What does gravity feel like of Europa?

Hello! I was wanting to know what gravity would be like on one of Jupiter's moons, specifically Europa. Would there be a massive tidal effect that takes place doe to Jupiter's massive size? If so how drastic is it? Would the entire moon be shifted towards Jupiter? Would this cause an odd speed for acceleration due to gravity?

Europa is close enough to Jupiter that it is tidally locked.  That is the same side of Europa always faces Jupiter.  Also, the moon becomes slightly elongated at its closest approach to Jupiter, and returned to mostly spherical as it moves away from its closest approach.  It is thought that this flexing can make a possible subsurface ocean.

However if you were on the surface you would experience around 13.4% of the gravity we have on Earth regardless of how close you are to Jupiter.
