The Gibb’s Hill Lighthouse. Southampton, Bermuda In operation since 1846, the Gibb’s Hill Lighthouse stands 117 feet high on a hill 245 feet high, so its beam of light is 362 feet above sea level. Abrochure states that ships 40 miles away can see the light and planes flying at 10,000 feet
can see it 120 miles away. Verify the accuracy of these statements. What assumption did the brochure make about the height of the ship?
