What else can I help you with?
Is the mass of 1 liter of feathers greater than the mass of 1 liter of nails?
The mass of 1 liter of feathers is less than the mass of 1 liter of nails. This is because feathers are less dense than nails, meaning they have less mass per unit volume. The mass of an object is directly proportional to its density and volume, so even though both 1 liter of feathers and 1 liter of nails occupy the same volume, the nails will have a greater mass due to their higher density.
Is a pound of nails heavier than a pound of feathers?
No, a pound is a pound regardless of what it is measuring. Both a pound of nails and a pound of feathers weigh the same amount.
Why is one pound of nails the same as 1 pound of feathers?
It is rather a trick question. People are thrown off by the feathers (light things) and nails (heavier things) but pound are pounds. The pound of feathers will most likely be larger in volume than the pound of nails.
Which is heaviest a pound of gold a pound of nails or a pound of feathers?
The nails and feathers are tied for heaviest, and the gold is lighter than either of the others. The reason for that is the fact that gold is weighed in a different kind of pounds. The 'troy' pound has only 82% the weight of the 'avoirdupois' pound used to measure almost everything else. If they were all measured in the same kind of pounds, then they would all have the same weight.
Why is feather lighter than stone?
Feathers are lighter than stones because they have a lower density. Density is the amount of mass in a given volume, and feathers are less dense than stones because they contain more air pockets and less solid material. This difference in density causes feathers to weigh less than stones of the same size.
Is a pound of feathers lighter than a pound of bricks?
No. They are equal mass as they both weighed a pound.
Why do birds have feathers instead of fur?
It keeps them warm silly head... Feathers are also much lighter than fur and are more aerodynamic (streamlined).
Which is lighter scandium or vanadium?
Scandium is lighter than vanadium. Scandium has an atomic mass of 21. the atomic mass of vanadium is 51.9.
I think dogs don't have feathers on them because they only have fur?
Dogs don't have feathers mainly because they're mammals. Birds (which are not mammals) have feathers because they're lighter and more aerodynamic than fur, making it easier to fly, but fur is warmer than feathers, meaning that it's useful for mammals.
How many feathers would be the equivalent to a ton of bricks?
there is no way of actually telling other than counting and weighing them out but taking the weight of a average feather and multiplying. It is about 1.5 billion feathers per TON.
How many tons in 383 cubic feet?
It depends on what substance you are measuring, 383feet3 of feathers will be a lot lighter than 383feet3 of lead
How does a pound of bricks and a pound of feathers compare?
-- The bricks and the feathers have the same weight.-- The bricks and the feathers have the same mass.-- The feathers have more volume than the bricks.-- The bricks have more density than the feathers.-- Neither the package of bricks nor the package of feathers is edible.-- The bricks definitely sink in water, whereas the feathers may float on water.-- When dropped through air, the feathers fall slower than the bricks, because of air resistance.-- I'm guessing that the feathers cost more than the bricks.
