I would have thought that the time it took to type the question, it would have been quicker to get a calculator out.
c=piD
So c=pi x 3,476 = 10,920 km. Close enough.
6784 what? Which moon? (Not all are round!) Are we talking the typical oblate spheroid or an idealized sphere?
From earth the moon subtends an angle of 0.5 degrees. The ancient Greeks determined that the moon was approximately 60 earth radii away. Using simple trigonometry, the diameter of the moon would therefore be (60/2) tan(0.5°) = 0.26 earth diameters, or about 2000 miles. [The actual diameter is 2160 miles]. That makes the circumference 2000(pi) = 6300 miles [actual equatorial distance is 6786 miles].
6790 mi = 35,851,200 in
The mean lunar diameter is 2.16*103 miles.
According to NASA, the surface area of the moon is approx 37,932,000 square kilometres. .
The circumference of a circle is calculated using the formula C = π × d, where d is the diameter. Therefore, the circumference of the moon would be approximately 10,919 km when rounded to the nearest thousand kilometers using π ≈ 3.14.
The diameter of the moon is about 3,474 kilometers (2,159 miles).
The equatorial diameter of the moon is approximately 3,474.8 kilometers.
From the center of the earth to the center of the moon, the approximate distance is 384,403 km. But it depends on the whether the moon is at its furthest point or its closest point, as it ellipses around the earth.
No, Earth's moon is smaller than Mercury. The diameter of Mercury is about 4,880 kilometers, while the diameter of the Moon is about 3,474 kilometers.
The moon measures about 2160 miles (3476 km) across. The distance is about one fourth the diameter of the Earth, and 400 times smaller than that of the sun.
The size of a small moon The first was 160 kilometers in diameter and had a circumference of 503 km. The second was 900 km in diameter and had a circumference of 2827 km.
The diameter of the Moon is approximately 3,474.8 kilometers.
It Is 238,857 miles to the moon! x
The Earth is larger than the Moon. The Earth's diameter is about 12,742 kilometers, while the Moon's diameter is about 3,474 kilometers.
The moon is about one fourth the size of the Earth. It has an equatorial circumference of 10,917 kilometers, or 6783.5 miles.
The Moon's diameter is approximately 4 times smaller than Earth's. If the diameter of the ball represents the Moon, then it should be approximately 15.5 cm (62 cm divided by 4).
