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
Is it flat?
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?
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
So 5 square miles is flat correct?
The angles change with each section of 5 miles lol
I see you @rightthehand
No curve in 5 square miles
Yes or no?
It's like a circle
Is there bend of earth in 5 square miles?@Albert Einstein
A tiny section, little curve, but each section you go the angle of each one change by a tiny amount
Between the 40 mile and the 45 mile for instance
