Mercury, a planet in our Solar System, and Callisto, a moon of the planet Jupiter, are about the same size. However, Mercury’s mass is about 3 times greater than Callisto’s mass. Why could a future astronaut (perhaps you!) jump higher on Callisto than on Mercury?
Use gravitational ideas to answer this question. Write at least three sentences
You may jump higher because the more the mass of the planet, the more gravitational force. There is less mass(and gravity) on Callisto so you wouldn’t be weighed down as much and can jump higher. Whereas on Jupiter there is more weight holding you down.
