Well, it depends on the sheet of paper. Considering that the circumference of the Earth is approximately 24,000 miles at the equator and a sheet of letter-sized paper in the USA is 8 1/2 by 11 inches, then if the Earth is represented in landscape mode and fits the page the scale is 11" to 24,000 miles or 24,000 miles X 5,280 feet/mile X 12 inches/foot X 12 inches/11 inches = 1,658,880,000. So the scale is very loosely about one and half billion to one.

Drawing a map of the whole world to fit on a single sheet of paper would require a very small scale. This would likely be around 1:100,000,000 or smaller, where 1 unit on the map represents 100,000,000 units in reality. This scale allows all continents to be visible on a single sheet of paper.

What is the difference between a Drawing and a Sheet?

A sheet is just a simple piece of paper you can draw on while a drawing is a picture that someone has drawn and is on paper.


Myra draws and cuts out 8 planets for a class project she pastes each planet on a separate sheet of paper how many sheets of paper did Myra use?

From the data given in the question the only certainty is that at least 8 sheets of paper have been used - the 8 sheets onto which the cut-outs have been pasted. There is no statement in the question as to on what the planets were drawn before they were cut out. For example the planets could have all been drawn on a single piece of cardboard before being cut out and then pasted to a sheet of paper: each planet having a separate sheet of paper so that they could be attached to the wall in order from their sun with information regarding distance from their sun, the length of their day (in earth hours), the length of their year (in earth days/years), etc. Or perhaps they were drawn on a single sheet of paper, making the total 9 sheets; Or perhaps they were drawn on more sheets of paper - two or three smaller planets on a single sheet - adding two or more sheets of paper; Or perhaps a single sheet of paper is used per planet for the drawing, adding an extra 8 sheets. Therefore Myra used between 8 and 16 inclusive sheers of paper.


How do you check prediction that a sheet of paper has a mass less that 1 kilogram?

To check if a sheet of paper has a mass less than 1 kilogram, you can use a scale. Place the sheet of paper on the scale and ensure it registers a mass less than 1 kilogram. If the scale reads a mass of less than 1kg, then the prediction is accurate.

How do you weigh a single sheet of A4 paper?

It is easier to weigh a number of sheets, say 16, 160, 1600, etc and then divide by the number of sheets as opposed to weighing a single sheet. The more sheets that are weighed together, the greater the accuracy the weight of one sheet can be calculated An easier method to find the weight of a sheet of A4 paper is to find out the density of the paper (in grams per square metre, or gsm) and divide this by 16 (as 16 sheets of A4 exactly make 1 sq m). This is very easy as the manufacturers of paper usually specify the density of the paper. Normal weight is 70 gsm (giving 4 3/8 = 4.375 g per sheet), though lighter 60 gsm (3 3/4 = 3.75 g per sheet) and heavier 90 gsm (giving 5 5/8 = 5.625 g per sheet) are available.


What is the difference between one sheet and one page?

In general, "sheet" refers to a single piece of paper, while "page" refers to one side of a sheet of paper. For example, a book may have multiple pages printed on both sides of a sheet, thus two pages per sheet.


What statement is correct - sheet of paper or piece of paper?

Both "sheet of paper" and "piece of paper" can be correct, but they are used in different contexts. "Sheet of paper" refers to a single flat piece of paper typically used for writing or drawing, whereas "piece of paper" can refer to a smaller portion or fragment of a larger sheet.
