Black Hole

___________

It is the most mysterious thing in our universe.

✳ John Michell was the first scientist who gave his idea on black hole in 1783

✳ later than Pière simon described black holes in his book the system of the world in 1796.

What are black holes?

=>  It is also a celestial body which have infinite gravitational force and infinite mass and even light can not escape from it.

=> If any object goes near a black hole then time slows down for that object.

How black holes formed?

=> Mostly  black holes formed because of compression of mass and density of stars.

So,  first we know how stars formed and then black holes.

= stars are formed by the cloud of  gas and dust present in our universe which we simply called as Nebula.

= They are mostly composed of hydrogen and helium with some amount of another elements.

= when the density of nebula decreases then they contract because of their  gravitational force and then its temperature rises at very high level and in that temperature hydrogen atom makes helium by fusion reaction and because of the speed of hydrogen atom and also heat the nebula takes a spherical shape which we call star.

Now black hole formation -

= The gravitational force of stats are balanced by their heat.

And hydrogen acts as a fuel for it.

= and when its hydrogen  finishes then with passage of  time that star cools down and then its mass and density  becomes 4 times greater then its original mass and density.

And then that star can't control its gravitational force and then a blast occurs which we call supernova.

And after this blast if any of the piece of that star which have more mass remains then it becomes a star which have mass and density of a critical level and we call this as  Neutron star.

In this type of Neutron star because of its gravitational force then it starts contracting  and after contracting it at a critical level then it becomes a body which have infinite density and mass and because of this infinte density and mass the space time bents inward there and then it doesn't be there and we call this as a black hole.

Its whole mass is focused at center which we call it

✳ central singularity point 

And the boundary of black hole is called

✳ event horizon

And nothing can escape from here even light can't.

And here concept of time doesn't work.

=>  According to theory of relativity if the object is near the black hole then the time slows down for it.

Types of black holes

1. Stellar mass black hole

~> It is the type of black hole formed because of contraction of a star which have mass about 3 times greater than the sun.

2. Super massive black holes

~> It is formed in center of any galaxy and have infinite mass and gravitational force and it has mass about 100000000 times that of sun.

3. Permordial or small black holes

~> They are formed because of the more heat at the center of a star and the mass of that star is less than that of our sun.

Physicist  think that  they formed with the beginning of universe

✳ the nearest black from earth is 

cygnus x1

Black holes are great amounts of matter packed into a small space. When massive stars collapse upon themselves. When stars aren't able to fuel themselves they become compact. Which turn into black holes.

At room temperature what is the strength of the electric field in a 12-gauge copper wire (diameter 2.05 mm that is needed to cau
Dima020 [189]
Electric field strength = resistivity of copper x current density
where
p= 1.72 x 10^-8 <span>ohm meter
diameter = 2.05mm=.00205 m
current = 2.75 A
</span>get first the current density:
current density = current/ cross section area
find the cross section area
cross section area = pi.(d/2)^2;  
cross section = 3.3 006x10-6 m^2
substitute the values 
current density = 2.75A/3.3006x 10-6m^2
current density=35.55 x1 0^2 A/m^2
Electric field stregnth =1.72 x 10^-8 ohm meter x 35.55 x10^2 A/m^2
Electric field stregnth= 46.415 Volts/m

The electric field strength of copper is 46.415 V/m.

What is one disadvantage of a series circuit?
nlexa [21]

If one bulb goes out then all the others won't light up because electricity will be cut off. It's a disadvantage because in a parallel circuit if one bulb burns out all the others will still be on because they won't be affected. I hope I've helped you ☺

On Earth, a spring stretches by 5.0 cm when a mass of 3.0 kg is suspended from one end.
Neko [114]

Answer:

Mass = 18.0 kg

Explanation:

From Hooke's law,

F = ke

where: F is the force, k is the spring constant and e is the extension.

But, F = mg

So that,

mg = ke

On the Earth, let the gravitational force be 10 m/s^{2}.

3.0 x 10 = k x 5.0

30 = 5k

⇒ k = \frac{30}{5} ................ 1

On the Moon, the gravitational force is \frac{1}{6} of that on the Earth.

m x \frac{10}{6} = k x 5.0

\frac{10m}{6} = 5k

⇒ k = \frac{10m}{30} ............. 2

Equating 1 and 2, we have;

\frac{30}{5}  = \frac{10m}{30}

m = \frac{900}{50}

    = 18.0

m = 18.0 kg

The mass required to produce the same extension on the Moon is 18 kg.
