A kg is a kg so they are the same.
This riddle only works for a pound of gold and a pound of feathers
Precious metals such as gold are measured in troy weight. A troy pound is 12 troy ounces, and each troy ounce is 480 grains, making a total of 5760 grains to the pound of gold.
Most materials use pounds and ounces from the avoirdupois system, and such a standard pound is made up of 16 ounces, where each ounce is 437.5 grains, making a total of 7000 grains to the pound of feathers.
All this means that a "pound" of feathers (or bricks, or lead) is heavier than a "pound" of gold.
What else can I help you with?
Which weighs more a pound of feathers or a pound of iron?
Neither. They both weigh 1 pound.
Describe why one kg of iron in comparision to one kg of cotton takes less space?
Since one Kg of iron is much more dense (the weight is concentrated in a smaller area) than cotton, it takes up less space.
Does a pound of peathers weight more than a pound of iron . what truly is the difference between the two?
No. They weigh the same (each weighs a pound). The difference is their densities because a pound of iron has got a much smaller volume than a pound of feathers.
What weighs more a pound of gold or a kilogram of silver?
A kilogram of silver weighs more.
What weighs more 2000 lbs of cotton or a ton of steel?
It depends which ton you use. In the UK 1 ton = 1 long ton = 2240 lb → a ton of steel weighs more than 2000 lb of cotton. In the US 1 ton = 1 short ton = 2000 lb → both are the same (A "metric ton", or "tonne" is 1000 kg which is approx 2205 lb, a little less than 1 long ton.)
What weighs more a pound of cotton or a pound of nails?
A pound of any substance, material or "stuff" weighs the same as a pound of anything else. A pound is a pound, whether it's cotton or nails.
10kg cotton weighs more or 10kg iron?
Both 10kg of cotton and 10kg of iron weigh the same, as they both have a mass of 10kg. The difference in the amount of space each material occupies may make it seem like one weighs more than the other, but in terms of weight, they are equal.
Which weighs more 1kilo of iron or 1 kilo of cotton?
1 kilogram is 1 kilogram no matter what the substance.
What weighs more ton of cotton or ton of nails?
Last answer: "Depends of how you weigh them. A ton of cotton could weigh more than a ton of nails." Not true! A ton (2000 lbs) is just a ton. 1 thing that weighs exactly 2000 pounds, cant weigh more or less than another thing that weighs exactly 2000 pounds. This is very simple! How did you get this wrong? Or maybe he/she was referring to the fact that there are at least 3 different types of tons. I am not sure. Well anyway, the point is that they were wrong, and the question now has a correct, acceptable answer. :P
Which do you think contains more matter and occupies more space 1kg of iron or 1kg of cotton?
1kg of iron contains more matter and occupies less space than 1kg of cotton. Iron is denser than cotton, so it has a higher mass-to-volume ratio.
What weighs more a pound of nails or a pound of pot?
they both weigh the same
What weighs more a kilogram of pennies or a kilogram of iron nails?
All kilograms have the same weight, as long as they're all on the same planet. (We don't know what that weight is until we know what planet they're on.)
Which has more mass one liter of feathers or one liter of iron nails?
one liter of iron
What is heavier 1 kilogram of cotton or 1 kilogram of nails?
Due to atmospheric pressure 1 Kg of Cotton is slightly heavier than 1 kg of Iron.According to me cotton will be more lighter as air is a fluid and Archimedes principal applies on it. As cotton occuies more volume it will feel more upthrust and more loss in weight. Therefore it if lighter.
Why does a small volume of iron weigh more than a large ball of cotton?
Because iron is much more dense.
Is the density of cotton more than density of iron?
No, cotton has a density of 1.54-1.56 g/cm³ while iron has a density of 7.874 g/cm³
What weighs more iron or feathers?
Iron weighs more than feathers. Iron is a dense, heavy metal, while feathers are light and fluffy. However, if comparing the same volume of iron and feathers, they would weigh the same due to the concept of density.
