A kilogram of butter and a kilogram of lead weigh the same—both are one kilogram. The difference lies in their density and volume; lead is much denser than butter, so a kilogram of lead takes up much less space than a kilogram of butter. However, in terms of weight, they are equal.
They both weight a kilogram. Lead has a higher density.
One kilogram of feathers has a greater volume than one kilogram of lead. This is because feathers are much less dense than lead, so it takes a larger amount of space to contain the same mass. While both weigh the same—1 kilogram—the lead will occupy a much smaller volume compared to the bulkiness of the feathers.
They both weigh one kg, so they should have the same weight.
The density of a material is defined as its mass per unit volume. A given volume of lead has more mass than a given volume of feathers. In common usage mass often refers to weight, but that is not a very exact usage of it. For this question it may be useful however to think of a given weight of lead per volume and a given weight of feathers.If you have a kg of lead, that is a small piece, a kg of feathers is a large amount.So for a given volume, say a cubic centimeter, the weight of lead is much more than the weight of feathers.
Both 1 kg of feathers and 1 kg of lead have the same mass, which is 1 kilogram. However, feathers have a much lower density than lead, meaning that 1 kg of feathers will occupy a significantly greater volume than 1 kg of lead. Therefore, 1 kg of feathers has a greater volume than 1 kg of lead.
They both weight a kilogram. Lead has a higher density.
They both weigh the same: 1kg = 1kg. The kg of butter has a greater volume and the kg of lead has a higher density.
Butter has greater volume than lead because butter has more mass.
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.
This statement is incorrect. A kilogram of lead always weighs the same as a kilogram of air since they both have a mass of one kilogram. However, lead is denser than air, so a kilogram of lead will occupy less space compared to a kilogram of air.
Both would weigh 1 Kilogram with a difference of volume.
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 ?
A kilogram of butter as it is less dense than lead.
erm, 49 kg?
One kilogram of feathers has a greater volume than one kilogram of lead. This is because feathers are much less dense than lead, so it takes a larger amount of space to contain the same mass. While both weigh the same—1 kilogram—the lead will occupy a much smaller volume compared to the bulkiness of the feathers.
Volume is the amount of 3-dimensional space occupied by an object and has nothing whatsoever to do with the molecular composition of the object. The volume of a 1" x 1" x 1" cube of lead is exactly the same as the volume of a 1" x 1" x 1" cube of butter or a 1" x 1" x 1" cube of anything for that matter. Lead and butter have a great many differences, but volume isn't a measure of any of them.
Its the same, a ton is a ton, it doesnt matter if it's butter or lead. The weight is the same, however, the density is different.
