Can you see .001 degrees of curve in a line 5 miles long?
Can i ask what discusssion youre talking about right now?
But over 40 miles?
You'll see this:
If a line was 17,000 feet long
Look at the picture
Why don’t you answer?
No
Answer
Can you see .001 degrees of curve in a line 5 miles long?
With a telescope at the correct point?
Maybe
You would see a 16 foot deviation in a line over 26,000 feet long?
Lololol
That’s. .001% bend
Let's do 40 miles now
No
5 miles
Yes or no
It's quite flat within 5 miles
Now 40 miles
Look at it!
Quite flat? Or .001 degree of bend flat
Is that flatter then a house floor?
Yeah, a straight line will deviate 16 feet over those 5 miles from "straight"
That’s 500 square feet?
Not much at all
What's your point lol?
This is just basic geometry
Now 40 miles
let's go
!
Could you tell .001 deviation on a floor 5000 square feet?
That's more interesting because over 40 miles it's not at all subtle
Or would it look flat?
600 feet of buildings blocked by water
Wait I’m getting ready to checkmate you
