Assuming these planets were similar in readout which planet would an object weigh the most

1 answer

To determine on which planet an object would weigh the most, we need to consider the gravitational pull of each planet. Generally, an object's weight is calculated using the formula:

\[ \text{Weight} = \text{mass} \times \text{gravitational acceleration} \]

Here’s a general comparison of gravitational accelerations on the planets in our solar system (measured in meters per second squared):

  1. Mercury: 3.7 m/s²
  2. Venus: 8.87 m/s²
  3. Earth: 9.81 m/s²
  4. Mars: 3.71 m/s²
  5. Jupiter: 24.79 m/s²
  6. Saturn: 10.44 m/s²
  7. Uranus: 8.69 m/s²
  8. Neptune: 11.15 m/s²

Based on this data, the object would weigh the most on Jupiter, as it has the strongest gravitational pull of all the planets.
