How many gallons in 20 pounds of birdseed?
It depends on what material makes the gallons and it's specific gravity.
How do you convert specific gravity 0.8349 to pounds per gallon?
For this I will use water as the unit of measure. Based on the lbs per gallon of water @ 4 degrees Celsius which is 8.33 8.33 is a specific gravity of 1 The equation to determine lbs per gallon using a basis of water lbs per gal = (sg * 8.33) So if you have 0.8349 as your specific gravity: (0.8349 * 8.33) = 6.954717 (lbs per gal) The equation to convert pounds to gallons of a different fluid that has a variable specific gravity would be: gallons = lbs / (sg * 8.33) If I have 5 pounds of a lubricant with a SG of 1.2 5 / (1.2 * 8.33) = 0.5 (gallons) http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/water-gallons-pounds-d_1710.html
If you put a five pound fish in a gallon of water does the water now weigh fifteen pounds?
A gallon of water weighs about 8.34 pounds. If you have a good sized bucket with a gallon of water in it and you put a 5-pound fish in the bucket, you'll have a bucket that weighs about 13.34 pounds (plus the weight of the bucket). That's as long as the bucket doesn't overflow. The fish will (usually) be neutrally bouyant in the water, and it will be essentially weightless in that water. But its weight will add to that of the water in the bucket. No, it won't weigh 15 pounds, but it will weigh in as suggested. However, the weight of the water itself will not change.
How much does 1 gallon of ATF weigh?
The following product has a specific gravity of 0.875:Valvoline VV353 Automatic Transmission Fluid DEXRONIII /MERCONThis means that the weight of it is 0.875 times that of an equal volume of water. Water weighs 8.34 pounds per gallon, therefore one gallon of the product mentioned above weighs 7.2975 pounds. Most transmission fluids have a similar specific gravity.
What is a good or bad specific gravity reading on a load of 100LL aviation fuel What specific gravity reading should I be looking for on a new load out of a tanker?
6.7something depending on atmospheric pressure (colder / higher pressure air, SG gets higher) Avgas 100LL is about 6.0 pounds per gallon at about 60 degrees F. And at sealevel.
How much does a 5 gal bucket of concrete weigh?
The specific gravity of limestone concrete is 2.37. Therefore 5 gallons of concrete would weigh 94.8 pounds.
If water has specific gravity 62.4 pounds per cubic feet what is the specific gravity of ice?
0.9168, or 916.8 kg/m3
20 liter bucket holds how many pounds?
Pounds of what? Tomatoes? Worms? Gold coins? Please be more specific in your question.
How do you convert volume into weight using specific gravity?
start with known values Specific gravity = 1.0 for water weight = 100 pounds 100pounds/8.36 pounds per gallon = 11.96 gallons ------------------------------------ Specific gravity = 1.5 for unknown liquid weight = 100 pounds 100pounds/ (8.36 pounds per gallon of water * 1.5) = 7.97 gallons At least that's how I wuold do it....
How much elephants would be 150000 pounds?
Depends on the gravity, and the weight of the elephants. Be more specific...
When does a specific gravity of 2.509 equal a density of 50 pounds per cubic foot?
Never. The specific gravity of a substance is its density compared to water. If that happens to be 2.509, then any amount of the substance weighs 2.509 times as much as an equal amount of water. One cubic foot of water weighs about 62.4 pounds, so one cubic foot of the substance you've described weighs about 156.6 pounds. "50 pounds per cubic foot" means that the specific gravity is about 0.80 .
What is the specific gravity of stainless steel?
Steel has a Specific Gravity of 7.83. This means that a cubic foot of steel weighs 7.83 times more than a cubic foot of water (which weighs 62.4 pounds)
How many pounds of sand will fit in a 5 gallon bucket?
The specific gravity of sand is between 90-130 lbs/cubic foot. http://www.reade.com/Particle_Briefings/spec_gra2.html#S 5 US gallons = 0.668402778 cubic feet 90 * 0.66840277 = 60.15625002 130 * 0.668402778 = 86.89236114 So, a 5 gallon bucket will hold between 60 and 87 pounds of sand, depending on how much liquid is in the sand and if it is packed down.
What is the specific gravity of aluminum in pounds?
Specific gravity is not measured in pounds. It is a dimensionless quantity, which results by dividing (in this case) the density of aliminium, by the density of a reference substance, usually water. The result of the division will be the same, whether you use international units (SI, i.e. metric), or obsolete units.
