how big is the sun on a 1 to 10 billion scale? How big is the earth in the same scale? Covert answers to cm. Assume Sun’s radius

galben [10]

Answer:

sun is bigger than earth is 13.9 cm

Explanation:

given data

radius of sun = 700,000 km

radius of earth = 6500 km

to find out

how big is the sun

solution

we know here

scale 1 to 10 billion is

scale = $\frac{1}{10*10^9}$

so here

we know that scaled diameter = actual diameter × scale .................1

so for earth

scaled diameter of earth = 2 × 6500 × $\frac{1}{10*10^9}$

scaled diameter of earth = 1.3 × $10^{-6}$

and

scaled diameter of sun = 2 × 700,000 × $\frac{1}{10*10^9}$

scaled diameter of sun = 1.4 × $10^{-4}$

sun is bigger than earth is 1.4 × $10^{-4}$ - 1.3 × $10^{-6}$

sun is bigger than earth is 0.000139 = 13.9 cm

Explain how the regions of China are isolated by geographic features, making governance and the spread of ideas and goods diffic

nignag [31]

There are many geographical barriers that separate China from the rest of the world, including various seas, mountains, and deserts. There is the Gobi Desert (north), the Taklimakan Desert (west), the Himalaya Mountains (south), and the Pacific Ocean (east). China is also isolated by the three seas: the Yellow Sea, East China Sea, and the South China Sea. Also in the south, there is the Tibet, which is the highest plateau in the world. There is also the Great Wall of China, which has succeeded many times in keeping out invaders (built by Shi Huangdi).
