The following quotation is taken from the article “Quantum Black Holes”, by Bernard J. Carr and Steven B. Giddings, in the
May 2005 issue of Scientific American. "The total time for a black hole to evaporate away is proportional to the cube of its
initial mass. For a solar-mass hole, the lifetime is an unobservably long 1064 years."
a. Recall that the solar mass is 2 × 10³0 kilograms. Write a formula for the lifetime, L, of a black hole as a function of its
mass, m. Start by finding the value of the constant k, then write your function using the letter k (rather than its value in
scientific notation). For example, for a direct variation you would write “L(m) = km”.
k = a × 10¹ where a =
L(m) =

b.
The universe must be closed.
c.
The universe is finite.
d.
The amount of dark matter must be far less than the amount of normal matter.
e.
The universe must be infinitely old.
The accleration of protons in a cyclotron is shown in the figure below.
The magnetic field in a cyclotron is 1.25 T, and the maximum orbital radius of the circulating protons
is 0.4 m. The mass of a proton is 1.67-10-27 kg and the charge on a proton is 1.6-10-19 C.

- Since 1995, hundreds of extrasolar planets have been discovered. There is the exciting possibility that there is life on one or more of these planets. To support life similar to that on the Earth, the planet must have liquid water. For an Earth-like planet orbiting a star like the Sun, this requirement means that the planet must be within a habitable zone of 0.9 AU to 1.4 AU from the star. The semimajor axis of an extrasolar planet is inferred from its period. What range in periods corresponds to the habitable zone for an Earth-like Planet orbiting a Sun-like star?arrow_forward1.
