TO answer this question, you need to know the density and the volume of the piece of steel. For example, "mild steel" weighs .284 pounds per cubic inch.
The volume of a 12 inch x 12 inch x 1 inch piece of steel is 12 * 12 * 1 = 144 cubic inches.
.284 pounds/inch^3 * 144 inch^3 = 40.896 pounds.
So each of these steel tiles will weigh about 41 pounds.
40lbs
Depends, of course, on the density of the steel.
The weight of 1 foot of steel rod would depend on the diameter of the rod.
Steel is typically 490 lb/cubic foot. There are 1,728 square inches in a cubic foot which means that each cubic inch weighs about .284 pounds (just a bit over a quarter of a pound per square inch).
It is not possible to answer the question sensibly. Square feet are a measure of area, whereas weight is a property associated with volume. 10 sq feet of oak would probably weigh less than a feather if it were 1 micron thick. On the other hand, it would weigh a lot if it were 2 foot thick.
The density of steel alloy varies depending on its constituents and ranges between 7,750 and 8,050 kg/cu mtr (4.48 and 4.65 oz/cu in).It will therefore weigh between 645.12 and 669.6 ounces.
A foot.
Depends, of course, on the density of the steel.
The weight of 1 foot of steel rod would depend on the diameter of the rod.
It would weigh about 14.3 pounds .
Because they each weigh 300 pounds, they weigh the same, thus neither is heavier than the other.
Approximately 80 pounds.
500 lbs. for type 304 SST.
Steel weighs .283 lbs./ cu. in. One of the most useful numbers is: one square foot of 1" steel weighs 40# (really 40.8#) So, quick math says a square 1/4" thick being on quarter the dimension, is 10 #,1/8" is 5#, etc. A 1" square bar 12' long is 40#, or 3.3# foot x 20'= 66# A 3" square tube with 1/4" wall one foot long is nothing but a one square foot piece folded up, it's 10# also.

Yes, and no. There are certain bullets that are designed with extreme piercing in mind. Such bullets are important to the military. Most bullets, however, are not strong enough to pierce steel. It also depends on the type of steel involved. A 20 foot thick piece of steel could assuredly not be pierced by ANY bullet that is produced today. But a baking sheet thickness of steel could be pierced by steel. About 2 inches of steel can stop a bullet for most bullets :) If you're considering using a piece of steel to wear to get shot in- Just say no to stupid ;)
It depends. If it is a foot thick, definitely. but if the steel is only a few inches or less than an inch, it isn't. steel isn't strong enough on it's own to be bulletproof.
The weight of steel diamond plate per square foot depends on its thickness. Steel diamond plate that is 3/16 inches thick weighs 8.70 pounds per square foot. 3/8" plate weighs 16.35 pounds per square foot.
Using density of steel @ 490.06 pounds per cubic foot (approx) 8 * 10 * (1/12) * 490.06 = 3267.07 pounds (approx)
