What else can I help you with?
What do you do to find your weight on other planets?
To find your weight on other planets, you would multiply your weight on Earth by the planet's surface gravity relative to Earth's surface gravity. For example, your weight on Mars would be your weight on Earth multiplied by 0.38, as Mars' surface gravity is 0.38 times that of Earth.
Why do you weigh more on earth that other planets?
You don't, necessarily. On Jupiter you would weigh more than twice your weight on Earth. Your weight would be different on the different planets because the strength of gravity varies.
Is there other life forms on other planets?
Earth's scientist have not found life on other planets to date.
In a geocentric theory which body do the other planets orbit?
The other planets - and all other bodies - orbit the earth.
Are there other planets is the solar system?
Yes. Besides earth there are seven other major planets and 5 recognised dwarf planets.

Is mass affected by gravity on earth and other planets?
No. Weight is affected by gravity.
Why is your gravity less on other planets?
On other planets your gravity doesn't change. Your weight however changes based on the mass of the planet. For example, on a planet with less mass than Earth, a person will weigh less than they normally do.
What is the measure of the pull of gravity on an object this property will change if this object is on a planet other than earth?
The measure of the pull of gravity on an object is its weight, which is determined by the mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity. The acceleration due to gravity varies on different planets, so the weight of an object will change if it is on a planet other than Earth.
Why do you weigh more on earth that other planets?
You don't, necessarily. On Jupiter you would weigh more than twice your weight on Earth. Your weight would be different on the different planets because the strength of gravity varies.
Will object's weight change on other planets?
Yes. Weight is a function of the planets gravity. For example. The moon is 1/6th the size of the earth, therefore it exerts 1/6ths the gravity pull on everything around it. When the astronauts went to the moon, they weighed 1/6th of what they weighed on earth. This allowed them to pick up very heavy items and jump really high.
What is your mass on other planets?
My mass would be the same on other planets as it is on Earth because mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, and it does not change depending on the location. However, my weight would vary because weight is the result of gravity, which differs on each planet.
Why does earth have gravity and other planets don't?
The other planets do have gravity.
How does mass affect the weight of somebodies weight on other planets?
The formula is:weight = mass x gravity.On Earth, "gravity" is about 9.8 meters/second2, equivalent to 9.8 newton/kilogram. That means that each kilogram has a weight of 9.8 newton. On other planets, the "gravity" part will be different. For example, on Mars, the gravity is about 3.7 newton/kilogram. Thus, a man with a mass of 100 kilogram (that's well above the average, but simplifies calculations...) would weigh about 980 newton on Earth, and about 370 newton on Mars.
Why does earth help other planets?
Since no one from Earth has visited another planet, and we have no indication that there is anyone on the other planets, Earth does not help other planets in any way. Why do you think there is something Earth does to help them- whoever them is.
What are Earth and the other planets closest to the sun are made mostly?
Earth and the other planets are mostly made of rock.
How does weight differ depending on gravity?
Weight, mathematically speaking, is just mass times acceleration due to gravity. Mass is inherent in the object being weighed, and does not change. However, gravity can change (albeit very slightly) even on different points on the earth's surface. And comparing the earth's surface to that of other planets, gravity changes radically due to the difference between Earth's mass and that of other planets. So the greater gravity is, the greater the weight of a particular object will be. This explains the difference between weights of an object on the earth versus that on other planets -gravity is different on different planets. It also explains why comparing the weights of two objects at the same point on the earth's surface shows the difference in the mass of the two objects: the acceleration due to gravity is the same, so that masses are the only things that change.
