Note: You mass never changes
Quote that when you are on a different planet, it means that the gravity changes and weight is the amount of gravity is pulling on the object or body
Mercury- 3.77m/s/s (-62.2% change compared to Earth's)
Venus- 8.76 m/s/s (-9.4%)
Earth- no change, same
Mars- 3.71 m/s/s (-62.1%)
Jupiter- 24.78 m/s/s (+252.2%)
Saturn- 10.44 m/s/s (+106.5%)
Uranus- 8.69 m/s/s (-11.3%)
Neptune- 11.15m/s/s (+113.7%)
Pluto- 0.65m/s/s (-93.3%)
The number depends on what planet and what person.
In order to give you a number, we'll take the example of the earth and me.
Mass of earth: 5.97 x 1024 kg
Mass of me: 85.3 kg
Mass of earth = (5.97 x 1024 / 85.3) = 7.0008 x 1022 (rounded)
The mass of the earth is 70,008,000,000,000,000,000,000 as much as my mass. (rounded)
(Actually 1 less, because my mass is included in the earth's mass.)
Other things being equal, you will weigh more on a more massive planet. However, the density of the planet, or its diameter (whichever of the two you prefer to concentrate on - more diameter means less density) also play a role. For example, on the "surface" of Saturn (that would be the upper atmosphere - the atmosphere just gets denser and denser as you go inside) you would weigh less than on Earth, even though Saturn is much more massive than Earth. This is related to Saturn's extremely low density.
To get specific numbers, remember the law of gravitation - the force of gravitation is proportional to the masses involved, but it is also inversely proportional to the square of the distance. Use the center of the planet for the "distance". Thus, if a planet is 100 times as massive as Earth, but the radius is 10 times more, the radius (squared) would compensate for the larger mass. Note that such a planet would be much less massive than Earth; at the same density, at 10 times the radius it would be 1000 times more massive. This is more or less the situation with Saturn.
Yes, but to be precise, the surface gravity depends on the mass AND on the diameter. Or alternatively, on the density AND on the diameter.
Yes, the force of gravitational attraction of a planet is directly proportional to the planet's mass.
Mass is a property of a planet.
No. The strength of surface gravity on a planet depends on its size and mass.
A natural moon is one that was formed at the same time as the parent planet. Its mass will always be less than the planet it orbits.
The mass of the planet, the mass of the sun and the distance between the two.
There is a mathematical relationship between gravity and weight not mass. Mass is some thing that you always have, it doesn't change. But weight is determined by the size of the planet that they are on, bigger planets like Saturn and Jupiter get more gravity therefore making a person's weight differ
A planet revolves around a star, and is bigger in mass than the planetoid Pluto; that is, nearly the mass of Mercury or larger. A satellite revolves around a planet, and is smaller than the planet.
The relative strength of its gravitational pull is directly proportional to the planet's mass.
No. The strength of surface gravity on a planet depends on its size and mass.

The weight of an object on the surface of a planet depends on ...-- The mass of the object.-- The mass of the planet.-- The distance between the center of the object and the centerof the planet, i.e. the planet's radius.
well the relationship between mass and force is..........*relationship... Force=mass x acceleration
There's a very definite relationship ... which we can write as a fairly simple mathematicalformula ... between the planet's mass, its radius, and the acceleration of gravity at its surface.
The relationship between the mass of a planet and its relative strength of gravitational pull is that they are directly proportional. The equation for the force of gravity between two bodies is F = GMm/r^2, where F is the force of gravity, G is the gravitational constant, M is mass 1, m is mass 2, and r is the distance between the objects.
Describe the relationship between mass and weight.
The strength of gravity between 2 bodies depends on your mass and the planet's mass, and the distance between the center of your mass and the center of the planet's mass.
The relationship between the planet's SPEED and its distance from the Sun is given by Kepler's Third Law.From there, it is fairly easy to derive a relationship between the period of revolution, and the distance.
