How does the diameter of the disk of the Milky Way Galaxy compare to its thickness?

The Milky Way galaxy is 100,000 light years across and 1,000 light years thick. But the really fun part is that the Milky Way is all around us. We are right inside the Milky Way; it is our home galaxy. The Milky Way is not far away from you. You are a part of it.

What is the thickness of a pipe that has an outer diameter of 2.5 inches and diameter of 2.1 inches?

Consider going across the width of the pipe: Outer diameter = Thickness + Inner diameter + Thickness so 2*Thickness = Outer diameter - Inner diameter = 2.5 - 2.1 = 0.4 inches and therefore, Thickness = 0.2 inches.


How big is the Milky Way?

The stellar disk of the Milky Way galaxy is approximately 100,000 light years in diameter and about 10,000 light years in thickness.


What is the diameter of Andromeda galaxy?

According to a recent research, the spiral disk of stars in Andromeda is three times larger in diameter than previously estimated. This constitutes evidence that there is a vast, extended stellar disk that makes the galaxy more than 220,000 light-years (67,000 pc) in diameter. Previously, estimates of Andromeda's size ranged from 70,000 to 120,000 light-years (21,000 to 37,000 PC) across.

What is the radius of a quarter if the diameter is 23.98mm and the thickness is 1.60mm?

radius = diameter / 2 The thickness is irrelevant.


How do you calculate OD if ID and Thickness given?

To calculate the outer diameter (OD) of a cylindrical object when you have the inner diameter (ID) and the thickness of the material, you can use the formula: OD = ID + 2 × Thickness. This accounts for the thickness on both sides of the cylinder. Simply add twice the thickness to the inner diameter to get the outer diameter.


How do you find the thickness of cylinder?

External diameter minus internal diameter will get you the difference and then you have to divide by two to get the wall thickness. (as the difference in diameter accounts for both sides of the cylinder)


How do you find inside diameter of pipe knowing the wall thickness and outside diameter of pipe?

take the outside diameter and subtract the thickness twice.
