What is the gravity on Jupiter compared to Earth?

A:

Every planet in the solar system has a different gravitational pull, which is why your weight is different on different planets. Jupiter is a massive planet, so it has a massive gravitational pull. Jupiter's gravity is 2.4 times that of earth - so if you weighed 100 kg (220 lbs) here, you would weigh 240 kg (529 lbs) there.
