I think that 5lbs of fat weighs the same as 5lbs of muscle.
The muscle has less volume or takes up less space.
Does that sound right? |
Totally correct. A kilogram of fat = A kilogram of muscle. The density of muscle, where density is defined as rho = mass / volume, is greater than the density of fat. The less the volume, the higher the density.
So what happens if the volume approaches zero from the positive side? (lim, V ->0
+) Singularity! Well, that's another subject...
