The acceleration of gravity on the surface of Mars is 3.7 m/sec2 (12.1 ft/sec2).
That's about 38% of the acceleration of gravity on the surface of earth.
So for every 100 newtons (or 100 pounds) that something weighs on earth,
it would weigh about 38 newtons (or 38 pounds) on Mars.
On Mars, the forces can be balanced or unbalanced depending on the specific situation. For instance, a stationary object on the surface experiences balanced forces, as gravitational force and normal force are equal. However, if an object is in motion, such as a rover driving over uneven terrain, the forces acting on it can be unbalanced. Overall, the balance of forces on Mars is context-dependent, similar to Earth.
Mars' moons, Phobos and Deimos, stay in their orbits around Mars due to a combination of Mars' gravitational pull and their initial velocity when they were captured by Mars' gravity. The gravitational force from Mars keeps them in orbit, preventing them from flying off into space.
Mars' gravitational pull is 3.7m/s^2(3.7 meters per second squared) as opposed to Earth's gravitational pull which is 9.81m/s^2(9.81 meters per second squared). The closest you can get to mars is in 2050 with 56 millon killometers
The gravitational pull of Mars helps keep the Earth in it's orbit.
The order of gravitational forces of the planets in the solar system is generally from highest to lowest: Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus, Earth, Venus, Mars, Mercury. This order is based on the mass of the planets and their distance from the sun.
Mars has a gravitational force of 3.7m/s2.
The belt of asteroids between Mars and Jupiter exists due to the gravitational forces of Jupiter preventing the formation of a planet in that region.
If you could do the measurements at the same distance from both planets, you'd find that the gravitational forces between you and Mars would only be about 11 percent as strong as the forces between you and the Earth.
The mutual forces of gravitational attraction between Mars and the sun are what keeps Mars in orbit around the sun, just like Earth and every other permanent member of the solar system.
Mars' moons, Phobos and Deimos, stay in their orbits around Mars due to a combination of Mars' gravitational pull and their initial velocity when they were captured by Mars' gravity. The gravitational force from Mars keeps them in orbit, preventing them from flying off into space.

yesThe gravity on mars is not as strong as it is on earth.
The average gravitational acceleration on Mars is approximately 3.7 m/s^2, which is about 0.38 times the gravitational acceleration on Earth. This means objects on Mars weigh less compared to on Earth due to the weaker gravitational pull.
Mars' gravitational pull is 3.7m/s^2(3.7 meters per second squared) as opposed to Earth's gravitational pull which is 9.81m/s^2(9.81 meters per second squared). The closest you can get to mars is in 2050 with 56 millon killometers
because of mars's gravitational pull
The gravitational pull of Mars helps keep the Earth in it's orbit.
Mars exerts a stronger gravitational force on Phobos than Deimos because Phobos is larger and closer to Mars than Deimos. This closer proximity results in a stronger gravitational pull between Mars and Phobos.
