Question

Subsidence profile function, s(x), along the lateral cross-section over a flat longwall panel is given as

s(x)=0.8[0.996tanh(8.3xD)],ms(x) = 0.8 \left[ 0.996 - \tanh \left( \frac{8.3x}{D} \right) \right], \, \text{m}

where xx = distance (m) from the inflection point and DD = depth (m) of the seam. Considering that the inflection point lies vertically above the edge of the panel, the angle of draw in degrees for a depth of 250 m is ______.
