What weighs more 1kg of feathers or 1kg of bricks?

Kilogram Weights

This is a trick question: A kilogram is a measurement of weight, so they weigh the same. You would need quite a few more feathers, though!

Assuming that, obviously, the bricks are on the moon, then the feathers weigh more, due to increased gravitational effects.

Hello?! 1 kg?! they are asking which one is heavy... They both have the same weight so niether is heavier than the other.

Answer

OK they might weigh the same but I would much prefer a kilo of feathers fall on my head than a kilo of bricks!

Answer

Though the weight is the same i prefer a kg of feathers because i can wear them in my cap!

Most people would unless they're attempting suicide.

It was put to me this way. Instead of bricks it was gold and instead of kilo it was pounds, and a guy argued that the gold would weigh more because of the troy ounce system. They are both the same. Like wich do you get wetter in? walking in the rain or running in the rain. You are still in the rain da

Answer

On the other hand, if you wanted to know which would land first when dropped from equal height, it would be the bricks. why? because of course the feathers would float away from each other and take ages to fall to the ground. the bricks would fall like, well, a ton of bricks

kilogram is a nmeasurement of weight not mass. this means that depending on the gravitational pull appplied to the kilogram, it can weigh different amounts. a kilo of feathers on earth placed on the moon would weigh much less : about 10 grams. in this case the bricks weigh more. also: both on earth, the bricks would weigh more. because of the air resistance on the feathers wholst weighing them the measurement would be innaccurate.

ANSWER

duh they weigh the same
