A person would weigh more on Jupiter than on the Earth because _?_.

• Jupiter has more mass, and therefore more gravity

• Jupiter has less mass, and therefore more gravity

• Jupiter has more mass, and therefore less gravity

• Jupiter has less mass and therefore less gravity

Which System has the greater gravitational pull between the two objects?

• System 1

• System 2

• There is no gravitational attraction between the two objects. their mass is too small.
