How many pennies would it take to reach to the moon?

alot


Can 200 billion pennies reach from the earth to the moon?

No. Stacked up, they would only reach about 200,000 kilometers. (128,000 mi) The average distance of the moon is 384,403 km. If the pennies were placed end to end, they would make it.


How many stacked CDs does it take to reach the moon?

>3,519,500,651,162 that's how many Actually about 1/10th of that. Let see by using an example... The day before 9/11/2001, Donald Rumsfeld announced that $2.3 Trillion in transactions cannot be accounted for. The Pentagon wing with the Accounting records was destroyed on 9/11. So we will never know where the money went. How can we get a feel for how much $2.3 Trillion is? The Moon is an average of 384,403 km from Earth. That is 384,403,000 meters (384 million meters) That is 384,403,000,000 millimeters (384 billion) If the thickness of a US Dollar is about 1 millimeter, that means you could stack 384 billion dollars to the Moon. $2.3 trillion or $2,3000,000,000,000 would stack dollar bills 2.3 trillion / $384 billion = 6 times to the Moon As many times as NASA landed on the moon. (Yes they did.)


How many pennies would it take to cover the diameter of the Sun?

Modern US cents are 3/4 of an inch wide, with an area of 0.442 square inches. The Sun is a sphere with a diameter of 865,000 miles, and a maximum cross-sectional area of about 587 billion square miles. To equal the area of the Sun's visible face, you would need 5.38 x 10^21 pennies (5.38 billion trillion pennies) - this could create a penny-thick disk the same size as the Sun. If you had to overlap the pennies rather than melt them down, it would take at least 6.85 x 10^21 pennies.

How tall is a stack of 534000000000 pennies?

A penny is .0625 inches thick, so if you had a stack of 534,000,000,000 (five hundred thirty-four billon) pennies, it would be 33,375,000,000 (thirty-three billion three hundred seventy-five million) inches high, which is 2,781,250,000 (two billion, seven hundred eighty-one million, two hundred fifty thousand) feet high. This would be 526,751.894 miles. In metric units, a penny is 1.55mm thick, so a stack of 534,000,000,000 pennies would be 827,700,000,000 (eight hundred twenty-seven billion seven hundred million) millimeters high. This would be 82,770,000,000 (eighty-two billion seven hundred seventy million) centimeters. That would be 827,700 km. A stack of pennies this size would go around the earth at the equator 21.1533778 times! Going by the average distance to the moon (384,400 km or 238,855 miles), a stack of pennies this high would go reach the moon and back with some pennies left over (the exact value is 2.205320776 times). 534,000,000,000 pennies=5,340,000,000 U.S. dollars (thats five billion, three hundred forty million). That would mean you are tied with or barely richer than Giorgio Armani at #144 on Forbes list of the world's billionaires. If you have 534,000,000,000 pennies don't stack them, turn them into dollars!

What is the height of one million pennies?

A US penny is 1.55mm thick. Thus a stack of 1,000,000 pennies would be 1,550,000mm, or 1.55 kilometers (0.963 miles) high. A Canadian penny is 1.45mm thick. Thus a stack of 1,000,000 pennies would be 1,450,000mm, or 1.55 kilometers (0.901 miles) high. A post-1992 British penny is 1.65mm thick. Thus a stack of 1,000,000 pennies would be 1,650,000mm, or 1.65 kilometers (1.025 miles) high.


If a penny is 1 mm thick how high would a stack of one mole of pennies measure in mm?

A mole of something contains 6.02214179×10^23 of them, so a stack of one mole of pennies would be: 6.02214179×10^23 x 1 mm = 6.02214179×10^23 mm high.
