Fear of flying persistent fear or anxiety when they consider flying, as well as during flying. They will avoid flying if they can, and the fear, anxiety, and avoidance cause significant distress and impair their ability to function. Take-off, bad weather, and turbulence appear to be the most anxiety provoking aspects of flying. The most extreme manifestations can include panic attacks or vomiting at the mere sight or mention of an aircraft or air travel. Around 60% of people with fear of flying report having some other anxiety disorder. The causes of flight phobia and the mechanisms by which it is maintained were
Proof that e is irrational a proof that "e" is not a root of a second degree polynomial with rational coefficients. This last fact implies that "e" is irrational. His proofs are similar to Fourier's proof of the irrationality of "e". In 1891, Hurwitz explained how it is possible to prove along the same line of ideas that "e" is not a root of a third degree polynomial with rational coefficients. In particular, "e" is irrational. More generally, "e" is irrational for any non-zero rational "q". Proof that e is irrational The number "e" was introduced by Jacob Bernoulli in 1683. More than half a
