As you expand the Fibonacci series, each new value in proportion to the previous approaches the Golden Ratio.
The ratio of successive terms in the Fibonacci sequence approaches the Golden ratio as the number of terms increases.
The ratio of (distance) / (time), called "speed".The ratio of (speed) / (time), called "acceleration".The ratio of (force) / (area), called "pressure".The ratio of (force) / (acceleration), called "mass".The ratio of (mass) / (volume), called "density".The ratio of (distance) / (volume), sometimes called "fuel economy".The ratio of ( 1 ) / (time), called "frequency".The ratio of (energy) / (time), called "power".
The "golden ratio" is the limit of the ratio between consecutive terms of the Fibonacci series. That means that when you take two consecutive terms out of your Fibonacci series and divide them, the quotient is near the golden ratio, and the longer the piece of the Fibonacci series is that you use, the nearer the quotient is. The Fibonacci series has the property that it converges quickly, so even if you only look at the quotient of, say, the 9th and 10th terms, you're already going to be darn close. The exact value of the golden ratio is [1 + sqrt(5)]/2
Sex ratio denotes the ratio of males to females in a population. The primary sex ratio is the ratio at the time of conception, secondary sex ratio is the ratio at time of birth, and tertiary sex ratio is the ratio of adult human beings. According to CIA estimates the current world sex ratio at birth is 107 boys to 100 girls. In 2010 the global sex ratio was 986 females to 1000 males, which got further reduced to 984 females to 1000 males in 2011.
