Calculate the number of g's a person would experience if she could stand on the equator of Jupiter.?

Use the following astronomical data for Jupiter: m = 1.9 X 10 ^ 27 kg, equatorial radius = 7.1 X 10 ^ 4 km, rotation period = 9 hr 55 min. Take the centripetal acceleration into account...... I found the centripetal acceleration to be about 2.199 m / s ^ 2. Can anyone finish the problem? Thanks in advance!
