<h2>Answers:</h2>

<h2>1. event horizon </h2>

The event horizon is the surface of a black hole, it is the border of space-time in which the events on one side of it can not affect an observer on the other side.

That is, at this border also called <em>"point of no return"</em>, nothing can escape (not even light) and no event that occurs within it can be seen from outside.  

<h2>2. gravitational lensing  </h2>

According to Einstein's theory of relativity, mass causes the curvature of spacetime and this curvature is what we call <u>gravity</u>.

Then, the light always move following the curvature that gravity causes in spacetime, and in this way the rays of light are deflected if there is a mass accumulation nearby. Being this is the principle of the gravitational lensing.

<h2>3. black hole </h2>

According to Einstein's theory of relativity, inside a black hole there is a <em>"singularity"</em> that consists of a region of the space in which <u>the density of matter tends to infinity. </u>

How is it possible?

Following what relativity establishes, bodies within a gravitational field follow a curved space path. Then the more a body enters the black hole, the more curved the space will become, until, in the center, it will become infinitely curved.

<h2>4. gravitational waves </h2>

Gravitational waves were discovered (theoretically) by Albert Einstein in 1916 and "observed" for the first time in direct form in 2015.

These gravitational waves  are fluctuations or disturbances of space-time produced by a massive accelerated body, modifying the distances and the dimensions of objects in an imperceptible way.

In this context, an excellent example is the system of two neutron stars that orbit high speeds, producing a deformation that propagates like a wave, <u>in the same way as when a stone is thrown into the water. </u>

<h2>5. wormhole</h2>

A wormhole is <u>a hypothetical feature of a space-time</u> described in the equations of general relativity, which essentially consists of a shortcut through space and time.  It is not proven that they exist, although <u>mathematically they are possible</u> .

In other words:

A wormhole is a tunnel that joins two black holes in different places (two points of spacetime).

<h2>6. time dilation (gravitational) </h2>

The dilation of time is a phenomenon that results from the theory of relativity, which states that time passes at different rates in regions of different gravitational potential.

That is, the greater the local distortion of spacetime due to gravity, the slower the time passes.

<h2>7.  gravitational redshift</h2><h2 />

When we talk about the <u>visible electromagnetic spectrum</u>, we know it starts in violet-blue and ends in red.  

Now, in this context the astronomer Edwin Powell Hubble observed several celestial bodies, and when obtaining the spectra of distant galaxies he observed that the spectral lines were displaced towards the red one (red shift), whereas the nearby stars showed a spectrum displaced to the blue one.  

From there, it was deduced that the farther an body in the universe is, the more redshifted it is in its spectrum.  This effect is due to the dilation and contraction of time by speed.

A man attempts to pick up his suitcase of weight ws by pulling straight up on the handle. However, he is unable to lift the suit
kvasek [131]

Answer:

b)

Explanation:

Normal force, is always directed upward the surface over which is placed the object, and can adopt any value, as required to meet Newton's 2nd Law.

In this case, as the external force on the suitcase pulls upward, in order  to counteract the influence of gravity, normal force is less than the weight of the suitcase, as follows:

F + Fn = m*g

⇒ Fn = m*g - F

So, the normal force is equal to the magnitude of the weight of the suitcase (m*g) minus the magnitude of the force of the pull (F) which is the same expressed by the statement b.

A mass tied to the end of a 1.0 m-long string is swinging back and forth From its lowest point, the mass moves 4 cm to the right
ehidna [41]

Answer:

a) 2seconds.

Explanation:

The period of oscillation will not change . It will still be 2seconds although the length was doubled to 8cm.

This is because the amplitude does not change oscillation time.
