Which weighs more 1 pound of gold or 1 pound of fethers?
Both 1 pound of gold and 1 pound of feathers weigh the same, as they both weigh 1 pound. The difference lies in the volume, where the feathers would take up more space due to their lighter density compared to gold.
Which weighs more a pound of feathers or a pound of lead?
Neither of those items weighs more. We know that, because you have told us theweight of each item, and we have completed a comparative calculation. One of themweighs one pound and the other weighs one pound likewise as well. One pound isequal to one pound. So the weight of one is equal to the weight of the other, andneither of them weighs more than the other, according to the rigorous axiom that"If equals are equal to equals, then they are equal to each other". By the virtue ofsymmetrical reasoning, we are also fully and mathematically entitled to state thatneither of them weighs less than the other one either, as well, also, too.
Which is heavier a pound of lead or a pound of feathers?
Neither of those items weighs more. We know that, because you have told us the weightof each item, and we have completed a comparative calculation. One of them weighsone pound and the other weighs one pound. One pound is equal to one pound. So theweight of one is equal to the weight of the other, and neither of them weighs more thanthe other. Reasoning symmetrically, we are also mathematically entitled to state thatneither of them weighs less than the other one either, as well, also, too.
What weighs more 1 pound of silver or 1 pound of gold?
A pound of gold weighs the same as a pound of silver, because they are both one pound. But a block of gold would weigh more than the same-sized block of silver (gold is more dense than silver, so a smaller volume weighs the same).
Which one has more volume a pound of feathers or lead?
The feathers "take up more room" than the lead. It would be hard to compress the feathers to make them as dense as lead. The feathers have more volume.
