The chart above shows approximations of the acceleration due to gravity in meters per second squared (
) for the eight planets in our solar system. The weight of an object on a given planet can be found by using the formula W mg = , where W is the weight of the object measured in newtons, m is the mass of the object measured in kilograms, and g is the acceleration due to gravity on the planet measured in (
)
