\n" ); document.write( "\"C+=+wr%5E2+=+200%2A%283963%29%5E2+\"= 3,141,073,800 Yes! or 3,141,073,800/(3963)^2 ~ 200
\n" ); document.write( " w when r = 1,388 \"w+=+C%2Fr%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( " \"3141073800%2F%281388%29%5E2=+3141073800%2F1926544\" = 1630.4189 Note: w will be more as r is less
\n" ); document.write( " Estimating Answer: ~ 3x10^9/2x10^6 = 1.5x10^3 = 1500
\n" ); document.write( "Re: TY Note: 1500 was just an approxiamation, which is something recommended
\n" ); document.write( "when dealing with large numbers...to get a 'ballpark' fiqure to compare with.
\n" ); document.write( "1630.4189 is the Actual weight. Round as directed. rounded to the nearest whole number would be 1630.
\n" ); document.write( "Yes, the idea is 'weightlessness' is something reserved for being a very... long ways above the earth's surface. \n" ); document.write( "
