What else can I help you with?
An object so massive and dense that even light cannot escape its gravity is called what?
You are describing what we call a "black hole'. It was actually predicted in the theory of relativity. Formulated by Albert Einstein in 1905, the theory of relativity is the notion that the laws of physics are the same everywhere. The theory explains the behavior of objects in space and time, and it was used to predict everything from the existence of black holes, to light bending due to gravity, to the behavior of the planet Mercury in its orbit.
Who was the first person to discover black holes?
Karl Schwarzschild developed the idea for black holes from relativity’s equations in 1916, just a year after Einstein published his theory. For this reason, early physicists studying these bizarre objects often called them “frozen stars.” Today, we know them by the name first used by Wheeler in 1967: black holes.
What did black holes used to be?
Most black holes were once the cores of very large stars that collapsed.
What phrase has been used to describe the event horizon in black holes?
The phrase commonly used to describe the event horizon in black holes is "point of no return."
What American physicist pioneered the theory of black holes in 1939?
John Archibald Wheeler is the American physicist who pioneered the theory of black holes in 1939. He coined the term "black hole" in 1967 and made significant contributions to our understanding of these phenomena.
What adjectives may be used when describing the warden in holes?
selfish sly intimidating unpolite showoff
How do you use Fibonacci in reality?
the Fibonacci numbers are used in describing the spirals in a flower, shells and the like. It is also used in number theory of the golden triangle.
If something ges sucked into a black hole will it come out of the other end?
The current theory by Stephen Hawking is that black holes slowly "evaporate" over time; so if you are sucked into a black hole you are crushed to microscopic size and held in the black hole; and then billions of years later the elemental particles elements that were you are released back into space to be re-used for something else.
What was Stephen Hawking's major contribution to science?
well for one thing he constantly raises money and awareness for ALS patients. He also is the reason a lot of places, especially in England, have wheelchair access. before him they didnt and people in wheelchairs couldn't go see operas or even go to university because there was no wheelchair access.
What adjectives may be used when describing Holes the book?
well, that's a weird question... The adjectives in the book holes are just like any other adjectives :P
Can you see a video of the black hole in space?
While there are no direct videos of black holes in space, astronomers have used telescopes to capture images of the matter surrounding black holes, known as the black hole's accretion disk. These images help us study black holes and their properties, but we cannot directly see the black hole itself due to its nature of trapping light.
How do scientists know something about black holes?
As you might imagine, it's very difficult to observe black holes. For a very long time, we weren't even sure we _could_. As it happens, there are a few aspects of black holes that make it possible to detect their presence, but their nature prevents us from directly observing what occurs inside the singularity. Since we can't observe them, the main way scientists understand black holes is through mathematics. Karl Schwartzchild first predicted them as one solution to the Einstein field equations at the heart of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, back in 1915. Later scientists found additional solutions that also pointed toward the existence of black holes, and helped refine our prediction of the behavior of space-time near them. Quantum field theory has been used, as well. One of the best known cases is Dr. Stephen Hawking's prediction, in 1974, that black holes should act like a black body, radiating energy in an amount inversely proportional to the surface gravity of the black hole. The amount of 'Hawking radiation' produced by a mass the size of a star ends up being very small. A black hole with the mass of our sun would emit only 9 × 10−29 watts.
