Perhaps you have imagined digging a tunnel through the earth that comes out the other side. How many kilometers would you have to dig?

If you dig a hole from one side of the earth to the other side and you throw a titanium ball in the hole does it fall to the other side or will it balance in the middle gravity issue?

In reality, you couldn't dig a hole through the Earth; the core of the Earth is molten iron, and quite fluid. But if you COULD..... If you have a perfectly smooth tunnel clear through the Earth, then if you dropped a titanium (or any other material) in, it would fall, accelerating all the way, to the center. It would then rise, slowing down, until it ALMOST reached the surface on the other side. If the tunnel were in a vacuum, it would, almost exactly, reach the other end before falling back in. The one-way trip would take 82 minutes. Because of the rotation of the Earth, the ball would be banging or rolling along the wall of the tunnel as the ball fell and the Earth rotated around it.

Perhaps you have imagined digging a tunnel through the earth that comes out the other side. How many kilometers would you have to dig?

== == == == == == The diameter of the earth at the equator is 7,926.41 miles (12,756.32 kilometers). But, if you measure the earth through the north and south poles the diameter is a bit shorter - 7,901 miles (12,715.43 km). Thus the earth is a tad wider (25 miles / 41 km) than it is tall, giving it a slight bulge at the equator. This shape is known as an ellipsoid or more properly, geoid (earth-like). So it just depends on which way you're digging!

As you are driving along you come to a road tunnel you cannot see daylight at the other end why?

Tunnels are typically constructed to create a direct passage through an obstacle such as a mountain or body of water. Therefore, due to the tunnel's design and curvature, it may not be possible to see daylight at the other end when you enter it. This is a normal feature of tunnels and is designed for safe passage through the obstacle.

What would happen if you drilled a hole through the earth?

If you were to drill a hole through the Earth, you would create a tunnel that goes from one side of the planet to the other. Gravity would pull you towards the center of the Earth, and you would experience weightlessness at the midpoint. The journey would be extremely hot and the pressure would increase as you got closer to the center. It is not physically possible to drill a hole through the Earth due to the extreme conditions and technological limitations.


How fast does the euro tunnel go?

Eurotunnel is the company which owns and operates the channel tunnel between England and France. As it is a company it does not move! Eurotunnel operate shuttles carrying cars and lorries on trains through the tunnel. These run about 160 Kph. Other companies also run trains through the tunnel. The only passenger trains currently running through the tunnel are owned by Eurostar. These run about 200 Kph in the tunnel, but much faster outside it (300 Kph). Freight trains run much slow.


How many hours does it take to drive through the channel tunnel?

== == you can't drive through the channel tunnel. It's a railway tunnel. When you arrive at the terminal (Folkestone or Calais) you check in - using a machine which scans your ticket without your having to leave your car - go through immigration and customs, and drive onto a train. The train takes bout half an hour to go through the tunnel, and at the other end you simply drive off and out into the wide blue yonder.
