Graduate Question on how stars are located
Wow, so if it was not impossible, we could theoretically need a whole new set of laws of physics. Thats crazy. So even information cannot escape? What would you define as information?- jackcr

Graduate Question on how stars are located
I heard that at the bottom of the black hole there is only light, what would the light look like? Would it just be like light say from a bulb?- jackcr

Graduate Question on how stars are located
Just a thought - does the universe have the equal of a refractive index so to speak, to measure where stars are, due to gravity curving spacetime. thanks- jackcr

Geometric series - positive and negative ratio
Hello, Second term of a geometric series is 48 and the fourth term is 3... Show that one possible value for the common ratio, r, of the series is -1/4 and state the other value. ar=48, ar^3= 3... so ar^3/ar=3/48 which simplifies to r^2 = 1/16, therefore r = 1/4 Can anyone explain where...- jackcr
