The force between the two is the same - the masses and therefore the acceleration is different.
What would the acceleration of an orange be if it were at the same distance away as the center of Jupiter?
Using this formula:Gravity of Earth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
we get 9.8(6378000 / 77,875,000)² = 0.065735350991036485292261078146699 m/s²
So the orange is accelerated at the same rate at that distance
