The inertia of matter does not change in a black hole; however, the effects of extreme gravitational forces alter the perception of inertia from an external observer's perspective. Inertia, defined by Newton's laws, remains constant regardless of the environment. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding the relativistic effects near a black hole, particularly the influence of gravity on time and space. Participants encourage careful translation of complex physics concepts for clarity.
PREREQUISITESStudents of physics, astrophysicists, and anyone interested in the fundamental principles of black hole mechanics and the nature of inertia under extreme conditions.
What do you think and why?Carlos Torres said:Hi everyone, I was in physics class and the professor asked if the inertia of matter changes in a black hole and I would like to know if anyone has the answer to this question.
