Re: ‘Based On Nonsense’

Saul Levy, a poster from the astronomy newsgroup got the answer wrong.

I have to repeat the question:


The Earth-size is 3,959 mi radius.

if I mutiply that number by 2,

2 x 3,959 mi radius = 7,918 mi "radius"


The question now is: Is 7,918 mi radius Earth-size? Yes or No??



Now for Saul Levy, here is the definition of radius:

ra·di·us
'rade?s/
noun
noun: radius; plural noun: radii; plural noun: radiuses

    1.
    a straight line from the center to the circumference of a circle or sphere.

 The distance from the center to the edge of a circle. It is half of the circle's diameter.



I have to repeat the question:


The Earth-size is 3,959 mi radius.

if I mutiply that number (the earth radius) by 2,

2 x 3,959 mi radius = 7,918 mi "radius"


The question now is: Is 7,918 mi radius Earth-size? Yes or No??


Or in other words, a planet with a radius of 7,918 mi, is it Earth-size? Yes or No??



Is this question too tough for yous?
