person would weigh the highest at Jupiter. Next comes Saturn in size, where the weight of the person would be slightly lower than that at Jupiter. He would weigh the lowest at Mercury since it is the smallest.


Can you attract Jupiter with a magnet as big as it?

I am not quite sure, but I believe that if you had another planet just like Jupiter, the gravitational force would be far more powerful than any magnetism.
