At about 3 miles 5 foot objects are gone
K keep goin. Dont forget to read James gibson
Gnite
Ok just a sec I'm doing the math
Tired nite
This is what the angle would be using the height of the observer and the distance of three miles
Which part ?
1 inch off the ground or 5 feet up?
6 feet?
I'm tired gotta goto sleep
The angle that was labeled in the last pic
Ugh whatever ok
What height did you use?
This is the distance the object would disappear using 0.02 as the angle and 6ft as the height of the observer
I used 6 ft for both
Feel free to check the math
It's simple geometry
Cool.thanks ill look at it
So what r u saying?
According to the information provided, objects of the size specified would vanish fully at 299.96 feet instead of 3 miles
You must of done something wrong
You're welcome to find where I messed up
Think about what you are saying
I did
5 foot object doesnt disappear at 300 feet
It does at 3 miles
Now you're catching on
It would vanish to the naked eye
At 300 feet the bottom few inches prolly start disappearing
Without a telescope
5 feet isn't too big
I would imagine it'd be hard to see from that far away
The bottom starts disappearing, sure. But that's assuming you can see it without using a telescope
Thats what we are talking about just human vision limits
Ok hun
The angle of light going into the retina
In the back of the eye
Yep
