In this video, Savvas Nesseris explains the fascinating mechanism behind exponential growth and decay. We explore some of the most important mathematical properties of the exponential function and see how it appears in many real-world phenomena: compound interest and wealth accumulation, population and bacterial growth, radioactive decay, light amplification in lasers, and space travel.
