If you had a perfect scale, that could read to, say, the millionth decimal place, and you used it for each, then the lead would weigh more, because its center would be closer to the center of the earth.

Which weighs more a kilogram of feathers or 2.3 pounds of lead?

A kilogram of feathers is 1kg 2.3 pounds of lead is 1.04326245 kilograms Using Newton's First Law We have that Fnet = ma This meaning that the net force of the 2 items is due to the product of the objects mass and the acceleration which acts upon it. The result is measured in Newtons. The acceleration in this case is gravity which is 9.8 m/s2 average here in the earth, this value changes due to the position the object is in the earth, the closer you are to the equator the closer you are to 9.8 m/s2. Now We have that 1kg of feathers weights = (1kg) * (9.8m/s2) = 9.8 N 1.04326245 kg of lead weights = (1.04326245kg) * (9.8m/s2) = 10.22397201 N Now we can conclude that 2.3 lbs of lead weight more than 1kg of feathers.


Why does 1kg of lead be less awkward to carry around than 1kg of feathers?

One kilogram of lead is denser than one kilogram of feathers, so it takes up less space. This makes it easier to carry the lead compared to the same weight of feathers, which would occupy much more volume and be more cumbersome.


Which weighs more a kilogram of stones or a kilogram of feathers or are they the same weight?

Think about what you just asked and feel ashamed. A kilogram is a measurement of weight. If you have two items of both exactly 1 kilogram, they weight the same!


What weighs more a kilogram of butter or kilogram of lead?

They weigh the same, as both are 1 kilogram. The weight is determined by the mass of the objects, and in this case, they are both 1 kilogram.


Would the volume of 1 kilogram of feathers have the same volume of 1 kilogram of gold?

The weight of 1 kilogram of feathers has the same weight as one kilogram of gold, because they both weigh the same. Now, they do not have the same volume at all, think about it, to make a kilogram of feathers you need a whole lot of them right? yes is the answer. Now try to picture one kilogram of gold... if you can't, just google it. So a kilogram of gold woudn't have the same volume as the feathers, and the feathers would have the most volume.

Which is greater a kilogram of butter or a kilogram of lead?

Their masses are the same, so they have the same weigh whenever they're both on the same planet. A kilogram is a kilogram, no matter what form it takes. 1 kilogram is the exact same measure. Its like asking which is longer, a centimeter of chalk or a centimeter of candy. It's also the same as asking: What weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of lead ?
