Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which planet has the most gravity?
A
Earth
B
Mars
C
Neptune
D
Jupiter
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Jupiter has the highest amount of gravity in our solar system. By India Today Web Desk: Jupiter is the largest in our Solar System, meaning it also has the highest gravity. You would weigh two and a half times on Jupiter than what you would on Earth.

Detailed explanation-2: -The gravity on Jupiter is greater than the gravity on Earth because Jupiter is more massive. Although Jupiter is a great deal larger in size, its surface gravity is just 2.4 times that of the surface gravity of Earth. This is because Jupiter is mostly made up of gases.

Detailed explanation-3: -Jupiter has a much greater mass than Earth, and therefore has a greater gravitational pull, but because our moon is so much closer to Earth than it is to Jupiter, the Earth’s gravitational pull exerts a greater force on the moon than Jupiter does.

Detailed explanation-4: -Because of this, gas giants like Jupiter have their surface gravity measured by the force of gravity at their cloud tops rather than the planet’s surface. However, other gas giants don’t have even close to as much gravity as Jupiter. Neptune comes in second at 11.15 m/s², followed by Saturn at 10.44 m/s.
