What is heavier 1 kg of rocks or 1 kg of feathers?

Their masses are identical. The only thing that will be different is their volume.

Which is heavier feathers or rocks?

A pound of rocks or a pound of feathers both weigh the same. However, the density of rocks is more than that of the feathers so the rocks have a lesser volume than an equal mass of feathers.

Why is a stone heavier than a feather?

A pound of rocks on earth (not in a vacuum) is slightly heavier than a pound of feathers; this is because ‘rocks’ obviously have a higher density than ‘feathers’, assuming the feathers are loosely held and not tightly packed.

Is 1kg of feathers heavier?

One kg of feathers weighs the same as one kg of steel since in the metric system all mass measures are the same. Another form of the question is “What weighs more, one lb of feathers or one lb of gold?” The answer is one lb of feathers.

WHich is heavier 1kg cotton or 1kg stone?

A simple answer is, both are same weight. Because, a kg of cotton= a kg of stone. for ex:- If you want to weigh a bale of cotton of a kg weight, no measuring stones are available, only you had a stone available weighing a kg, then the bale of cotton = 1 kg or not.

What weighs more 100g of feathers or a 100g of bricks?

Both are equal. 100 pound is 100 pound, independent of matter.

Which is heavier 1kg cotton or 1kg stone?

Which is heavier 100kg of feathers or steel?

Both – 1 kg of feathers and 1 kg of steel will weigh the same. Their volumes are different.

What is the difference between feathers and stones in weight?

The usual book answer is that they both weigh the same. It’s wrong, assuming that the “kg” in 100kg indicates that the mass of feathers and stone is being specified. They only both weigh the same in a vacuum, but the difference is small if you weigh them in air.

Which is heavier a feather or an iron?

Indeed: On the Earth, even if only by a little, 1 kilo of iron weighs more than 1 kilo of feathers! Which is heavier a feather or a stone? The weight of an object is given by the product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity on the surface. So, the weight of both 1 kg of feather and 1 kg of stone will be same. Hence, both will weigh same.

Is a kg of feathers heavier than AKG of rocks?

A kg of rocks weighs the same as a kg of feathers, so neither is heavier than the other. The feathers will have a greater volume as they have a much lower density. As the feathers become compacted, they will take up less space.

Is the quantity of feather equal to 100 pounds?

Both are equal. 100 pound is 100 pound, independent of matter. Of course, quantity of feather will be more than that of other. But, here we are talking about weight ; which is 100 pound in both cases.
