Why do pennies before 1982 have a higher density than 1982?

Pennies before 1982 were made of 95% copper, which has a higher density compared to the 97.5% zinc composition used in pennies starting in 1982. This change was made due to the increasing cost of copper.


In what ways is the penny analogy for isotopes misleading?

The penny analogy for isotopes can be misleading because unlike pennies, isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons which can result in different properties. Pennies are all identical regardless of year, whereas isotopes have variations in their physical behavior due to differing numbers of neutrons. Additionally, the chemical behavior of isotopes might differ slightly due to their mass differences, unlike identical pennies.


Are us pennies made of copper?

U.S. one cent coins were 95% copper until 1982. 1982 was the transition year from copper to zinc, so there are copper coins dated 1982 and zinc coins dated 1982. From 1983 to 2012 the coins are 99.2% zinc & .008% copper with a copper plating.


How many mili seconds in a year?

There are approximately 31,536,000 milliseconds in a year. This is calculated by multiplying the number of milliseconds in a second (1000) by the number of seconds in a year (31,536,000 seconds).


How many pennies are made per second?

The number of cents made each year varies widely depending on demand, so even an average figure for coins per second won't be very representative. For example in 1994 almost 13 billion cents were made which works out to about 412 coins per second over an entire year. In 2009 only about 1/6 as many cents (2.3 billion) were struck so that's 70 coins per second. Of course production doesn't necessarily go on 24/7 so the actual production speed varies a lot, too. An individual coin press can make 600 to 800 coins per minute so that's 10 to 13 coins per second per machine.

How much is 6 billion pennies in us dollars?

6,000,000,000 pennies equals $60,000,000 (sixty million dollars). 6 billion is about half of the total number of pennies made each year - 13,000,000,000 - so you are unlikely to see that many at once.
