Imagine the Earth as a perfect sphere. (It is not, but picture it
this way for the sake of this puzzie.) Then imagine the equator
is a long belt that has been looped around the Earth and
fastened snugly.
If you loosened that belt by
2 meters and pulled the belt
away from the surface,
h o w m u c h slack would
there be? In o t h e r
words, how high
could you pull the
belt? The answer
is either .03 meters,
.33 meters o r 3.3
meters-but which?

.33

If you added two meters, the circumference would be 2 meters bigger (duh)
the circumference divided by the radius is 2pi

This means the circumference divided by 2pi is the answer

and since 2pi (or tau) is roughly six, the only one that works is 1/3 to make it 2
