The unit 'gsm' stands for 'grams per square meter', which means that a 130 gsm paper is heavier than an 80 gsm paper. Whether the 130 gsm is thicker depends on the type of paper. However, 130 gsm of the same paper stock would obviously be thicker.

How thick is 130 gsm of A4 paper?

A typical A4 paper is approximately 0.1 mm (100 microns) thick. The weight of the paper does not directly correlate with its thickness as it depends on factors like density and composition. A 130 gsm A4 paper would be slightly thicker than a standard 80 gsm A4 paper, but the exact thickness would vary depending on the specific properties of the paper.


How much does an 80gsm A4 piece of paper weigh?

A4 paper is 210X297 mm so each sheet is 0.06237 m2 multiply that by 80 grams m2 it comes to 4.9896 grams a sheet. Say 5 grams. 2 x reams (1000 sheets) weighs about 4.5kg so each sheet is 4.5g


How much does paper weigh in kilograms?

The weight of paper can vary depending on its thickness and size, but a standard sheet of A4 paper (80gsm) typically weighs around 5 grams. This means that one kilogram would be equivalent to 200 sheets of A4 paper.

How much does 500 sheets of 80gsm paper weigh?

You did not mention paper size, so I am assuming A4 which is 29.7cm * 21cm Area of 1 sheet = 29.7cm * 21cm = 623.7 cm^2 = 0.06237 m^2 Area of 500 sheets = 0.06237 * 500 = 31.185 m^2 80gsm means 1 sq metre (m^2) of the paper weighs 80g Since the total area of 500 sheets is 31.185 m^2, so 500 sheets weigh = 31.185 * 80g = 2494.8g = 2.4948kg


How many sheets of paper equal a ton?

One tonne of paper is equal to 200, 000 sheets of A4 paper. (A number of sites report that it is equal to 40,000 sheets, but simple maths shows they are incorrect: Given...1 A4 page of 80gsm (gsm: Grams per Square Metre) 1m2 = 16 x A4 sheets So... 1 A4 sheets = 80g/16 = 5grams 1 tonne = 1,000,000grams Hence... 1 tonne = 1,000,000/5 A4 sheets = 200,000 A4 sheets)


What happens if you stick A4 size sheet on a pinhole camera instead of butter paper or tissue paper?

It depends what density of A4 paper you were using. At above 60 gsm you would see not very much. However at 60 gsm A4 paper is getting thin enough (like tissue paper) to be slightly transparent and so allow an image possibly to be seen. Tissue paper is used as it is thin enough to be transparent enough to see the projected image. If you were to make your pin hole camera a camera obscura - a box big enough for you to physically get inside - you could use a piece of ordinary 80gsm A4 paper onto which to project the image from the pin hole and view it from the same side as the pin hole: in this case the light does not need to penetrate the paper "screen" to be viewed and so thicker, non-transparent paper can be used. The camera obscura was used in this way with the occupant tracing the image projected onto their paper to create a good drawing of the scene they wanted to draw.
