Weight = mass * gravitational acceleration
W = mg
mass remain same everywhere
but value of g will change
so if it is n times of gravitational acceleration of earth then weight would also be in same proportion
W = n* (mg)
mg is 105 pound
W = n* 105 pound
On Sun g is 27.5 times of earth
so value of n is 27.5
W = 27.5 (105)
W = 2887.5 pound
On Mercury
W = 0.38 * 105
W = 39.9 N
On Venus
W = 0.91* 105
W = 95.55 N
On Earth W = 105 pound
On Mars
W = 0.38*105
W = 39.9 N
On Jupiter
W = 2.36 * 105
W = 247.8 N
On Saturn
W = 0.92 * 105
W = 96.6 pound
On Uranus
W = 0.91 * 105
W= 95.55 pound
On Neptune
W = 1.14 * 105
W = 119.7 Pound
On Pluto
W = 0.07*105
W = 7.35 pound
