Answer:

1. length of a city block

2. length of a city park

Explanation:

You first have to make the conversion from scientific notation to regular numbers, the length of that object would be 2.1x 10,000= 21,000, so 21,000 centimeters are only 210 meters, that is too long to be height of a person, or an apple tree, the screen in a theater or the depth of water in a swimming pool, and is way too short to be the length across a city, so the only options would be length of a cuty block, and length of a city park.
