Meindert, dougies will argue on and on and on and on and on and on hoping you
forget what you originally said. dougiees is one dumb squat pretending to be
human.

Ok, I'm going to argue this one only once: by mathematical definition, a
squared function is NOT asymptotic. Because, as you can read in any
mathematics book, an asymptote reaches infinity on one axis for a

defined
value on the other axis, while a squared function can reach infinity on

both
axes.


Oh, OK. I see now...

Please explain further... the power/speed graph can reach infinity on
both axes? Does this mean that we can have negative horsepower? That
would make for excellent fuel efficiency!


Sigh! With both axes I mean X and Y axis. And in our case only in the first
quadrant, where X and Y are positive.
