1,000 pounds of bricks and 1,000 pounds of feathers both weigh 1,000 pounds.

In other words, their weights are identical. Neither of them weighs more or less

than the other does. They weigh the same, meaning that there is no difference.

The two loads would precisely balance on a symmetrical see-saw.

Mathematically, the sum of their weights is twice the weight of either one, each is

equivalent to 100% of the other, and the difference between their weights is zero.

Expressed as a ratio, the weight of the bricks divided by the weight of the feathers

is equal to the unity fraction (1/1 = 1), and its reciprocal is the selfsame number.

As an exponential operation, the square of either one singly is equal to the product

of their individual weights. If a passerby asked you for the weight of the feathers

and you cleverly quoted the weight of the bricks instead, the fellow could not detect

your trick. The two are in all ways truly indistinguishable, and you may freely substitute

one for the other for any purpose or application.

Does 1000 bricks and feathers weigh the same?

No, 1000 bricks weigh significantly more than 1000 feathers because bricks are denser and heavier than feathers. The weight of an object depends on its mass and gravity's force acting on the object, so the weight of an object can vary based on the material it is made of.
