Gravitational singularity

interact with friction causing the matter to heat up and emit light. Because the matter spiraling towards singularity emits light, this light causes the accretion disk to be very bright. The ergosphere is the region where objects start to be affected by the gravitational pull of the black hole. It is the region right before the event horizon, where it is still possible to escape from the gravitational pull with the proper escape velocity. The ergosphere on black holes that rotate are regions that cause

American scientist John Wheeler to describe an object that had such a huge gravitational pull that not even light could escape it, thereby rendering it invisible or black. John Michell extended upon this idea in a paper called the "Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London" in which he pointed out that a star that was sufficiently massive and compact would have such a strong gravitational pull that not even

extended and moved without attributing sensible qualities. A moving naked singularity somewhere out in the intergalactic medium comes to mind. It has no sensible qualities that I can ascribe to it. Any primary and secondary qualities would arise wholly from other material around the singularity. Without material around it, it still exists to me without qualities (unless he would call my notions of the affect the singularity would have on incident matter qualities). I still acknowledge its existence

in nature that can support more than 2 1/2 solar masses of burned-out stellar material"(63). If there were more than 2 1/2 solar masses, the entire star would implode being crushed out of existence at a single point. During the implosion the gravitational fields become so great that the fabric of space and time would fold over themselves. The star would disappear from our universe leaving a black hole(Kaufmann 63). We live in a four dimensional universe, three dimensions of space and one

hypothesize that a singularity should form at the Cauchy horizon, forcing the evolution of the interior to stop at the Cauchy horizon, rendering the idea of a region after it meaningless. Recently this hypothesis was tested in a simple black hole model. A spherically symmetric black hole with a point electric charge has the same essential features as a rotating black hole. It was shown in the spherical model that the Cauchy horizon does develop a scalar curvature singularity. It was also found

the light around a suspected black hole acts and behaves. When scientists observe a possible black hole, the black hole appears as a dark sphere surrounded by smears of light. The apparent smearing of light is called “gravitational lensing,” (Vsauce 2:27). The effect of gravitational lensing would become most apparent if the earth were orbiting a black hole. At first, everything would appear normal; however, as the Earth crossed behind the black hole the light reflecting off of the Earth would warp

The gravitational force gets really weak, as you start moving away. Also, there are other thing trying to pull you towards them such as the Earth and the sun. There is a point away from the black hole singularity which is the point where light cannot escape once it crosses the point. It is known as the point of no return or the event horizon. They have the

Understanding Black Holes A Black hole is a theorized celestial body whose surface gravity is so strong that nothing, including light, can escape from within it's surface. Gravity is the key to a black hole's immense power. The black hole's strong gravity keeps captured material from escaping. For example, if Earth were the same mass it is now but had only one-fourth its present radius, the escape velocity of someone standing on its surface would be twice what

run out of nuclear fuel, therefore collapsing in on itself. This collapse results in a chasm in space-time with such a high density that not even light can escape its gravitational pull; this is what we call a black hole. There are three main parts of a black hole, the singularity, the event horizon, and the ergosphere. The singularity of a black hole is a place of infinite density and gravity, space-time curves boundlessly around this point and the laws of physics come to a halt. The event horizon
