No. All polynomials and rational functions fall off drastically slower than exponential.
- whatshisface 7y agoWe're talking about the rise in power as you get closer. 1/x² has a singularity, I doubt exp(x) can beat that...
- tomrod 7y agoGood point! -ln(x) may (would have to check), but exp(0) = 1 and 1/02 is defined as positive infinity (the Real numbers are not closed under division).
- enedil 7y agoNo, division just isn't a total function.
- tomrod 7y agoI think these may be the same thing in this case.
- fulldecent2 7y agoI'm following along in this thread here and double checking everybody's math. So... does this mean I will die from radiation or not?
- whatshisface 7y agoThis thread is actually irrelevant to the radiation question due to the plane radiator thing mentioned above.
