    Black holes Holes
AI Thread Summary
The discussion explores the theoretical possibility of using small black holes as energy sources by creating them in particle accelerators and placing them within charged cells. It suggests that surrounding masses could prevent black holes from reaching maximum acceleration, allowing them to emit photons. The idea hinges on the assumption that the number of photons emitted is proportional to the black hole's surface area. Participants debate the feasibility of harnessing emitted X-rays from matter consumed by black holes. The conversation raises questions about the energy dynamics of black holes influenced by gravity.

I thought if you could create small black holes in particle accelerators, is it possible to charge them and put them in charged cells in a sphere. In the middle of the sphere you put radioactive material that emit neutrons. My theory is that the black hole can never have maximum acceleration as long as there are masses around them, and therefore they can emit photons. if they would emit photones and "eat" neutrones so that they have constant mass, could they be used as an energy source or is it allready impossible to create the sphere?

I am counting on that the number of photons the black hole emit per second is proportional with the surface area of the black hole and not its volume.

That post is mostly gibberish, but in theory a black hole could be used as a power source: Throw matter into it and it emits x-rays. Harness the X-rays.
 
Even if the matter you throw in is a black hole?

Why should a black hole not be able to emit energy under the influence of gravity? Can you explain in words how that is?

Thread 'How can I find the cleanout for my building drain?'
I am a long distance truck driver, but I recently completed a plumbing program with Stratford Career Institute. In the chapter of my textbook Repairing DWV Systems, the author says that if there is a clog in the building drain, one can clear out the clog by using a snake augur or maybe some other type of tool into the cleanout for the building drain. The author said that the cleanout for the building drain is usually near the stack. I live in a duplex townhouse. Just out of curiosity, I...
Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...
