I just want your guys opinion on my idea against E=mc

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a young user's idea about black holes and the behavior of photons near the event horizon, questioning if photons could remain still or be pulled in, potentially contradicting E=mc². Respondents emphasize that the user's understanding of black holes and general relativity is flawed and recommend starting with basic Newtonian physics before tackling more complex concepts. They stress the importance of grasping foundational principles in physics to properly engage with advanced theories. The conversation encourages learning and clarifies misconceptions about the nature of light and gravity in relation to black holes. Overall, the thread highlights the necessity of a solid grounding in physics for meaningful discussions on such topics.

so i had this idea for a while now,
if you would take a black hole, and put a laser next to the event horizon, facing away from the black hole, the gravity from the black hole would pull the photons in right? I was thinking that the force that it takes must be bigger than the power from the photons which are trying to get away, right? My question is if the photons would remain still, or get pulled into the black hole, which is against Einsteins E=mc2, cause the photons would exceed the speed of light right?

p.s. Pleaso no hate on my bad english, i am just 14 and from the Dutch, so yeah

Hi siebe22, welcome to PF. Your English is great, you don't need to worry about that at all. However, your understanding of black holes is all wrong.

I would strongly recommend that you start with standard Newtonian physics before jumping into general relativity. This is a great place to help learn, but we can't miraculously help you skip all of the basics and jump right into advanced physics.

Thread 'The Physics of unloading sand from a barge'

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
