Your distance d (in miles) from the horizon can be approximated by d=1.22Vh. where h is your eye level (in feet above ground level). What is your eye level when you
are 9.76 miles from the horizon?

He cannot see a ship that is 4.5 miles away.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Here, h is the eye level above the water

d is the distance away.

If h = 12 feet

We will get :

Hence, it is 10.39 feet away when eye level is 12 feet above the water.

Therefore , he cannot see a ship that is 4.5 miles away.
