A cloud directly above you is about 10° across. From the weather report, you know that the cloud is at an altitude of 2200 m. Ho
Vikentia [17]

The width of the cloud is : 384 m

<u>Given data :</u>

Cloud altitude = 2200 m

Temperature = 10°

<h3></h3><h3>Determine how wide the cloud is </h3>

applying the equation below

I = d(\frac{\alpha }{57.3})

where : I = linear size , d = 2200 m ,  \alpha  = 10^{o}

therefore :

I = 2200 ( 10 / 57.3 )

 = 383.94 m

 ≈ 384 m

Hence we can conclude that the width of the cloud is : 384 m

muminat
Animal fats and hydrogenated vegetable margarine contain saturated triglycerides. Saturated triglycerides are those that are made of saturated fatty acids. These saturated fatty acids are capable of forming atheroma (/plaques) along arterial walls, causing atherosclerosis or arteriosclerosis. These could both result in coronary thrombosis (blocking of a coronary artery by a clot of blood), and hence a myocardial infarction (heart attack).
