Weight calculator

Mass is how much matter there is; weight is the force gravity puts on it. On the Moon your mass is the same but you weigh about a sixth as much.

How we worked it out

Updated as you change the numbers.

  1. Weight = mass × gravitational acceleration (W = mg); g on Earth = 9.80665 m/s² (standard gravity).

Method and assumptions

A bathroom scale shows weight as if gravity were Earth’s standard 9.80665 m/s². On another world the reading scales with its surface gravity. Values for the gas giants are at the cloud tops; Pluto’s is approximate.
