Due to gravitational time dialation.... humans would actually age slower on Jupiter then say... on earth. This is because the more gravity there is, the slower time moves because gravity is the warping of space-time. Now if you somewhow lived on jupiter (not possible really because of the lack of surface, high gravity, and pressure), it would seem people on earth would age faster. I'm not sure on the differences but it would probably only be in seconds over a lifetime.

No, in that a year on Jupiter is longer than a year on Earth. Now, if you are referring to physiological age, it would be equal. This is, of course, following the assumption that the atmospheric content and temperature of Jupiter was hospitable to human beings.

No. Human aging does not have to do with the rotational velocity of a planet. Assuming that someone could actually survive on Jupiter, they would live just as long as they would on Earth.

Depends on what you are defining as terms.
In terms of Earth years, there is no difference. In terms of physical years of rotation I think no human will live past the age of 6 Jupiter Years.

No because jupiter takes longer to revolve around the sun so it takes longer for 1 jupiter year to occur.The conditions such as gravity make the time much slower.

Assuming he could create conditions there that he could survive, yes, but not so much that you would notice. Large masses warp space/time according to Einstiens general theory of relativity. Jupiter being more massive than the Earth, time would move a little more quickly there, you could measure it with an atomic clock

age is just determined on time, and our time is set up with the second minute hour and so on. so if you could survive on jupiter you would be the same age if you were going bye earths time. but you would live the same, even if you didnt go on earth time

No they'd die faster because Jupiter's atmosphere is not hospitable to human life.....

yes because Jupiter's years are longer than earths

yes because in jupiter u would be crushed by the weight of ur own hair
