To find out one's weight on Jupiter, you have to multiply one's weight on Earth (unit doesn't matter) by 2.38. In this case, a person weighing 100 pounds on the Earth would weigh 238 pounds on Jupiter.

Edit: To be pedantic, it's "238 pounds weight". "100 pounds" is your mass which has a weight of "100 pounds weight" on Earth.

Also, the exact value for the surface gravity of Jupiter varies, depending on

the source of the data.

The best units for weight are Newtons (the unit of force) because weight is a force. However I think "pounds weight" is usually good enough. I know that

even NASA often just say "pounds" when they mean weight, in their stuff for

the general public.

-- The acceleration of gravity on Earth is 9.807 m/s2 .

-- The acceleration of gravity on Jupiter is 25.885 m/s2 .

-- The acceleration of gravity on Jupiter, and therefor the weight of

an object taken there from Earth, is 2.639 times what it is on Earth.

-- So in order to duplicate an Earth weight, you'd want to reduce the mass

of the object when it reaches Jupiter, by the same factor of 2.639.

-- When your weight-lifter reaches Jupiter ... if he can overcome the discomforts of

daytime temperatures in the dry-ice range, constant winds at several hundreds of

mph, and poisonous atmosphere, all with no effect on his performance ... then he

expects to be able to press a mass of

100 / 2.639 = 37.893 kg.

It'll be exactly the same 980 newtons (220.5 pounds) of weight that he's familiar with.

Also, you'll want to remind him that the same effects apply to his own body,

and he may want to slim himself down before he heads over that way for the

big event. If he weighs 200 pounds on Earth and keeps the same personal bulk,

then the minute he steps out of the bus on Jupiter, he weighs 528 pounds !

That's another thing that could impact his performance, d'ya reckon ?

If you weighed 100 pounds on Earth, then you would weigh about 235 pounds on Jupiter. This is because Jupiter's gravity is stronger than the gravity on Earth.

That can't be answered because the weight lifter could not stand on the part that we can see, which is the top of a very thick cloud layer.

On which planet would a person weigh the most?

A person would weigh the most on Jupiter, since Jupiter has the strongest gravitational pull. If it were possible to stand on Jupiter's liquid core, or swim in its liquid core, we could say that a person would weigh the most on Jupiter.However, since Jupiter is actually a gas planet, there technically is no "on Jupiter". Earth is the most massive terrestrial planet in the solar system, so a person would weigh more on Earth than "on" any other planet.In other stellar systems you would weigh more on Brown Dwarfs circling stellar companions. Despite their categorization, Brown Dwarfs do not have hydrogen fusion reactions inside their core, making them closer in resemblance to gas giant planets.

On what planet would a person weight the most mercury Saturn or Jupiter?

A person would weigh the most at Jupiter. Next comes Saturn and then Mercury. Although the mass of the person remains the same, the weight varies. Weight is solely dependent on the gravitational force of a planet. Since Jupiter is the largest among the given three planets, it has the largest gravitational force. Hence the person would weigh the highest at Jupiter. Next comes Saturn in size, where the weight of the person would be slightly lower than that at Jupiter. He would weigh the lowest at Mercury since it is the smallest.
