I have taken an average weight per cubic metre for a given substance and rounded it to the nearest 25 kilograms.
Is lead or marble heavier.
Well one side would be heavier and we would be able to narrow it down to 2 marbles but we still don t know which of those 2 marbles is heavier.
Weights of various metals in pounds per cubic foot aluminum 168 48 antimony 419 99 beryllium 113 70 bismuth 611 00 brass approx 535 68 bronze alum.
Density is the ratio of mass to volume in other words how heavy something is for its size.
Granite vs limestone characteristics.
The table below lists out the density values of common metals and alloys including iron carbon steel steel wire alloy steel bearing steel stainless steel copper brass bronze aluminum magnesium nickel zinc lead etc.
Terrazzo is a composite material poured in place or precast which is used for floor and wall treatments.
This would require one more weighing for a total of 3 when the question specifically asks us to find the heaviest marble in just 2 weighings.
The marble is more dense.
Variation within a class of substance can be large.
It consists of chips of marble quartz granite glass or other suitable material poured with a cementitious binder for chemical binding polymeric for physical binding or a combination of both.
The exception is the metals table since there is seldom much variation in weight between different batches of the same metal i have given the weight per cubic.
In most cases denser objects are also heavier.
Characteristics of rocks include texture appearance color fracture streak hardness etc.
Iron is more dense than pumice a volcanic rock that actually floats on water.
The weights given in these tables are necessarily approximate.
Though some rocks look identical they have certain characteristics which distinguish them from others.
I remember in physics that everything falls the same.
Aluminium for example is less dense lighter than granite.
Metal strips often divide sections or changes in color or material in a pattern.
Hope it is of help to you.
There are lots of different metals and lots of different stones.
This is trick question.
The densities of rocks and minerals are normally expressed as specific gravity which is the density of the rock relative to the density of water.
If you drop a heavy and light object together the heavy one will get to the ground first.
Density is an intensive property which means that it doesn t depend on the.
