Astraphobia Astraphobia Astraphobia, also known as astrapophobia, brontophobia, keraunophobia, or tonitrophobia is an abnormal fear of thunder and lightning, a type of specific phobia. It is a treatable phobia that both humans and animals can develop. The term astraphobia is composed of the words ἀστραπή (astrape; lightning) and φόβος (phobos; fear). A person with astraphobia will often feel anxious during a thunderstorm even when they understand that the threat to them is minimal. Some symptoms are those accompanied with many phobias, such as trembling, crying, sweating, panicked reactions, the sudden feeling of using the bathroom, nausea, the feeling of dread, insertion
Irrational number the coefficients formula_7 are integers and formula_8. Any rational root of this polynomial equation must be of the form "r" /"s", where "r" is a divisor of "a" and "s" is a divisor of "a". If a real root formula_9 of a polynomial formula_10 is not among these finitely many possibilities, it must be an irrational algebraic number. An exemplary proof for the existence of such algebraic irrationals is by showing that "x" = (2 + 1) is an irrational root of a polynomial with integer coefficients: it satisfies ("x" − 1) = 2 and hence "x" − 2"x" −
