So if they were to take out 5lbs. of my fat would it weigh the same as a 5 lb bu!


Question: or is it diffrent type of weight?


Answers: or is it diffrent type of weight?

5 pounds of fat would have more volume (take up more space) than five pounds of something denser.

Fat floats. Iron sinks. It's a lot denser.

But they both WEIGH the same!

Which is heavier , five pounds of bricks or five pounds of feathers? The same.

5 lbs of fat weighs is the same as a 5lb. dum bell...the weight is the same, the volume however is different...

5 pounds is 5 pounds! It's like the trick question - Which weighs more, a ton of lead or a ton of feathers? the answer is - A ton is a ton, no matter what!!!

That's like asking if 100 pounds of feathers are the same as 100 pounds of iron.
