The acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter is 23.1 m/s2, which is about twice the acceleration due to gravity on Neptune. Which statement accurately compares the weight of an object on these two planets? An object weighs about one-fourth as much on Jupiter as on Neptune. An object weighs about one-half as much on Jupiter as on Neptune. An object weighs about two times as much on Jupiter as on Neptune. An object weighs about four times as much on Jupiter as on Neptune.

    The correct answer is ' An object weighs about two times as much on Jupiter as on Neptune'. Acceleration due to gravity is the speed at which a body naturally falls as a result of the pull of gravity. Any object with mass exerts gravitational pull. The more massive an object it the greater the pull of gravity. If Jupiter's acceleration due to gravity is twice that of Neptune it can be deduced that Jupiter is more massive than Neptune.
