the key word is "squared"
52 x 8?
nope
What is it then
Huh
8 inches per mile squared
just look at the chart
Yes how many miles squared is this image taken from
an inch is 0.1 feet, correct?
1/12th of a foot
So about 0.08
Ish
52 miles?
jesus christ, metric is so much more logical
and a mile is 100 or 10 times as much as a feet, no?
ok in metric system its 7.8 cm per kilometer squred
that isnt a lot
the chart has metric system too
52 square miles covers an area 52 miles wide by 52 long
at all
It's not the 52^2
but remember its a 'ball'
In distance
Key word is squared, which makes it a parabola
the rate of curvature accelerates much faster than you think as the variable gets bigger
its not 52 x 2 or 52^2
No you're claiming it's an exponential which is wrong you have your maths wrong
It's a constant
You're treating it as working the area of a square
you saying 8inches per mile squared is wrong?
No it's right
you saying the chart is wrong?
But I'm saying something 52 miles away with show 52x8" of curvature
it seems like you dont understand the math
No you
It's not 52^2 x 8"
That's wrong
It's just 52 x 8"
