yoru defending a position and your blind
HAHAH
There is a generalsed formula but because the earth isn't perfectly sphere tlthe curvature differs
As someone told you above
that is a fact
let me tell you the curve
so it doesn't interest him
so you can know the formula
That you would have read if you were interested in deabte, but you aren't
don't bother arguing with me
waste of time
8 inches squared per mile
7,98*
or 8, if we will.
7.98 is closer, but 8 is easier to work with
at 2 miles its roghly 32
at 3 miles its roughly hiding 6 feet of curvature, according to globe believers
^
Get it right
your going to continue to use stuff I said out of context?
YES
don't quote me again Big Lover
It's kinda funny
I'm warning you
No
The context matters
You’re getting the math entirely wrong Kevin. It’s 8 inches per mile squared. A tiny mistake in wording, but it makes a huge difference.
So one mile is eight inches
he's not interested in facts
Its the principle that matters meta
but good point nonetheless
Approximately
Yes why does the horizon occur anyway?
the problem is that if you actually try to use it for close work, you can have hills creating fake curvature
or you can have someone level the hills, and then what, you removed that curvature in the short term?
And why does your horizon distance increase as you gain altitude?
