Why is light increasingly redshifted as it approaches a black hole?
Light is increasingly redshifted as it approaches a black hole due to the strong gravitational pull of the black hole. This gravitational pull causes the light waves to stretch out, which results in the light being shifted towards the red end of the spectrum.
Why are black holes black and what causes them to have such a strong gravitational pull that not even light can escape?
Black holes are black because their gravitational pull is so strong that not even light can escape from them. This strong gravitational pull is caused by the massive amount of matter packed into a small space, creating a dense and compact object with intense gravity.
Does a massive elliptical galaxy have a lot or very little gravitational force on other galaxies?
Massive means there is a lot of mass - and gravitational attraction depends on the amount of mass. The amount of gravitational attraction also depends on the distance - i.e., the effect will be less at larger distances. The gravitational attraction between galaxies is strong enough to make galaxies in a galaxy cluster stay together - for example, in our Local Group.
Why would an asteroid have a difficult time of holding a probe or a person on it?
Many asteroids are not massive enough to cause a strong gravitational pull on a probe or a person.
Is the Earth exerts a greater force back up on you because it is so massive?
The strength of any gravitational field is directly related to the mass of the object which generates that field. So, the Earth exerts a strong gravitational attraction because it is a massive planet (although there are some other planets in our solar system such as Jupiter and the other gas giants, which are much more massive).
What would be the greatest force of gravitational attraction?
The force of gravitational attraction between two objects is strongest when their masses are large and they are very close together. For example, a planet and a star or two massive celestial bodies would experience a strong gravitational attraction between them.
Why is our gravitational pull not as strong as the earth's?
I cannot speak for you, but my mass is considerably less than that of the earth. The earth is approx one hundred sextillion times as massive as me.
What is a collapsed star with strong gravitation?
depends on how strong.... when a massive star's life ends and it collapses on itself extremely quickly... it forms a black hole and the black hole has an EXTREMELY strong gravitational pull..... so i think the answer is black hole
Is light affected by Earth's gravitational pull?
Yes, light is affected by Earth's gravitational pull. According to the theory of general relativity, light bends when passing through regions with strong gravitational fields, such as around massive objects like Earth. This effect is known as gravitational lensing.
Why does the sun exert such a strong gravitational pull on eveything else in the solar system?
Because it is massive: the sun accounts for almost all the mass of the whole solar system.
Which object in our solour system has the biggest gravitational pull and why?
In our solar system it would be the sun. But there are much more massive objects beyond our solar sytem that would have a higher pull - the more massive an object is the higher its gravitational pull. a black hole has a huge gravitational pull, so strong that light cannot escape.
Imagine the Earth is getting close to the event horizon of a very massive black hole What will happen to the Earth?
As the Earth approaches the event horizon of a massive black hole, tidal forces would become so strong that it would be stretched and ripped apart. The intense gravitational pull would cause the planet to disintegrate into a stream of particles before eventually being pulled into the black hole beyond the event horizon.
