How far can you see? Because of the curvature of earth. The maximum distance 
that you can see from the top of a tall building or from an airplane at height h is given by the function
. Where

Find 
How far can you see from the observation deck of Toronto’s CN Tower,1135 ft above the ground
Commercial aircraft fly at an altitude of about 7 miles. How far can the pilot see?
Find the net change in the value of distance as h changes from 1135ft to 7 miles.
