So a spinning black hole should not lose its event horizon no matter how fast it spins? https://astroengine.com/2009/08/09/the-naked-singularity-recipe-spin-a-black-hole-add-mass/ Is this article wrong?

Why does angular momentum need to be conserved? Centrifugal force is fictitious force when means its not mediated by a particle. If an object is floating a in circular space station in a vacuum and the space station is spinning creating a centrifugal pulling everything down at 9.8 m/s^2, but the...

For example let's a satellite was orbiting the moon which has no atmosphere. If the moon suddenly started spinning twice as fast would it effect the satellite's orbit even though the satellite is separated by the vacuum of space from the moon? Easier way to put it, if the Earth suddenly spun...

I am not asking the question as to whether or not time is real, I am asking the question as to whether or not time flows as in does physics favor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternalism_(philosophy_of_time) OR https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophical_presentism OR...

I know this is a little late, but I just found out marcus died, when I tried to PM him for a clearer answer. Probably the among greatest loss to this forums. May your spirit travel with the neutrinos for all of time.

So is it safe to say there is no hierarchy problem, other than the human mind's feelings of unnaturalness?

It feels like something is wrong because we think the discrepancy too large and unnatural to the human mind? Or is something mathematics and scientifically wrong?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchy_problem I understand that hierarchy problem is the large discrepancy between aspects of the weak force and gravity. But why? Why is the explanation, that gravity is simply a much weaker force not acceptable? Is it possible that gravity is just an...

That is a calculation for the total bet. If you were to bet $2 and you hit craps you get $6 in net profit plus half your original bet back for 3:1 on $2 and a total revenue of $7. If you were to bet $2 and 11 (yo) came you would get 7:1 on $2 for $14 of net profit but you would only get back $1...

Does that include the fact you lose half your bet on C or E when you win? I was under the impression that the calculations out there did not include this fact, I am not sure though

That table is wrong for example it says Any Seven 5 to 1 is should say 5 for 1 in other words 4 to 1 so replace the to with for

That's true odds and its 17:1 not 16:1 and 8:1. True Odds for Craps (1-1, 1-2, 2-1, 6-6) is 8:1 payout is only 7:1 True Odds for 11 (5-6, 6-5) is 17:1 payout is only 15:1 However, if you bet C and E you are betting both, so you are only paid 15:1 or 7:1 (depending on 11 or craps) on half your...

Thanks, just to confirm Wikipedia's article on Craps (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craps#Bet_odds_and_summary) says 11.11% this is wrong correct this actual number should be 13.8%? Wait you have six combinations (1-1, 1-2, 2-1, 6-6, 5-6, 6-5,) so its 6/36 I think, but the thing is you lose...

Not sure if anyone plays craps here, but I think one of the probabilities is wrong.The C and E bet which is a single roll on craps (2,3,12, four total possible combinations for 2 dice which has 36 total possible combinations) or on 11 (yo) which has two combinations for a total of six...

More specifically I was wondering if a planet with say a 1 to 20 time dilation ratio (1 to 20 hours) could exist outside of the event horizon of a black hole and be habitable, or does time dilation not occur until you enter the event horizon
