Question

The mean radius of Earth is 6,371.0 kilometres and the mean radius of Earth’s Moon is 1,737.5 kilometres.

Answer 1

Answer: 29,113.2 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Circumference = 2 x π x radius

Replacing with the values given:

Earth's mean circumference = 2 π 6,371.0 = 40,030.2 km

Earth's moon mean circumference = 2 π 1,737,5= 10,917 km

Now, we have to subtract Earth's moon mean circumference to Earth's mean circumference:

40,030.2- 10,917 =29,113.2 km
