How much does a glass marble weigh?
Depends on the density of the glass and the size of the marble! Does the marble have air pockets? I would assume 100% glass…
But multiply the volume of the marble times the density.
Volume of sphere=4/3 * pi* r^3
Desity of glass= ?
Mass = density * volume… if you are working in english units then you’ll have your answer in lbs probably.
In metric units, you will need to multiply mass times the gravitational constant to (9.81 m/s^2) to get weight in Newtons.
