   Idea: Your head has travelled further than your feet

   According to this calculation (probably by a caveman American, as it is in feed (?)) Your head does about an extra 10 meters per year than your feet per year. Multiply this by say 70 years and you have saved about micron of sole. Handy!

   If you were to walk around the earth, your head would travel a significant distance farther than your feet.

  Not for me. As a normal-ish kid I spent hours each week on a playground swing. So my head is still likely catching up to my feet. Unless they launch my cadaver in a fancy spin, the feet have it.

  Yet according to this calculation its 18 feet (6 metres) so according to statistical significance, rounding and a standard error bar of say 5% – the jury is still out, heh. Still uses feet to measure distance travelled by feet. Good point, catch up America, look outside of your bubble now and again.

  SOLUTION: A six-foot tall person walks around the earth. how much farther does the person's head travel than the person's feet?

  You can put this solution on YOUR website! Remember the circumference of a circle is where d is the diameter of the circle So let d=diameter of the earth This means the circumference of the earth is: Now since the person is 6 feet tall, this means we’re going to add 6 to the diameter…

  I think you calculated this wrong. The earth spins every day, not once a year, so its probably 365 times more than the 10 metres you came up with. More like 3.6 km. Lol, dunno what that is in miles or our fancy American feet.
