Object Weights more in air water vacuum or hydrogen?

An object weighs less in air compared to its weight in vacuum or hydrogen, as air exerts a buoyant force on the object. The object weighs more in water than in air due to water's buoyant force. In a vacuum or hydrogen, where there is no buoyant force, the object's weight would be the same as its actual weight.


Does air weigh more than water?

No. Air weighs significantly less than water. Because of this, water will alwaysdisplace air in a container and move to the bottom.Here's a ballpark number:A handful of water is usually about 815 times as heavy as the same amountof air at sea level.


How much weight does a gallon of air hold up in water?

It is roughly the same as the weight of a gallon of water, because the bouyancy force is equal to the weight of water displaced (the weight of the air being negligible). A UK gallon of water weighs almost exactly 10 pounds, while a US gallon weighs about 8.35 pounds.


What weighs 50 percent more than a gallon of water but when its weight is reduced by 50 percent weighs less than a gallon of water?

A gallon of water weighs about 8.3 pounds. The answer is ice. Ice weighs around 12.45 pounds, which is 50% more than a gallon of water, but when it melts and its weight is reduced by 50%, it weighs around 6.225 pounds, which is less than a gallon of water.


Which weighs more a deflated balloon or inflated balloon?

An inflated balloon weighs more than a deflated one because the air inside adds mass to the balloon. When the balloon is deflated, it contains less air or no air at all, resulting in less weight.

Why are vegetables heavier after boiling?

Because water weighs more than air, so when boiled, the vegetable is filled with water

A stone weighs 9Newtons in air what does it weigh in water?

Need more info. Either the volume or density of the stone. From the info given all we know is that it will weigh less in the water than in the air.


Why does an innertube float?

An innertube floats for the same reason that a balloon filled with helium floats in the air. In a helium balloon the gas is lighter than the air. Air in an innertube weighs less than the water and therefore floats to the top. This is called buoyancy. It weighs less than the water but more than the air above the water due to the rubber of the tube. This is why it stays on the surface and does not float away into the sky.


Why does air heat faster than water?

Air heats faster than water, because of two reasons: 1.the much lower density. 1 m3 of air weighs around 1,2 kg at 20 degree Celsius, while 1m3 of fresh water weighs around 1000 kg at 20 degree Celsius. 2. The heat capacity for water is around four times more than it is for air.


Why does a swimming float float?

Because it has air in it. Air weighs less than water therefore air floats.
