I don't know the specific data, but I can tell you that g (acceleration due to gravity) = Gm/R2, where G is the universal constant of gravitation (about 6.67-11), m is the comet's mass, and R is it's radius.

it varies depending on the mass of the comet, the greater the mass the greater the gravity as with all stellar bodies.

Is the ion tail of a comet on the top or bottom?

It is on the side of the comet furthermost from the Sun. Conventional wisdom dictates gravity defines up and down therefore it is on "top" of the comet since the comet is trapped by the gravity of the Sun.

Why did shoemaker levy 9 break up?

It got too close to Jupiter and was pulled into its gravity well. The immense gravity caused tidal forces that broke up the comet before it hit the surface of the planet.


How strong is gravity on Comet 67P?

It is 0.067g, approximately 6.7% earth's gravity. It is about 0.06m/s2


What are facts about Neptune's gravity?

There's really only one fact about Neptune's gravity that's any different from the gravity of any other planet, asteroid, comet, or star. The acceleration of gravity at the surface of Neptune is 11.257 meters/second2 . That's 14.8% greater than it is on the surface of Earth, and 6.94 times the value on the surface of the moon. Note: When dealing with gaseous bodies, the 'surface' is considered to be the depth at which the gas pressure is equal to Earth's sea-level atmospheric pressure.
