Answer:

  (b)  √6 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Putting the given heights into the formula, we find the difference in distances to be ...

  Adam' horizon distance = √((3/2)(400)) = 10√6 . . . miles

  Pam's horizon distance = √((3/2)(324)) = 9√6 . . . . miles

Then the difference Adam can see is farther than the distance Pam can see by ...

  10√6 -9√6 = √6 . . . miles
