    A Question Regarding Black Holes

    Wow, thanks a lot for the very analytic reply. I have never seen this equation before, but to be fair i am new to relativistic mechanics. I'll definitely read these articles too.

    A Question Regarding Black Holes

    I am glad you can make sense of my post. I did some research in the forums but also in the internet, sadly i couldn't find any older post asking the same question, but i certainly found lots of interesting information about black holes. I was thinking that the singularity was a point, because...

    A Question Regarding Black Holes

    Thanks for the quick reply, i really appreciate it! If they do not collapse down to a point, then what stops the collapse after it has begun? So the singularity of a black hole actually has a radius? And since it's got a radius, does that mean it's density is not infinite? I have heard too many...

    A Question Regarding Black Holes

    Hello people, I have a question regarding black holes. The way i understand it, black holes form in supernovas, and they occur because the gravitational pull of the stellar remnant is so great that nothing can stop it, and it basically collapses down to a singe point, virtually nothing... Now...

    How do two springs act as a simple harmonic oscillator in a spring-mass system?

    Interesting thought. If the net force is zero then i can find, by equating the two spring forces the different extents. So, at the meeting point: ∑F=0 ⇔ F1=F2 ⇔ k1Δl1=k2Δl2. But we already know from my equation that: k1Δl1=mg. So we got those two equations now. We can also say that the total...

    How do two springs act as a simple harmonic oscillator in a spring-mass system?

    Hello forum. Panhellenic exams begin in less than 10 days and stress is slowly but steadily been overtaking me these last few months. I've been solving problems out of a physics book, and i got stuck in one which involves mechanical oscillations (spring-mass system). 1. Homework Statement A...

    Mike's Path to University: Struggling with National Exams at 18

    Moving is not an option, it takes way too much money. Other than that, thanks for the tips on the revision, but it is quite a challenge to make things fun an interesting when half the lessons i am giving have nothing to do with physics or what i want to become. And again, thanks for the reply...

    Mike's Path to University: Struggling with National Exams at 18

    Hello everyone, my name is Mike, and i am 18 years old. In a month from now, i am going to be giving the national exams my country does to qualify for a university. Unfortunately, there is no idea to know in which university i'll pass, if i pass at all. These exams are known to be difficult...

    Equilibrium and torque problem

    Hello guys. I attempted a solution to this problem as well, because it looked interesting since i am giving exams. I got a different result than you folks though. Here is my solution: EDIT #3: I shouldn't be doing this late at night. Here is my final attempt. Not sure if right or wrong, but...

    An Interesting Complex Number Problem

    Thanks for the reply, mfb. I did the first step and solved the complex equation, and the points that satisfy it belong in a circle with center K(2,0) and radius r=1. Unfortunately that was the easy part. The inequality is not in the real numbers but in the complex number system. V a0, a1 and a2...

    An Interesting Complex Number Problem

    Hey all. I am giving Panhellenic exams this year, and part of my preparation comes from solving previous' years questions. This problem was a complex number based one, in the 2013 Panhellenic exams. It goes as follows: Consider 3 complex numbers, α0,α1 and α2 which belong in the line given by...

    My Fault Experiment: Hot Water & Earth's Crust

    Ok, so today i made a new very simple model and i'd like just to discuss it with you all. Ive put a broken brick (x, y, z: 10, 2.5, 4 Splited up to 5, 2.5 and 5 (cm)) together in a marked with walls (20cm x 20cm x 5cm) area. The bricks were representing the Earth's crust. I've then brought a...
