Is it possible to know the distance of an object when it is at a certain scale? For example, the 60 foot cube at 1:48 scale would be 1.25 feet. If we are looking at a scale model airplane or ship that is in 1:48 scale, what would be the distance? If you are looking at a 1:48 scale model on your desk, and you are pretending that you are actually looking at the real object from a distance, what would that distance be?

Thank you for the replies, but I still don't understand how to get the new size for a 60 foot cube when it is viewed at 1 mile away.

Hello to everyone, Is it possible to write a mathematical formula that will give us the size of an object at various distances? For example, let's say we have a large cube that is 60 feet in size, and we wanted to know how many feet the cube would appear to be when we looked at it at these distances: .5 of a mile 1 mile 2 miles Is there a formula that can accurately calculate what the size of the cube would be when looking at it at these distances? Thank you, Chris
