If the earth was the size of the ball in a ball point pen what would be about the size as the sun?
a basketball (or pretty close)
What is the moon and size in relation to earth and actual size?
The moon is 1/4 the diameter of the Earth
What is the size difference of the earth and the moon?
In rough rounded figures . . . -- The moon's diameter is 27.3% the size of the Earth's diameter. -- That makes the moon's surface area 7.5% the size of Earth's surface area. -- And it makes the moon's volume 2% the size of the Earth's volume. -- The moon's mass is 1.23% the size of the Earth's mass. (When we notice that the moon has 2% of Earth's volume but only 1.23% its mass, we realize immediately that the moon's average density is only 60% of the Earth's average density.)
Which is larger the Moon or Earth?
The Earth is larger than the Moon. The Moon's smaller mass means that the gravity on the Moon is only about 1/6 of the gravity at the Earth's surface.The Earth is 12,742-12,756 km in diameterThe Moon is 3,474.8 -3,476 km in diameterIf the Earth were the size of a basketball, the Moon would be the size of a tennis ball in comparison. However, of all the moons in the solar system, our moon is largest in proportion to the planet it orbits. All other moons, even the ones larger than our moon, are much smaller when compared in proportion to the planets they orbit.

the size of a basketball
How big would a moon be compared to the Earth on the model?
The moon model would be about 1/4th the size of the modeled earth.
How are the size and mass of the moon different from that of Earth?
The moon is smaller than the Earth so that would mean the size is smaller and the mass is also smaller because the mass depends on the size of the object so the moon would have less mass than Earth.
Is earth about the size of a basketball?
Only if you are in a spaceship very far away and you have a basketball in your hand and it is April 1st. No, the Earth is NOT the size of a basketball. If it were, then there is no way with the technology we have now that we could create a basketball. Also, there is no way that we would be able to have so many basketballs on Earth as we do.
How does the Moon's size compares to earths size?
The volume of the Moon is 2% compared to the Earth. You would need 81 objects with the mass of the Moon to match the mass of the Earth.
If the earth were represented as a basketball 10 in and the moon as a baseball 3 in then to order of magnitude what size would best represent the diameter of the sun?
a ball about 80 feet in diameter
What is Relative size of sun and earth?

How would you describe the visual appearance of planet Earth from the moon?
Right from moon? It appears as if a moon but big in size.
Is there an earth like planet the size of earth's moon?
No planets like Earth of any size have been discovered. For a planet the size of the Moon to have Earth like characteristics, it would have to have a much larger iron core in order to hold on to an atmosphere.
