Question

The planet Jupiter is about 300 times as massive as Earth, but an object on its surface would weigh only 2.5 times as much as it would on earth. Can you come up with an explanation?

Answer 1

here you go

Step-by-step explanation:

so it might seem that a body on the surface of Jupiter would weigh 300 times as much as on Earth. ... But the radius of Jupiter is about 10 times that of Earth, weakening gravity by a factor of 100, resulting in 3 times its Earth weight.
