Emetophobia in public or having to witness someone else vomit, as the start of the emetophobia. They may also be afraid of hearing that someone is feeling like vomiting or that someone has vomited, usually in conjunction with the fears of seeing someone vomit or seeing vomit. There is a strong agreement in the scientific community that there is no specific cause of emetophobia. Some emetophobics report a traumatic experience with vomiting, always in childhood. Some suggest that sufferers are victims of childhood abuse – sexual or physical. While this is occasionally true, it seems to be no more prevalent than
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
