How heavy would a cinder block be on Ceres?

Cinder blocks come in different sizes and weights, so in order to answer this question let's assume that the cinder block is a "light weight" version, which weighs about 28lbs here on Earth. Ceres, which is a dwarf planet (or "planetoid"), has a surface gravity of 0.27 m/s^2. Thus, a cinder block would weigh 0.7706lbs on Ceres.


How do you stop dampness in the garage that has cinder block walls?

You'll need sealing paint specifically for that purpose. Cinder blocks are very pourous.


How cinder block is made?

Cinder blocks differ from concrete blocks in other ways besides their hollow design. Concrete blocks are made from slurry of Portland cement and small aggregate, such as small stones or gravel. Cinder blocks, on the other hand, are made from a combination of Portland cement and cinders, the dusty remnants of burned coal. The result is a lighter weight block formed into a rectangular masonry block. Although many people use the terms "cinder blocks" and "concrete blocks" interchangeably, a true cinder block will always be lighter than a concrete block, and the texture of cinder blocks may be rougher than finished concrete blocks. When bricklayers work with cinder blocks, they generally use techniques similar to standard brick lying. The alternative rows of cinder blocks are carefully offset so that the second layer stabilizes the first. A line of mortar is put down between cinder blocks, so the actual dimensions of a standard cinder block may be adjusted slightly to accommodate the mortar. Corners may be finished out with half blocks, or interlaced to create a four-cornered structure.


What has more inertia a balloon or a cinder block?

Inertia is the ability of the object to resist changes in the state of motion. It would be harder to push a cinder block and make it accelerate. Therefore, the cinder block has more inertia. The more mass, the more inertia.

What does an 8 x 10 x 16 concrete block weigh Is there a difference between a concrete block a concrete cinder block?

It weighs 59 lbs. There is a difference between a "real" cinder block and a concrete block. A cinder block uses cinders--ash from the burning of coal--as its aggregate. Concrete blocks are made from concrete. Concrete block is far stronger than is cinder block, and some jurisdictions prohibit the use of cinder block. The only justification for cinder block is that it weighs less than concrete block, which is important if the ground you're building on isn't strong enough to support a heavy structure. This justification has gone away, because now you can buy concrete block made from expanded-shale aggregate that's as light as cinder block and as strong as standard-weight concrete masonry.
