Drag equation exponent variation
The motion of a falling body of mass m is given by where the term −kvr accounts for drag due to air resistance. One can derive r = 2 under simple physical assumptions, but if I remember correctly other values of r may be more realistic in certain circumstances. I

Suppose you select a 100-digit number at random. How many distinct prime factors do you think it would have? The answer is smaller than you might think: most likely between 5 and 6. The function ω(n) returns the number of distinct prime factors of n [1]. A theorem of Hardy

The previous post mentioned that 24! ≈ 1024 and 25! ≈ 1025. For every n, there is some base b such that n! = bn. For example, 30! ≈ 1230. It’s easy to find b: What’s interesting is that b is very nearly a linear function of n. In hindsight
