It is the weight of two dimes
* * * * *
Interesting but not true.
2 US dimes = 4.536 grams
1 US quarter = 5.67 grams
That is a discrepancy of 25% : not a minor difference!

Why is a quarter approximatly 2 mm thick?
It is, in fact, 1.75 mm thick, not 2 mm. So any reasons which tried to explain why it is 2 mm thick would be contradicted by reality!
Area of a quarter?
A US quarter is 24.26 mm in diameter, giving it an area on each face of 462.2441 square mm (A = pi * r^2). Is also 1.75 mm thick, meaning that the edge (assuming that it was smooth - that is, without giving effect to the increase area brought about by the 119 reeds on the reeded edge) would have an area of 133.3763 square mm (A = 2 * pi * r * h). Thus, the total surface area of a US quarter would be 1057.8645 square mm. A Canadian quarter is 23.81 mm in diameter, giving it an area on each face of 445.2548 square mm (A = pi * r^2). Is also 1.60 mm thick, meaning that the edge (assuming that it was smooth - that is, without giving effect to the increase area brought about by the reeds on the reeded edge) would have an area of 119.6821 square mm (A = 2 * pi * r * h). Thus, the total surface area of a Canadian quarter would be 1010.1916 square mm.
What is the circumference of a quarter?
The diameter of a quarter is 24.26 mm. Circumference is pi* diameter. 24.26 mm * 3.14159=76.21 mm
What is the area of quarter pi is 3.14 and the diameter is 4 mm?
Would be the area of a circle.Area = pi * radius squaredA = pi*r2radius = diameter/2Radius = 4 mm/2 = 2 mmArea of quarter = (3.14)(2 mm)2= 12.6 mm2========
Which is bigger 1.5 mm or 7 mm?
7 mm, because 1.5 is less than 2, while 7.0 is greater than 2. Don't let decimal points fool you!

If you folded a peice of paper 50 times and the thickness was .1 mm when you started how thick would it be?
It is physically impossible to fold a piece of paper in half more than 8 times. However, assuming you could do it (though it would be easier to cut the pile so far in half and put one half on top of the other), then: After 1 fold the stack has 2 sheets After 2 folds the stack has 4 sheets After 3 folds the stack has 8 sheets After n folds the stack has 2^n sheets After 50 folds the stack will be 2⁵⁰ sheets thick As each sheet is 0.1mm, the stack will be: 2⁵⁰ × 0.1 mm = 112589990684262.4 mm thick = 112589990.6842624 km thick ≈ 1.126 × 10¹¹ m thick
