True or false The escape speed from a black hole would be  greater than the speed of light. If the impact time of a collision is increased, the force of impact will decrease. A size of a Kelvin  degree (oK) is larger than a Celsius degree (oC).
If the inner accretion disk around a black hole has a temperature of 10 6 K, at what wavelength will it radiate the most energy?   a. 106 nm   b. 3 nm   c. 3 × 106 nm   d. 1 nm   e. 3 × 1011 nm
Which of the following statements best describes the behaviour of an object falling towards the Event Horizon of a Black Hole (according to an observer a long way from it)? As gravity increases the falling object will not suffer any change in appearence or the progression of time. As gravity increases the object's light will be compressed, leading to it looking bluer, with time appearing to passing more slowly for it. The falling object will appear to experience an increase in the rate of time, and it's colour will appear evermore red. As the falling object experiences ever stronger gravity, it will become redder and time will appear to pass more slowly for it.
