    Question: Neopia is a strange little planet. Its gravitational acceleration at its surface is exactly 10.0 metres per second per second, and its diameter is exactly 2100 kilometres.

    Also, a completely unrelated fact, Skeiths are able to consume about 0.4 kg of pretty much anything they want to eat, every minute, nonstop.

    Assuming that the density of the planet is uniform, and that orbiting bodies don't significantly affect the planet's gravity, how many years will it take one million Skeiths to consume one cubic kilometre of Neopia? Please round up to the nearest year.

    Answer: 162.064 = 162 years*

    *I did not take into account leap years...

    Note: I haven't taken physics yet in school so my answer was derived from information I learned here ...so if there's anyone who know physics quite well, please check it for me...

    from another site:
    rounded up, it will be 162. looks like it could be correct, as its similar to lazypando's answer.

    btw, lazypando, 162.064 rounded up is 162, not 163.

    What lenny trophies do you have? I can't get better than my silver, mainly because I'm never on right when it is released.
