Thanks!

Would a silver suite be a better body temperature decreaser than a mister of water? I cool myself off by spraying myself with water but I hear silver is the best conductor, is it better at conducting heat off my body than mist?

TY nasu. Why is the answer 75.96? Why is the answer not 45 degrees?

Why is the answer 75.96? How is that intuitive? Why is it the same on every planet?

So I noticed that gravitational constant g cancels out of the equation, does that imply gravity is not a factor in answering this question? Which would imply that the same angle would work on the moon? Why is the answer not 45 degrees? Why is the answer greater?

O okay, so would Newton's method be the best numerical technique for this trigonometric equation that we can restrict the angles?

I used these equations. How do I solve the one I posted?

I got 0.5sin2x-sin(2x)=0 but I don't know how to algebraically solve that equation

And does the answer depend on gravity? In other words would it be the same angle on the moon?

so why does the math permit the arrow pointing downwards? which equation implies that? so do all anti-particles by convention point downwards? Thanks!

thank you! <Edited to remove personal theory>

Thanks for your answer. My question is, is it possible that tritium could decay in 1 second? Or how about 1 eon?

The arrow for the electron antineutrino is pointing down which is against time, why is that?

For example tritium has a half life of of 12.3 years. So if you had 2 atoms of tritium then after 12.3 year you would expect to have 1 atom of tritium and 1 atom of h-3. My question is, is it possible that tritium could decay in 1 second? Or how about 1 eon? I know its not probable but is it...
