Can intense gravity stop atomic motion ?

AI Thread Summary
Intense gravity, such as that found in black holes, raises questions about the behavior of atomic motion and the fate of kinetic energy. The discussion highlights uncertainty regarding whether atomic motion can be halted and where the energy would go if it could. It suggests that while theories exist, definitive answers remain elusive due to the inability to observe black holes directly. The conversation also touches on the idea that energy cannot simply vanish, implying that it must be transformed or redirected in some way. Overall, the complexities of gravity's effects on atomic structures and energy conservation are not fully understood.

can intense gravity like this in black holes stop atomic motion/jiggling ?
if it does , where does the kinetic energy go ? does it radiate before entering a black hole ?

The thing is we don't know.Surely the atomic structure if there even is one anymore is way way different than in ordinary conditions.

Actually I could say pretty much anything , like that Julius Caesar lives in one of them because you cannot prove me wrong as you cannot look into one , nor is anyone of those ever achieved here on Earth and studied up close.
The thing is we have theories , and good guesses nothing more on this one.
If you ask me personally , I think there has to be motion , energy cannot just disappear in thin air it has to go somewhere and do something , anything beyond that is poetry.

P.S. Surely the stuff before the event horizon and the radiation that the BH spills as it evaporates is in motion , what is in between I don't know.

makes a lot of sense, but arent there any theories about it ?
 
Time dilation due to gravity does not steal energy. In the frame of reference of whatever object you are talking about, it is never time dilated and its energy remains constant.
 
The rope is tied into the person (the load of 200 pounds) and the rope goes up from the person to a fixed pulley and back down to his hands. He hauls the rope to suspend himself in the air. What is the mechanical advantage of the system? The person will indeed only have to lift half of his body weight (roughly 100 pounds) because he now lessened the load by that same amount. This APPEARS to be a 2:1 because he can hold himself with half the force, but my question is: is that mechanical...
Hello everyone, Consider the problem in which a car is told to travel at 30 km/h for L kilometers and then at 60 km/h for another L kilometers. Next, you are asked to determine the average speed. My question is: although we know that the average speed in this case is the harmonic mean of the two speeds, is it also possible to state that the average speed over this 2L-kilometer stretch can be obtained as a weighted average of the two speeds? Best regards, DaTario
Some physics textbook writer told me that Newton's first law applies only on bodies that feel no interactions at all. He said that if a body is on rest or moves in constant velocity, there is no external force acting on it. But I have heard another form of the law that says the net force acting on a body must be zero. This means there is interactions involved after all. So which one is correct?
