The golden mean is best captured by which of these slogans?
The Golden Mean is the ideal in-between position between two extremes. It can also be synonymous with "golden section," meaning a certain ratio in geometry that is supposed to be very pleasant to look at.
What do you mean by tapping of transformer?
'Tappings' are externally-accessible electrical connections to the turns of a transformer's (usually high-voltage) winding. This enables the number of turns to be changed, resulting in a change to the transformer's turns ratio and, therefore, to its voltage ratio. Tap changing enables the electricity network company to adjust the turns ratio in response to any excessive voltage reduction resulting from a heavy load.

What type of number is the golden ratio?
I am not certain what you mean by "type." The golden ratio is the number (1+Sqrt(5))/2, and is thus a real, irrational number.
What number is the golden ratio?
The golden ratio, or golden mean, or phi, is about 1.618033989. The golden ratio is the ratio of two quantities such that the ratio of the sum to the larger is the same as the ratio of the larger to the smaller. If the two quantities are a and b, their ratio is golden if a > b and (a+b)/a = a/b. This ratio is known as phi, with a value of about 1.618033989. Exactly, the ratio is (1 + square root(5))/2.
What movies has the golden ratio been a theme in?
The Golden ratio featured largely in the movie Donald in Mathmagic Land. I also believe it is mentioned in The Da Vinci Code movie. Also the moviePi is really good and it is about the golden mean, the golden ratio and the Fibonacci sequence.
What is the ratio known as the Golden Mean also called the Fibonacci Rectangle?
In order for two quantities to be in the Gold Ratio, also called the Golden Mean, then the ratio of the sum of the quantities to the larger quantity has to be equal to the ratio of the larger quantity, to the smaller one. The Mathematical value of the Golden Mean is 1.6180339887.
What is the Golden Ratio of 6 inches?
The golden ratio, also known as the golden mean, is 1.61803399.Using that factor, the golden ratio of 6 inches would be:6 in. * 1.61803399 = 9.70820394 inches. Rounding produces 9.7 in.

Yes They are all the ratio 1.618:1, or (1+51/2)/2:1
What does the Greek letter 'phi' mean?
It symbolizes the golden ratio. The Golden Ratio: The number approximately equal to 1.618033989... which is exactly equal to (1+√5)/2, If you divide a line into two parts so that the longer part divided by the smaller part is also equal tothe whole length divided by the longer part, then, you will have the Golden Ratio.
What is Golden Mean and its uses?
Also called the golden ratio. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratioA Greek philosopher and scientist, Aristole taught the golden mean philosophy.
What is Mother nature's magical number?
There is no one "magical number" but ratios which are found everywhere in nature. First is Pi, 3.14 which is used in circles which can be found using the Fibonacci Sequence. The second important number is the Golden Mean or the Golden Number/Ratio, which is 1.618. This number has a natural relationship through Primes numbers, specially Primes Quadruplets. The Golden Mean can be found almost everywhere in nature (patterns) and also in ancient human constructions such as Pyramids and the Parthenon. A modern author that used this ratio to build his "Coral Castle" is Edward Leedskalnin
What the golden mean?

Can the golden ratio be present within your own brain and body at the atomic or subatomic level what do you think it mean. Is this number evidence of a design a massive freak coincidence or something?
The "golden ratio" is simply a number with certain properties. Claims that this number appears all over the place are, to a great extent, exaggerated - no "freak coincidence".
What is golden function?
Perhaps you mean the golden ratio or golden section.If you divide a segment in two so that the ratio of the small part to the large part is the same as the ratio of the large part to the whole segment, then the ratio of the two parts is known as the golden ratio. This was known to the ancient Greeks, and was said to produce pleasing images and architecture.The exact value can be found from (1 + sqrt(5))/2 = (1 + 2.2360679775...)/2 or approximately 3.236/2 = 1.618. This number is usually represented by the Greek letter phi, which looks like an "o" with a vertical line through it.The ratio can be expressed as 1.618 : 1 or 1 : 0.618 or 0.618 : 0.382.
