A dime has a diameter of 17.9 mm and a thickness of 1.35 mm. The land area of the State of Indiana is 35,866.90 mi'. (2 pts total) a) Assuming no space between the dimes, calculate how many dimes would be needed to form a single layer that would cover the entire state of Indiana. (You will need to calculate the area of a single dime first, in square miles, knowing that the area of a circle is xr².) c) d) If 1 mole of dimes were stacked flat across the entire surface of the state of Indiana, how many dimes would each stack contain? Calculate the height of the stack of dimes, in miles, if one mole of dimes were stacked across the entire surface of the State of Indiana. (i.e. How many layers of dimes would you have, covering the State of Indiana?) Choose a United States city or national landmark that is fairly far from Indianapolis (in another state or another region of the U.S.). Find out how far away this place is. the height of the stack of dimes that you calculated in "c" above? Is it closer or farther than, A dime has a diameter of 17.9 mm and a thickness of 1.35 mm.
