The question tells you that earth and Jupiter have something in common and is asking you to find the choice that shares that characteristic. The characteristic that earth and Jupiter have in common is that they are both planets. Find the multiple choice answer that references a planet.
There are lots of ifs in this question and answer. If the 100 pound Earth object could rest on the outer surface of Jupiter the answer would be 250 pounds. But, Jupiter is a gas planet. That is, Jupiter is primarily made of gas and liquid. So, the object could not rest on the outer surface. There may be a solid surface near it's center but no one knows. Jupiter is 318 times as heavy as Earth so if Jupiter were solid and the size of Earth the object would weigh 318 times a much or 31,800 pounds. But, it is much larger than Earth so the outer surface is much farther from the center. The farther away the object is from the center the less the object will weigh.
Things are much lighter on Earth than Jupiter, because the great mass of the planet Jupiter (Over 4 times that of Earth) creates more of a gravitational pull, which makes you more heavy in Jupiter.
Yes, a rock will weigh more on Jupiter than on Earth due to Jupiter's stronger gravitational pull. Jupiter's gravity is about 24.79 m/s², compared to Earth's 9.81 m/s², meaning that any object, including a rock, will experience greater weight on Jupiter. However, its mass remains the same regardless of the planet.
The weight of matter on any planet depends upon the gravitational force of that planet. Jupiter has more gravitational force than Earth, so anything (including chocolate) would weigh more there. (Jupiter has no true surface, so you could not weigh anything there.)
Jupiter is a large and massive planet that is thought to have reduced the number of Earth threatening meteors over the years since the solar system was formed. The large gravitational pull of Jupiter can pull these object out of their collision course with Earth, either deflecting their path, consuming them or capturing them as a moon.
It would be heavier.

Yes, an object's mass would be the same on Jupiter as it is on Earth because an object's mass remains constant regardless of the gravitational pull of the planet. However, an object's weight would be different on Jupiter due to the stronger gravitational pull compared to Earth.
The answer is 562.178 lbs (approx.). Kilogram is the SI unit of mass and pound is an imperial unit of mass. To convert from kg to pound, multiply the kg unit by 2.20462.
Jupiter is so big that the Earth would orbit Jupiter.
The correct order from largest to smallest would be: the Sun, Jupiter, Earth, and the Moon. The Sun is the largest object in our solar system, followed by Jupiter, which is the largest planet. Earth is the third largest object in this list, and the Moon is the smallest of the four.
Moving an object to Jupiter would change its weight due to the stronger gravitational pull on Jupiter compared to Earth. The object would also experience higher levels of radiation due to Jupiter's powerful magnetic field. Additionally, the object would be subject to extreme atmospheric conditions and intense pressure at Jupiter's surface.
Find what the mass here on earth is then multiply it by three
No, Jupiter is typically the 4th brightest object in the sky after the Sun, Moon, and Venus. It can vary in brightness depending on its position in its orbit and its alignment with Earth.
On a larger planet, such as Jupiter or Saturn.

Because Jupiter has a much stronger gravitational pull than Earth, an object that weighs 100 pounds on Earth would weigh approximately 236 pounds on Jupiter.
