Tie a rope around the Earth's equator. Now untie it, and

I think you stated the problem backwards, because the actual answer is 1/2pi meters which is pretty close to 0 compared to 1 meter. My mind was not blown.

>>8335536
D=C/pi
D2-D1 = C2/pi - C1/pi = (C2-C1)/pi = (C1+1+C2)/pi) = 1/pi = ~0.24

so about 12cm?
Not sure what the point of this was, unless it's your homework.

less than 1mm

It will still be on the ground because the mass of the rope falling into depressions as it goes over land will pull it taught.

Ce= re*2pi; (Ce + 1)/2pi = r1; (re*2pi + 1)/2pi = r1; re - (re*2pi + 1)/2pi = d; re - re + 1/2pi =d; d =1/(2pi) = 0.16 m

>1/pi = ~0.24

Funny thing tho, it doesn't matter
if you do the wrap around a tennis ball
or the world, the numbers are the same:
a 15.92 cm increase of radius will result in the
rope lengthening by 1 m.

I did this in primary school when we learned bout circles for the first time.

A more interesting one I calculated was
>Tie a rope around the Earth's equator. Now untie it, and add one meter of rope. Tie again. pull the rope to a peak as in the pic, how high is the peak?

about one dick

>>8335633
Thats very cool

>>8335633
obviously
>2pi(r+dr) = 2pir + 2pidr
WOW SO AMAZING!

>>8335727
The farthest I can get is:
1=2r*acos(r/(r+h))+2sqrt(2r^2+rh+h^2)
How do you solve an equation like that?

Alright I actually messed up that equation a bit. There should be no r^2 term inside the radical. And I figured that the angle would be small enough to use paraxial approximation, so the acos term is also 0. I get a height of approximately 39 mm, amazing.

c=2r π
Δc=1
Δr=1/(2π)=0.1592

The answer is -1/12

Assuming the earth is a perfect sphere (it isn't)
the answer would be:
(22/7d + 22/7) - 22/7d
measure diameter in meters and provide answer in meters, this is the distance between the proportionately stretched out rope and the fictional perfect circumference of the earths entirely smooth equator.
