Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Gravity in our solar system ranges from 0.38 g on Mercury and Mars to a powerful 2.528g on Jupiter.
Detailed explanation-3: -Jupiter is the biggest planet in our solar system, and so it also has the strongest gravitational field among all the planets. The only celestial object whose gravitational pull exceeds that of Jupiter is the Sun. Jupiter is roughly 318 times the mass of Earth, yet its surface gravity is not 318 times as strong.
