Did velocity of sound is greater in water than in air?

Yes, the velocity of sound is greater in water than in air because water is denser than air, allowing sound waves to travel more quickly through it.


Which has greater mass 1.0 kilogram of feathers or 1.0 kilogram of lead?

Density, the atoms in a a kg of lead will be a closely packed solid, a kg of feathers will be a lot more spread out and surrounded by air.. That is assuming both your lead and feathers are under standard conditions..


Why are forcemeter readings are greater in air than in water?

Force meter readings are greater in air than in water because the density of water is higher than that of air. This means that in water, more force is required to displace the water compared to displacing air, resulting in lower force meter readings.


Which encounters the greater force of air resistance a falling elephant or a falling feather?

A falling elephant encounters a greater force of air resistance than a falling feather does. The force of air resistance can't be greater than the weight of the falling object. When the force of air resistance is equal to the weight of the falling object, the object stops accelerating, its falling speed becomes constant, and the force of air resistance doesn't get any bigger. So the force of air resistance against a falling feather can't be greater than the weight of the feather. But the force of air resistance against a falling elephant can be, and undoubtedly is, greater than the weight of a feather.


Which fluid produces the greater buoyancy force - air or water?

Buoyant force is dependent on the density of the fluid. Since water is denser than air (by a lot), an object immersed in water will experience a much greater buoyant force than one surrounded entirely by air.

How many cc are in a kilogram?

That depends what substance you have a kilogram of.A kilogram of air fills many many cc.A kilogram of water fills only 1,000 cc (1 liter).A kilogram if ice fills a few more cc than a kilogram of water does.A kilogram of lead, gold, or rock fills only a small number of cc.

Is lead more dense than air?

Lead is more dense than air.


Why does a kilogram of sand takes up much less space than a kilogram?

A kilogram of sand takes up less space than a kilogram of air, because sand is more dense than air. A kilogram of sand takes up more space than a kilogram of gold, because sand is less dense than gold.


Is the density of air is greater or less than 1?

greater


When an object or liquid's density is greater than one it wiLL BE WHAT?

The answer will depend on the units used. A density of 1 gram per litre is pretty light (less than the density of air at STP) whereas a density of 1 kilogram per ml is seriously dense.


How much volume equals one kilogram?

That depends on the substance that the kilogram is made of. A kilogram of air has a large volume. A kilogram of water has a medium volume. A kilogram of lead or stones has a small volume.


Did velocity of sound is greater in water than in air?

Yes, the velocity of sound is greater in water than in air because water is denser than air, allowing sound waves to travel more quickly through it.


Why does cold air have a greater volume than hot air?

It does not so there can be no answer to your question.


What weighs more lead or air?

lead which is element of non metal is heavier than air


What has more volume hot or cold water?

I hate questions like this one. Do you know why? Because I fear that the TEACHERS asking the question of their students are either IGNORANT of the subject matter they are supposed to be teaching or are asking a TRICK question of their students, which is almost always intellectually dishonest. Hopefully, it's just a poorly worded question by the poster of the question. Okay, I'll shut up and answer the question. A quantity of cold air can occupy a greater volume of hot air -- if there is more cold air than hot air!!!! If you've got two liters of cold air, that's a greater volume than one liter of hot air!!!!!! But what if you've got 0.1 kilogram of hot air and 0.1 kilogram of cold air? You've got the same amount of matter, right? They have the same mass: 0.1 kg. Will the hot and cold air occupy the same volume? NO!!! The hot air is less dense, which means it occupies MORE volume per unit mass than the cold air. So, if you have equal masses of hot and cold air, the hot air will have greater volume.


Is air pressure greater at the top of a mountain than at lower elevations?

No, it is greater at the lower elevations.
