How much weight 1 cubic yard of ice?

1 cubic yard of ice has a weight of 49421 pound-force.


How many pounds in 1 cubic yard of ice?

Ice weighs 57.4 pounds per cubic foot. 1 cubic yard then weighs 27 * 57.4 = 1,549.8 lb.


What is the mass in kilograms of 1 cubic meter of ice?

Answer There are 1,000,000 or 106 cc's in a cubic metre. The density of ice is 0.9167 grams per cc (at 0 °C), so there will be 106 times 0.9167 grams of ice in a cubic metre of that ice, or there will be 0.9167 times 103 kilograms of ice in a cubic metre. That means that a cubic metre of ice will weigh 916.7 kilograms.


How much does 1 cubic foot of crushed ice weigh?

It depends how small it is crushed and how tightly it's packed. The smaller it's crushed and more tightly it's packed, the heavier it is as there is more ice and less space between the pieces of ice. In the most finely crushed and firmly packed volumes of the frozen stuff, the cubic foot of crushed ice will approach being a solid block. A cubic foot of water weighs about 62.4 pounds. A solid block of ice of the same volume weighs about 57.5 pounds. A cubic foot of "normal" crushed ice might weigh 35 to 45 pound range. And it could weigh more or less.


Ice has a density of 92gcm3 What is the mass in kg of 20m3 if ice?

Ice has a density of 916,8 kilograms per cubic meter or 0.9128 grams per cubic centimeter. 20 cubic meters of ice weigh then 20 times 916,8 = 18336 kilograms = 18.336 tonnes.


Which weigh more water or ice?

It depends how much water and how much ice you hae. if you have 1 ice cube and 6 cups of water, the water will weigh more. But, if you have 10 ice cubes and 1/4 cup of water the ice will weigh more.


How long would it take for 1 cubic yard of ice to melt?

It depends on the ambient temperature, and the rate of air circulation.


What does 12 sq in x 1 in ice weigh?

For a rough idea, we'll assume at first that ice has the same density as water ...62.43 pounds per cubic foot at its maximum density.The volume described in the question is 12 x 1 = 12 cubic inches = 1/144 cubic foot,so it would weigh 6.937 ounces.But wait ! We all know that ice doesn't weigh as much as water ... it floats in water.The only density I could find for ice is 0.9167 gm/cm3 right at the freezing point, andif I intend to pursue this answer to its logical conclusion, I guess I'll have to do thewhole labor-intensive conversion.The result I got says that 0.9167 gm/cm3on Earth = 57.23 pound/cubic footAt that rate, your 1/144 cubic foot of ice weighs only 6.359 ounces.


How much does a 10' x 10' x 2' slab of ice weigh?

ice weighs approx 57.4 pounds per cubic foot 10 x 10 x 2 equals 200 cubic feet multiplied by 57.4 equals approx 11480 pounds or 5.74 tons


How much less does ice weigh than water?

8.83% for clear ice. For ice with air inclusions the ice will weigh less.The density of clear ice is 0.917 grams per cubic centimeter.*NOTE: water reaches it maximum density at 4 degrees Celsius. And it's lowest density at 100 degrees Celsius. But it is generally regarded as being 1 gram per cc.


What weighs more water or dirt?

There are lots of variables. Is it sandy, loamy, clay or mixture? Is it saturated with water or very dry? There is a very wide range, but I would expect it to weigh about 4-5 pounds a cubic foot, with a variability of several pounds either way. I think the weight-per-cubic-foot estimate above is low. Generally, a yard of topsoil is about one ton. Note that "a yard" in this case really means a cubic yard, which is 27 cubic feet. So, a cubic foot of topsoil is about 74 pounds, which seems to make sense inasmuch as a cubic foot of pure water is about 62 pounds. Depending on dirt of course but, approximately 75% of it's volume. Aggregates rule of thumb, the smaller the pieces the lighter the load per volume 1 yard of black dirt=+/- 1500lbs 1 yard of 8" boulders =+/- 3500lbs. boulders or compressed mass.
