    Can photons change direction or slow down near a black hole?

    Ok what I attempted to post were hypothetical situations. I'll try to rephrase. For question 1: If I hypothetically was not moving within the even horizon -- somehow I could see but had no mass/energy -- why would the speed of the light that I observed not be 0? For question 2: Scenario...

    Can photons change direction or slow down near a black hole?

    Hopefully you all can understand how I could get confused about a topic such as this. Question 1. If I was observing the speed of light at the event horizon of a black hole, and wasn't moving myself, if the light was not moving to an outside observer (wasn't escaping the black hole), it...

    Can photons change direction or slow down near a black hole?

    So using e=mc^2 is the c based on the local speed of light? If something had a certain mass and hypothetically was right next to a black hole, would the energy of that object be 0 if the speed of light in that area was 0?

    Can photons change direction or slow down near a black hole?

    In a black hole, since light cannot escape are the photons slowed down or changed in direction?

    Does the location of an electron in a hydrogen atom depend on temperature?

    Ok if a raindrop had greater temperature than another raindrop would the electrons of the first, on average, be farther from the nucleus than the electrons of the second?

    Does the location of an electron in a hydrogen atom depend on temperature?

    Can you answer my question though about if the temperature was 0 K, would an electron would remain at a fixed distance from the nucleus?

    Does the location of an electron in a hydrogen atom depend on temperature?

    If you looked at a picture of where an electron would be likely to be found in a hydrogen atom, would the electron picture look the same regardless of temperature? Edit: would the electron have a definite distance from the nucleus at 0 K and not just a likely place to be found?
