Exponential Growth (and how it can surprise our Linear-thinking human brains!)

This video is about Exponential Growth and Why you can't fold a piece of paper in half 10 times over. Exponential Growth can scale up so quickly that it's difficult for us humans to understand it at first glance. We will see examples of Exponential Growth using 3 examples:
1. How folding paper in half 44 times over can get us to the moon!
2. How the creator of chess used the principle of exponential growth to get rich quick!
3. how 1 cent doubling every day over 1 month can result in over $2.5 million!

Enjoy!

But the numbers in the calculators are all mirror images.

Is exponential decline true in dangerous radioactivity? Example of soviet Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generators they made electricity for about twenty eight years and then were abandoned for not making enough? electricity. Will the strontium-90 waste become safer any time soon?
