The surface area of Earth remains relatively constant because the processes that shape the planet, such as plate tectonics, erosion, and sedimentation, balance each other out over geological time. While new land can form from volcanic activity and land can be lost to erosion, these changes do not significantly alter the total surface area. Additionally, the Earth's surface is a closed system, meaning that material is recycled rather than created or destroyed. Thus, the overall surface area remains stable.
The Earth's surface area is about 196,940,400 square miles (510,072,000 km²), of which 29.2% or 57,506,000 square miles is land surface (148,940,000 km²)
Lets pretend that the Earth is a perfect sphere. Surface area of a sphere = 4(pi)(radius)^2. The radius of earth is 6378.1 km. Plug that into your equation and you'll get your answer.
It's about 25-30 percent land.
The radius of the earth is 6400 km.The total surface area is 4*pi*radius square
Is it the planet Mars.
North America covers 16.3% of the Earth's surface.
Mars only has about 28% the surface area of the Earth. What's interesting is that number matches the land area of Earth, so the total surface of Mars is roughly the same as the dry land surface of Earth.
Hmmm... The total surface area of the Earth would be 510,072,000 km², this is including both the land and ocean. However, the total surface area of land on Earth is 148,940,000 km². That is around 29.2 % land and 70.8% ocean. To put things into perspective, the total surface area of the Earth is equivilant to 97,457,777,777.77 football fields (I think...) Anyway, I hope that helps.
The United States covers about 7% of Earth's land area. Including all over Earth's surface area (land and water), the US covers about 2% of Earth's surface.
Asia takes up 8.6% of Earth's total land area.
A large tall rocky area of land that protrudes from the earth's surface is a mountain. Mountains are formed by the bending and buckling of the rock under the land.
