If the diameter of the earth is 8,000 miles then it requires 132.633,600 feet of rope to encircle the earth.

The point is that wouldn't matter if the diameter of the earth was 2 feet or 100,00 miles. The numerical answer to your problem would be the same. You understand?

Of course I understand!

That is why I posed the problem.

Would you like another?
