this my penny project.
- 00:02 - 00:03
What are the steps to getting the height of one
- 00:04 - 00:04
million pennies?
- 00:05 - 00:07
The way to get the height of one million pennies
- 00:07 - 00:09
is to figure out the height of a single penny
- 00:09 - 00:10
and multiply that by a million.
- 00:12 - 00:13
So the question you would need to do is so
- 00:14 - 00:15
first you need to find the measurement of 10 pennies.
- 00:17 - 00:19
The hide a gun for 10 pennies was 15.2 millimeters,
- 00:21 - 00:23
and I need to divide that by 10 in order
- 00:23 - 00:24
to figure out the height of one penny.
- 00:25 - 00:27
So I figured out that that that the height of
- 00:27 - 00:30
one penny equals to 1.52 millimeters.
- 00:31 - 00:34
So now I would need to multiply that by a
- 00:34 - 00:36
million to figure out the height of one million pennies.
- 00:37 - 00:39
After calculating, I figured out that the height of one
- 00:39 - 00:44
million pennies are 1,520,000 millimeters tall.
- 00:44 - 00:48
So those were the questions I made over there, and
- 00:49 - 00:50
now the Empire State Building problems.
- 00:51 - 00:52
So is the Empire State Building.
- 00:52 - 00:54
Taller than one million penny sacks.
- 00:55 - 00:59
The height of one million penny stacked are 1,520,000 millimeters,
- 00:59 - 01:02
according to my last calculations, the height of the Empire
- 01:03 - 01:06
State Building is three 181 m tall.
- 01:06 - 01:08
The next step we need to do is figure out
- 01:08 - 01:12
the height of one million, 520,000 millimeters and 2 m
- 01:14 - 01:15
because we need to have the same units.
- 01:16 - 01:19
So converting millimeters to meters divided that by 1000.
- 01:20 - 01:24
So when million pennies are as tall as 1520 m,
- 01:24 - 01:27
making one million pennies taller than the Empire State Building
- 01:29 - 01:33
and now the one with Mount Everest, so are one
- 01:33 - 01:35
million pennies taller than Mount Everest.
- 01:36 - 01:38
As we know from the previous calculations, one million pennies
- 01:38 - 01:43
air average average out Thio 1520 m, making them wait
- 01:43 - 01:47
shorter than Mount Everest since it's 8850 m.
- 01:48 - 01:51
Tom, thank you for listening to my presentation
