A pound of feathers has more mass. The are lighter so they would take up more space to make a pound.

If Two Objects have the same volume does this mean that both objects must have the same mass Explain?
Just because two ojects occupy the same volume does not mean that they have the same mass. For example: If I have two boxes of the same dimension (volume) and fill one with hammers and the second with feathers. are they the same mass? Of course not. another way of looking at the problem at hand would be to take a tone of hammers and a tone of feathers. which one occupies the most space? the feathers of course. so to have the same mass as the hammers, the feathers need to occupy more volume.
Is a ton of feathers the same mass as a ton of bowling balls?
Same weight different volume
How many bushels of peas equal one metric ton weight?
I'm not so sure. I hope you find it though.
What are two things you need to know to calculate density?
Mass and volume. You divide the mass by the volume to get density with the corresponding units. Mass and volume. Density = mass/volume Often, mass is in grams and volumes in milliliters. Water has a density of 1g/ml. Air has a density of about 0.0013g/ml. Lead has a density of 11.34g/ml.
Which has the greatest volume a kilogram of butter or a kilogram of lead?
Butter has greater volume than lead because butter has more mass.
Which takes up more room a pound of lead or a pound of feathers?
A pound of feathers because feathers are less dense than lead and therefore take up more volume for the same mass.
Is the mass of one pound of lead greater than less than or equal to the mass of one pound of feathers?
The mass of feathers is far greater than the lead. amount = mass So you will have a huge pile of feathers compared to a small chunk of lead to equal a pound
Why mass is not a volume?
For the same reason a pen is not a pencil. Mass = weight Volume = how much space it takes up. Ask yourself this question. What weighs more, a pound of lead, or a pound of feathers? Imagine it in your head, what each would look like and that gives you the answer.
What physical property is different about a pound of feathers and a pound of steel is it mass or density?
Density. The mass of a pound of any two materials on Earth is always the same. However, a pound of steel has far less volume for a pound than a pound of feathers. Thus, steel is far, far denser than feathers are.
Why does a kilogram of lead have a bigger density than a kilogram of feathers?
The density of a material is defined as its mass per unit volume. A given volume of lead has more mass than a given volume of feathers. In common usage mass often refers to weight, but that is not a very exact usage of it. For this question it may be useful however to think of a given weight of lead per volume and a given weight of feathers.If you have a kg of lead, that is a small piece, a kg of feathers is a large amount.So for a given volume, say a cubic centimeter, the weight of lead is much more than the weight of feathers.
What has more mass 1 kg of lead or 1 kg of feathers?
Neither!!! They both have the same mass at 1 kg. However, the feathers will occupy a greater volume.
Why the air resistance decrease the acceleration on falling object?
Drop a pound of feathers (in a bag) and a pound of lead from a height. The smaller mass of the lead will let it fall faster due to less air resistance, than the greater mass and much greater air resistance of the feathers.
Do a pound of cotton and a pound of lead have the same density?
No. Density is equal to mass over volume. It has nothing to do with the weight.
If two objects have the same mass can you assume they have the same volume Explain give example?
Two objects has got same mass means the mass of both the objects is same. It does not comment any thing about the volume of the objects. If the density of the two objects is same, then only their volume will be same. If both the objects are not made up of the same material, they have most likely to have different volume. Rarely it may be same.
What has more mass a pound of butter or a pound of feathers?
1 pound = 1 pound
What is heavier lead or steel?
1 kg of water. Water is less dense than lead. This means that the same volume of water will be lighter than the same volume of lead. Reversing this, 1kg of water will have a larger volume than 1kg of lead.
Is a pound of feathers lighter than a pound of bricks?
No. They are equal mass as they both weighed a pound.
