Aperson standing at the top of mountain aconcagua would be approximately 4.3 mi high. the radius of earth is 3959 mi. what is the distance to the horizon from this point? enter your answer as a decimal in the box. round only your final answer to the nearest tenth. mi

The height of the person and mountain, the radius of the earth, and the distance to the horizon formulate a relationship of Pythagorean theorem.  

Thus , hypotenuse = sum of the radius of the earth and the height of the person and mountain.

C = 3959 mi + 4.3 mi

   = 3963.3 mi

C2 = A2 + B2

B=√C2−A2

B =√(3963.3 mi)2−(3959)2

B =184.6 mi

The distance to the horizon is 184.6 mi

  the unit of the measure =

explanation:

  the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one.

  si unit of energy = joule (j)

  si unit of temperature = kelvin (k)

  si unit of mass of material = kilogram (kg)

the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one is called specific heat.

the unit of specific heat is
