Gravity behaves exactly the same on Mercury as it does on Earth. The forces between Mercury and any other mass are proportional to the product of Mercury's mass and the other mass, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between Mercury's center and the other object's center. Mercury's size is about 38% as big as the Earth's size, which would place the center of an object on its surface closer to the planet's center, and cause a greater gravitational force. But its mass is only 5.5% of Earth's mass. So the force of gravity between Mercury and an object on its surface winds up being only about 37% of the gravitational force on the same object when it's on Earth's surface. That means that a person who weighs 100 pounds on Earth would weigh 37 pounds on Mercury.

Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system with a diameter of about 86,881 miles (139,822 kilometers), which is about 11 times the diameter of Earth. In terms of mass, Jupiter is much more massive than Earth, with a mass of 318 times that of Earth.
In terms of mass, Earth is about 1400 times as massive as Haumea. In terms of volume, Earth is about 722.14 times bigger.
Earth is small compared to Neptune

Really small. 3.68x10^37% in scientific notation.
Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system with a diameter of about 86,881 miles (139,822 kilometers), which is about 11 times the diameter of Earth. In terms of mass, Jupiter is much more massive than Earth, with a mass of 318 times that of Earth.
Ok.depends on what you're talking about:Diameter: 1/3 the size of earthSurface area: 1/10 the surface area of earthVolume, 1/18 the size of earth
In terms of mass, Earth is about 1400 times as massive as Haumea. In terms of volume, Earth is about 722.14 times bigger.
Saturn's radius is 9.4 x Earth's radius (equatoral) Saturn's mass is 95.2 x Earth's mass Saturn is 9.5 times further from the Sun than the earth is
Earth is small compared to Neptune
The dwarf planet Eris truly deserves its designation as "dwarf planet"; it is less than one quarter of Earth's diameter, and about one percent of Earth's mass.
Ah, isn't that always a fascinating question to ponder? Mercury is actually quite petite when compared to Earth. It's only about one-third the size of our wonderful planet. Just remember, even the smallest things in our universe have their own unique and special presence.
Solid or terrestrial planets are those whose primary mass is land. The terrestrial planets in the Earth's solar system include Earth, Mercury, Venus, and Mars.
Mercury is about 30% the size of Earth.
