Neither of those items weighs more. We know that, because you have told us the
weight of each item, and we have completed a comparative calculation. One of them
weighs one pound and the other weighs one pound likewise as well. One pound is
equal to one pound. So the weight of one is equal to the weight of the other, and
neither 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 of
symmetrical reasoning, we are also fully and mathematically entitled to state that
neither of them weighs less than the other one either, as well, also, too.

That depends how many feathers you have. If you have more than a pound of
feathers, then they weigh more tha a pound of lead. But if you lose some of your
feathers and have less than a pound remaining, then they weigh less than a pound
of lead.
This entire discussion assumes that your feathers and your lead are on the same planet.

∙ 13y agothey both weigh the same which would be one pound.

∙ 8y agoA pound of anything, be it feathers, lead or marshmallows, just weighs a pound. They will obviously be of different volume due to different density.
They both weigh the same, one pound.
A pound of lead weighs the same as a pound of feathers. The weight is the same, but the volume of feathers will be much greater than that of 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.

All weighs a pound. So all will weigh the same
No, a pound of feathers and a pound of iron weigh the same, as they both weigh one pound. The difference between the two is their density and composition - feathers are less dense and made of organic material, while iron is a denser metal.
1 pound = 1 pound
A pound of lead weighs the same as a pound of feathers. The weight is the same, but the volume of feathers will be much greater than that of lead.
Since each substance weighs a pound, they weigh the same amount.
One, the correct term is "Which weighs more: a pound of lead or a pound of feathers?" Two, the answer is that they weigh exactly the same, because they both weigh a pound.
1 lb of sugar weighs exactly the same as 1lb of feathers. a pound is a pound is a pound.
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.
they are equal dummy
Each weighs a pound so neither weights more than the other..
They weigh the same there both a pound.
Both weigh the same - a pound!
a pound is a pound is a pound!!!a pound of anything always weighs a pound doesn't matter if it is feathers or bricks!!!
A pound of feathers because feathers are less dense than lead and therefore take up more volume for the same mass.
