You have a bag of cotton and an iron 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?

Iron bar is heavier than the cotton bag because for the mass the iron bar will have lesser surface area and apply more force, so iron bar is heavier than cotton bag.
