2. The wingspan of a Boeing 737 commercial airplane is around 117 feet, which is equivalent to 355.68 centimeters. This means that 512 centimeters is slightly more than half the wingspan of this large airplane.
3. The Empire State Building in New York City stands at a height of 1,454 feet, which is approximately 442.62 centimeters. This makes 512 centimeters only a little over one-tenth of the height of this famous building.
