Finally someone who understands my point, exactly, iron is heavier on average than 55 pillow cases worth of feathersLol @ the feathers and iron
I googled the weight of a feather in ounces, took whatever google spit out and converted it to 0.000018 lbs - that's the weight in pounds of one feather. Sadly I don't have a scale that could really do this!
That means it would take roughly 55,556 feathers to make 1 lb. That's quite a lot of feathers!
A pound of iron would be very small. You have probably used plates in the gym before and seen the 2.5 lb plates. Well... You can guess the volume of 1 pound from that. We are talking about something the size of your fist, or smaller.
The volume of a bag of ~55,000 feathers would be pretty large since the average king-sized pillow only contains roughly 1,000 feathers. That means 1 pound of feathers would be the equivalent of 55 king-sized feather pillows. Wow!
Same weight, different densities, very different volumes. The universe is fascinating. (I wouldn't want to be hit in the face with either, to be honest)
