If you were to enter a black hole, from your perspective time would seem to go on as normal, but looking out you would see the universe in fast forward, and soon enough your body would be stretched out into a long thin strip.
A star is a considered a pulsar whenever it is rotating at extremly high speeds, even up to around 1000 revolutions or pulses of radio waves a second. It looks like it is pulsing because of the beams of light from the star rotating around and hitting us everytime we are in view.

As hydrogen and helium are falling into a neutron star they build up and become extremely compact. Eventually, they become so compact that thermonuclear fuison occurs and causes the huge burst.

I couldn't tell you the exact measurement, but generally, pretty close. For example, if our sun suddenly collapsed to a black hole earth would't be close enough to be affected.
If you were observing an object falling into a black hole, the object would seem to just freeze since time to that object would be so much different than time for you. Eventually light would no longer be able to escape and the object would seem to just disappear.
Not yet, because the closest known black hole to us is over a thousand light years away, so even if we were able to send an object at the speed of light it would still be a while before it would be able to reach one.
Is it relatively easy or difficult to enter a black hole? Why?
ReplyDeleteIt is more difficult than some people may think. Black holes don't suck, so they don't simply go around the universe devouring everything near them.
DeleteWho would one find themselves in a black hole? What would it be like inside of one?

DeleteWith the matter that falls toward the neutron star that's very hot, why do you only get a burst of xray radiation for only 1 second?

DeleteHow close would something have to be to a black hole to fall down?
ReplyDeleteI couldn't tell you the exact measurement, but generally, pretty close. For example, if our sun suddenly collapsed to a black hole earth would't be close enough to be affected.
DeleteTo someone outside a black hole, how would the motion of an object approaching a black hole appear to change?
ReplyDeleteIf you were observing an object falling into a black hole, the object would seem to just freeze since time to that object would be so much different than time for you. Eventually light would no longer be able to escape and the object would seem to just disappear.
DeleteHow long does it take for a white dwarf to completely cool off and become black?
ReplyDeleteIt takes over 14 billion years for a White Dwarf to cool completely and become black.
DeleteHow long until our own sun becomes a white dwarf?
ReplyDeleteOur Sun will become a White Dwarf in about 5 billion years.
DeleteHave we ever sent anything into a black hole?
ReplyDeleteNot yet, because the closest known black hole to us is over a thousand light years away, so even if we were able to send an object at the speed of light it would still be a while before it would be able to reach one.

DeleteIt takes over 14 billion years for a White Dwarf to become black. When White Dwarfs become black they then would be referred to as a Black Dwarf.
