Ingrown toenail. An ingrown toenail occurs when the edge of the nail grows down and into the skin of the toe. Causes. An ingrown toenail can result from a number of things. Poorly fitting shoes and toenails that are not properly trimmed are the most common causes. The skin along the edge of a toenail may become red and infected.
Best Answer: It depends on your height above the surface of the water. where h is the height above ground or sea level (in meters) of the eye of the observer. For an observer standing at sea level with h = 1.70 metres (5 ft 7 in) (average eye-level height), the horizon is at a distance of 4.7 kilometres (2.9 mi).
But. h / 5280 is much smaller then 2r, hence 2r + h / 5280 is approximately 2r and thus. Substituting r = 3963 miles give the neat result that if your eyes are h feet above the earth, then the distance to the horizon IN MILES is about. Thus a person 6 feet tall standing on level ground can see for about 3 miles. So, theoretically, a person 6' tall (with binoculars) should be able to see the top of the head of a six-footer who is 6 miles away. He would see the whole person at a distance of 3 miles. Chris.
