Thanks to everyone that has replied, great information pointing me in the right direction. Evo - " It would make more sense to look at something that a lot of people would want, if it was legal, doesn't really have a legal producer yet (but it's coming), something of that nature, where they can...

Hi, No I don't think I got bush-wacked at all, in fact I admire Simon Bridge's way of thinking and appreciate his approach to problem solving. Such as asking the right questions in order to get an answer. Brain study...interesting, I will look into this. Internet porn is huge yes, but...

Hi, The presentation is for unethical corporate behaviour when companies make profit regardless of how they effect peoples health, like today we have tobacco companies, casino's and alcohol producers. They know that they will sell their products because of peoples addictive nature and habits...

Thanks for your reply . You took the words right out of my mouth, yes it can be psychological/physiological as well as biological. Okay marijuana is a good example because we've already seen that being legalized in some places.

Hi guys, I have a question that I need some help with. I'm not a biologist nor do I have any educational background in biology so please excuse any ignorance that I may show. I am writing a presentation which is called "Addictions that will be common in 10 years from now" It looks into...

I owe you one! Thank you so much

It's a mental visualisation exercise. Using an animation to show the growth of a company. I wanted to use an animation of an exploding star or something similar to show how a company grows rapidly and then growth or expansion slows down once it reaches a certain large enough point. SA1988...

Yeh but I need to use physics to describe it. Like an analogy

I'm basically writing a report on finance. To be precise it's to do with growth of a company. In the beginning a company can grow faster, but once the company reaches a very large position in its industry, the same growth rate cannot be maintained and hence the growth starts to slow down. I...

I think exponential decay might be what I am looking for. In what natural occurrences could exponential decay be seen in?

Or you have a balloon being filled with helium and the gas going in remains constant. It begins to inflate fast and then slows down as it gets bigger? I'm not looking for a specific object. Just a general term to describe this sort of rapid expansion and then slow down

hmm I don't know. An exploding star maybe. It explodes and rapidly expands outwards and then the expansion slows down as it gets larger and farther out. Is that a good way to describe what I am after?

Hi guys, I am not a physicist or a mathematician but I have a question relating to physics. I am trying to find a simple word to describe an effect so I can research it a bit more. As it stands at the moment, I don't know what to search for in Google. Imaging a small circle, and then it...

It is an incredible experience, and its useful too if one can regularly apply it in life, which is easier said than done. It takes a lot of commitment. It is like a high and I also try to study further to get that feeling again, but that feeling is always fleeting and its like I'm always...

I'd love to know how knowing hard science has been a mind expanding experience for you
