What is the surface gravity of Jupiter in meters per second squared?

Jupiter’s surface gravity is approximately 24.79 m/s². This is about 2.5 times Earth’s standard gravity of 9.81 m/s², so an object would experience much more gravitational pull near Jupiter than near Earth.

Jupiter does not have a solid surface like Earth. The quoted value is a conventional reference measured near the level in its atmosphere where the pressure is approximately one bar. Deeper inside the planet, pressure and temperature rise dramatically, and hydrogen gradually changes from gas to liquid and eventually to electrically conducting metallic hydrogen.

The value is also an average-style reference rather than an identical force everywhere. Jupiter’s rapid rotation slightly reduces effective gravity near its equator, while gravity is stronger toward the poles. Its enormous mass—more than 300 times Earth’s—creates the powerful gravitational field, although its large radius spreads that mass over a much bigger volume.

The figure is often confused with Earth’s 9.81 m/s² or with Jupiter’s escape velocity. Escape velocity is a speed, not an acceleration, and is approximately 59.5 km/s at Jupiter’s reference level.
