A United States of America penny has a radius of 9.525mm, and a thickness of 1.55mm.

The volume of a penny is given by pi * 9.5252 * 1.55 = 441.8 mm3

Assuming we melted the pennies down so that no space was wasted, the volume of the box needed to hold them all would be

441.8 * 7 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 = 3.093 x 1024 mm 3

Or, to put it another way, if the box was a cube, each side of the box would have to be about 90 miles long.

Why do people add pennies to big ben?

by adding pennies , it changes the time taken for the oscillations of a pendulum ( for it to swing back and forth ) . This can be adjusted by adding more pennies to the top, which makes the length of the pendulum shorter and thus swinging faster. However , if you want the pendulum to go at a slower rate , then you would add pennies to the bottom.
