That's not really a distance you can measure. What you can measure is the magnification ability. Magnification power is equal to the telescope's focal length divided by the eyepiece's focal length. The Focal length is 500mm, the rest of the magnification power would be dependent on the eyepiece being used. With the included 9.7mm and 26mm eyepieces, you would see about 50x and 20x magnification.
Included Accessories: red dot viewfinder , star map , two Eyepieces
You would need an adapter for a phone to be mounted to the eyepiece of the telescope.

That really depends on how you define intermediate. If you're looking for something that will give you greater viewing ability and retain the manual aspects of astronomy, this should be a solid setup for an intermediate user.
The set also includes an adjustable tripod.
