You have a bag of cotton and anir on bar, each indicating a mass of 100 kg when measured on a weighing machine. In reality, one is heavier than other. Can you say which one is heavier and why?

The bag of cotton is heavier since volume of cotton bag is greater than iron bar, so the up thrust is larger in case of cotton hence real mass of cotton bag is more and it is heavier.
