- If the Sun were to collapse into a black hole, the point of no return for an investigator would be approximately 3 km from the center singularity. Would the investingator be able to survive visiting even 300 km from the center? Answer this by finding the difference in the gravitatoinal attraction the black holes exerts on a 1.0-kg mass at the head and at the feet of the investigator.arrow_forwardThe typical core-collapse supernova has an energy budget of about 1046 J. This energy comes from the gravitational potential energy of an inner core with mass Mic, which collapses from an initial radius of 5 x 106 m down to the final radius of 50 km. Estimate Mic, in solar masses, for this to be a realistic energy source of the core-collapse supernova. You may assume that the density before the collapse is uniform.

- Analysis of the spectrum of a solar–mass star shows a periodic back-and-forth shift of its spectral lines with a period of 3 days. A spectral line centred at wavelength λ0 = 500 nm shows a shift ∆λ = ±2.5 × 10−4 nm.

This produces a steadyconcentration of C14 in the atmosphere once the decay rate of the C14 back intoN14 matches the conversion rate from the cosmic ray flux (which is assumedto be constant for reasons you can ask me about if you want) a) What kind of radiation (what kind of particle) does the C14 emit when it decays? Tellme how you know?b) The concentration of C14 in plants (and animals) comes into equilibrium with the at-mosphere because living things use the ambient carbon to make their cellular structures.However, once a plant dies, it no longer consumes C14. The C14 starts to decay away—allowing us to calculate when the plant died because the C14/C12 ratio doesn’t match theatmosphere.
