Singularity

Singularity

  • if you take pressure out of the calculation,a uniform spherically symmetric star would contract to a single point of infinite density,I.e,Singularity.
  • A singularity is what you end up with when a giant star is compressed to an unimaginably small point.
  • It refers not only to the end of a star but also to a far more fundamental idea about the starting-point for the formation of the entire universe.
  • All our theories of space are formulated on the assumption that space-time is smooth and nearly flat,so they break down at the singularity.In fact, the singularity marks the end of time itself.

Properties

  • With no light escaping from the black hole, there is no way that anyone watching from a distance could actually witness your descent. In space, no one can hear you scream; and in a black hole, no one can see you disappear.

Einstein‘s View

  1. It was already clear that a uniform spherical star would contract to a point of infinite density, a singularity.
  2. Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity says that objects distort the space-time around them.
  3. At this point of infinite density, one can’t predict the future, whic...

What is a Black hole ?

What is a Black hole ?

Black holes cannot be seen as they don't reflect any light.

The centre of black hole is called singularity - a point of infinite density i.e the space curvature extends to infinity.

Formation of Black holes

Formation of Black holes

  • During most of the life of a normal star, over many billions of years, it will support itself against its own gravity by thermal pressure, caused by nuclear processes which convert hydrogen into helium.
  • The explosive force of nuclear fusion inside them creates outward pressure which ...

Information

  • All the black hole will remember is the total mass, the state of rotation and the electric charge.
  • A black hole has a boundary, called the event horizon. This is where gravity is just strong enough to drag light back and prevent it escaping.
  • Because nothing can travel faster...

Can‘t see , but how do we know their existence

Can‘t see , but how do we know their existence

  • But scientists know they exist because they rip apart stars that get too close to them and because they can send tremors through space.
  • It was a collision between two black holes more than a billion years ago that triggered what are called ‘gravitational waves’.

Black Holes: The Dark Stars

Black Holes: The Dark Stars

A black hole is, like the name itself, a point of singularity and infinite density, which remains invisible, much like the event horizon, which is the surface.

A black hole, from a distance, carries the same properties of mass and gravity like a star would...

So Why Isn’t Our Sun Currently Not Collapsing?

So Why Isn’t Our Sun Currently Not Collapsing?

  • Stars supports itself against its own gravity through the creation of thermal pressure.
  • Inside every star, a huge amount of energy is being generated through nuclear reactions (fusion) which convert hydrogen into helium.
  • Eventually, a star ...

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and happier.

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.
