Same units as are used to describe the surface gravity of the Earth, the moon,
or any other body: Units of acceleration, such as meter/sec2 or feet/sec2 .
Jun 5, 2008 - The gravity on Mars is much lower than it is here on Earth, 62% lower to be more precise. ... A person weighing 100 kg here would tip the scales at 38 kg .

How does the force due to gravity on Mars compare to the force due to gravity on Earth?
The acceleration of gravity at the surface of Mars is approximately 3.7 m/s2. Earth's acceleration is 9.8 m/s2 on average. The force that gravity would exert on an object is dependent on its mass.
Would i float into space if i were on the moon?
No, there is sufficient gravity on the Moon for you to stay on the surface.
What is the force of gravity at the surface of Pluto?
There are forces of gravity between every speck of mass in the universe and every other speck of mass, no matter where they are, how far apart, or how large or small, all the time, everywhere, right now.
What is gravity on Mars compared to earth?
The gravity on the surface of Mars is approximately one third of that on the surface of Earth. Comment: I always say "about 38%".
What if the surface gravity of Jupiter?
24.79 m/s2 or 2.528 times the gravity of Earth The gravity on Jupiter is greater than the gravity on Earth because Jupiter is more massive. Although Jupiter is a great deal larger in size, its surface gravity is just 2.4 times that of the surface gravity of Earth. This is because Jupiter is mostly made up of gases. If you weigh 100 pounds on Earth, you would weigh 214 pounds on Jupiter.
What units would be used to describe the surface gravity of earth?
the atmosphere if by "surface gravity", you mean the potential energy forced upon us by gravitational pull, then it's joules. If you mean the actual force of the gravity, it's newtons. (also known as our weight.)
What would cause the gravity on the surface of mars to be greater than the gravity on the surface of the moon?
The mass
What units would you use to describe the surface area of a box measured in feet?
An area is measured in square units, so for lengths measured in feet, the area would be measured in square feet.The surface area of a box, is just the sum of the areas of each face, each of which is measured in square units.
Why is Neptune the same gravity as Saturn?
Neptune does NOT have the same gravity as Saturn. If you weighed 100 units on Earth, you would weigh 106.4 units on Saturn and 114 units on Neptune.
How would you convert specific gravity into gallons?
These are incompatible units
What would you measure in square units?
Surface area
Would you expect the force of gravity one kilometer above the moon to be stronger or weaker than the force of gravity at it's surface?
The effect of gravity would be less, a 1 kg mass at the moons surface would be under a force of 1.623 newtons, 1 km above the surface, it would be 1.621 newtons
Surface gravity of Neptune?
Neptune's gravity is 1.14 times the earths gravity. So if you weigh 100 pounds you would weigh 114 on Neptune.
What percent of Earth's gravity does Venus have?
The unit in which Gravity is measured is the 'g'. Earth is the standard an stands at 1. On Venus, the surface gravity is 0.904 g - which would be 90.4% of Earth's surface gravity - slightly less.90%
Would you be squished by extreme gravity on mars?
Not by the Martian gravity at any rate. The gravity on the surface of Mars is weaker than on Mercury.
Is there safe gravity range on venus?
The strength of gravity on the surface of Venus is about 91% of what it is on Earth, so the gravity there would be quite comfortable. Unfortunately the surface temperatures and pressures produced by the atmosphere of Venus would kill a human very quickly.
Desribe the surface of Saturn?
satern isn't a solid planit it is a gassous ball held together by gravity so there isn't realy a sold surface. if you were to stand of it you would fall trough and be crushed at the center of the planit due to the gravitaonal pressure. soi can't describe the surface as such.
