They total the same, a handful of sand for example would weigh more than a handful of feathers but because they both add up to a specific weight neither is heavier than the other there would just be more feathers than sand..
2000 pounds.
1 cubic meter = 35.3 cubic feet sand weighs 100 pounds per cu ft 35.3 x 100 = 3530 pounds 1 ton = 2000 pounds 3530/2000 = 1.76 tons
A kilogram of sand takes up much less space than a kilogram of feathers because sand is denser than feathers. Density refers to how much mass is contained in a given volume. Since sand particles are heavier and more compact than feathers, they occupy less space for the same mass.
1 ton = 2000 pounds 2000/60 = 33.3 bags of 60 pounds to make 1 ton
Because sand is a more dense substance than feathers - it has a larger mass-to-volume ratio.
a cup is considered a liquid measurement, not weight. eg: what is heavier, a cup of feathers or a cup of sand?
Is this supposed to be a trick question? 20 pounds of feathers be the same weight as 20 pounds of sand? They're both 20 pounds.
both are the same ther 1 pond
They are equal weight.
a grain of sand. air can knock you over if it is windy. or if you are just really light... :-( I am. 70 pounds and 22 years old! Never mind...
2000 pounds
The price will depend on the quality of the sand and also on where you are trying to buy it.
2000 pounds.
yes sand is heavier than water:)
Clay is heavier than sand since its density and its moisture content cause it to be heavier.
SAND SAND
I don't know the density of sand so I'll extimate. 1 cubic ft of water weighs 62.4 pounds. Sand weighs about 2.2 times as much as water. so 1 cft would weigh 62.4x2.2 = 137.28 lbs. I'll round to 140 1 ton of feathers is 2000 lbs, so is 1ton of sand. 2000 / 140 = 100/7 = 14.3 cubic feet.
