Answer: A person’s Mass will be the same on Jupiter and Earth. A person’s Weight will be greater on Jupiter than on Earth.

Explanation:

Amount of matter contained in a body is known as mass (m). It is measured in grams or kilo-grams.

Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object. It is the product of the mass and acceleration due to gravity. It is measured in Newtons (N).

W = m g

Acceleration due to gravity varies with strength of gravity of different planets. Because, Jupiter’s strength of gravity is greater than Earth’s strength of gravity, the person would have greater weight on Jupiter than on Earth but same mass. Mass is constant everywhere.
