Aluminum is used to make airplanes and Cast iron is used to make weightlifting equipment Why do the densities of these metals make them useful for these purposes?

Alumninium is low-density and yet has good tensile strength. In Weightlifting equipment, the primary issue is density. Different goals.
the cast iron is what makes the weights heavy, so when lifting your building muscles the aluminum made with the plane needs the strong density so it can support everything that is inside of the plane.

Why does the density of aluminum make it more useful for making airplanes?
The density of aluminum is 2,7 g/cm3. To be lighter aircraft need materials with very low densities.
Why are airplanes made out of aluminum?
Airplanes are made out of aluminum alloys because weight is such an important factor in aircraft design. Aluminum and aluminum alloys are much lighter than other metals.
What metal is used in building airplanes?
Primarily aluminum and aluminum alloys.
What elements are used to build airplanes Hydrogen Magnesium Aluminum or carbon?
aluminum
What part of airplanes uses aluminum?
the engine
What lightest metal is used in airplanes?
Aluminum
What metal is used in airplanes for its lightweight properties?
Aluminum
8 letter word for what are airplanes made out of?

Is aluminum used in military airplanes?
Yes. Several aluminum alloy's particularly 7075 series
What are some things that are made of aluminum?
Many things are made from aluminum. A few of these are; kitchen utensils, airplanes, foil.
Why aluminum in airplanes?
A stronger type of aluminum is used because it is light enough for the airplane to fly and it's very durable
Why are aroplanes made from aluminum alloy rather than pure aluminum?
Pure aluminum is not strong enough as building material for airplanes. Alloy with Al are stronger.
