How Much Do You Weigh ? How much do you weigh? Your weight depends upon where you are. If you were in orbit around the earth, far away from Earth’s gravitational pull, you would be weightless and would float. Mass is the amount of matter that makes up an object. The gravitational pull depends upon mass. Even a pencil has mass. Thus, it has gravitational pull, but since it is far less than the earth’s mass, it falls to the ground when you drop it. If you were to visit other planets and moons with more or less mass then Earth’s a scale would show that you weigh a different amount that you do on Earth. Complete the chart to find out how much you would weigh on the planets in our solar system and on the moon.
