What is the force of gravity on mars?

Calculating Martian Gravity: Scientists have calculated Mars' gravity based on Newton's Theory of Universal Gravitation, which states that the gravitational force exerted by an object is proportional to its mass. read more

In Mars’ case, this evidence points towards it once having a viable atmosphere and liquid water on its surface. At the same time, our two planets are really quite different, and in a number of very important ways. One of these is the fact that gravity on Mars is just a fraction of what it is here on Earth. read more

The FORCE of gravity will also depend on the mass: weight (which is the force of gravity) = mass x (gravitational field). The gravitational field on Mars's surface is about 3.7 meters / second square = 3.7 newton / kilogram. read more

Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and is similar to the Earth in many respects. The gravitational force of a planet is proportional to its mass, and Mars is much smaller than the Earth. The planet has a diameter that is equal to only about half of Earth's diameter, and it has only a tenth of the density of Earth. read more

On top that, the gravity on Mars’ surface is much lower than it is here on Earth – 62% lower to be precise. At just 0.376 of the Earth standard (or 0.376 g), a person who weighs 100 kg on Earth would weigh only 38 kg on Mars. read more
