Assuming these planets were similar In radius, which planet would an object weigh the most?

1 answer

The weight of an object depends on the mass of the planet it is on, as well as the gravitational force acting on it. The gravitational force is determined by the mass and radius of the planet.

Assuming the radius of all the planets is similar, the planet with the highest mass would result in the highest weight for an object. This is because the greater the mass of a planet, the stronger its gravitational pull.

Therefore, if all the planets have a similar radius, the planet with the highest mass would make an object weigh the most.
