What are the equations that shows that time slows down as you near a black hole? I'm trying to prove to a non-believer that the math is there and shows this. Thanks!

Black hole equations are mathematical formulas used to describe the behavior and properties of black holes. They are calculated using principles from Einstein's theory of general relativity.
No, black hole equations are highly complex and cannot be solved analytically. They require sophisticated computational techniques and numerical methods to approximate solutions.
The event horizon is a key concept in black hole equations. It is the boundary surrounding a black hole from which nothing, including light, can escape. The equations describe the properties of the event horizon, such as its size and shape.
The Schwarzschild radius is the distance from the center of a black hole at which the event horizon is located. It is calculated using the mass of the black hole and the speed of light. The formula is 2GM/c^2, where G is the gravitational constant and c is the speed of light.
Yes, black hole equations can be applied to a wide range of astronomical objects, including neutron stars and galaxies. They can also be used to study the effects of gravity on space and time in the presence of massive objects.
