Go ahead
8 inches per mile works just fine at shorter distances
What's the equation using that factor
52 x 52 x 8 / 12
52 x 52 x 7.98 / 12
In variable form, what is it?
What is that 12 for
To get inches to feet
Oh ok cool
So what is the equation in variable form
I dont know but it doesnt work in reality
Why 52 x 52
It doesn't mean squared like that
It means m^2 not (m)^2
Cuz that's how its done
Square the distance
We need an equation to test
1 mile
1x1x8รท12
2 miles
2x2x8รท12
That makes the curvature an exponential and that's not how a sphere or near shpere works
Yes it is
Wtf are you sayinh
The curtvature can't work as an exponential
Heloo
No one on voice?
Its curvature would get progressively more sharp if it were an exponential
Tell me the parabolic drop for one mile on a earth with 3959 mile radius
```HYMN TO "R"
Our Eratosthenes whose sticks measured the heavens,
Hallowed be thy name,
Thy circumference come,
Thy radius be done,
On Earth as it measures in the heavens,
Give us this day our daily shadows,
And forgive us for assuming the distance to the sun,
To give us the globe.
R-men```
And it's mostly uniform
Why no one on voice?
The curve does get more sharp
1 mile is 8 inches
10 miles is 66 feet
7.98 per mile
This is globe model math
That's still not an equation
Per mile squared is taking it as an area
Not a length
