Gravity is always dependent on the mass of the objects involved.

Earth's mass is 5.98 * 10^24

Jupiter's mass is 1900 * 10^24

(Note: '^' symbol means "to the power of", ie 10^24 means a '1' followed by 24 zeros). Oh, and I found these figures on the website "http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasci/ast99/ast99227.htm"

So because both values have 10^24 as their order of magnitude we can simply compare 5.98 to 1900...

1900 / 5.98 = 317.72blahblahblah

So the effect of the gravitational force on Jupiter will feel like it is roughly 318 times as stronger as that on earth.

Why is Jupiter the hardest planet to take off from if your in a spaceship?

Jupiter's strong gravity and immense size make it difficult for a spaceship to achieve escape velocity needed to overcome its gravitational pull. Additionally, Jupiter's thick atmosphere creates drag that further hinders spacecraft from leaving its orbit.


What is gravity of Jupiter compared to the earth?

Since Jupiter has 317 times the mass of Earth, its gravitational attraction at any given distance is also 317 times greater. On the other hand, the surface gravity (please note that Jupiter doesn't have a proper "surface", though) is approximately 2.5 times that of Earth.

What percent of earths gravity does sun have?

The Sun's gravity is about 28 times stronger than Earth's gravity at the surface of the Earth. However, because the Sun is much farther away than Earth's own radius, its gravitational influence on Earth is significantly weaker compared to Earth's own gravitational pull.


What is the gravity of Callisto?

Callisto, one of Jupiter's moons, has a surface gravity of about 0.126 times that of Earth, or 1.235 m/s². This means that objects on Callisto weigh less than they would on Earth due to the weaker gravitational force.
