- What characteristics must a binary star have to be a good candidate for a black hole? Why is each of these characteristics important?arrow_forwardA stellar black hole may form when a massive star dies. The mass of the star collapses down to a single point. Imagine an astronaut orbiting a black hole having eight times the mass of the Sun. Assume the orbit is circular. a. Find the speed of the astronaut if his orbital radius is r = 1 AU. b. Find his speed if his orbital radius is r = 11.8 km. c. CHECK and THINK: Compare your answers to the speed of light in a vacuum. What would the astronauts orbital speed be if his orbital radius were smaller than 11.8 km?arrow_forwardIf a black hole itself emits no radiation, what evidence do astronomers and physicists today have that the theory of black holes is correct?arrow_forward

- Which of the following statements about black holes are true? (select all that apply) If you watch someone else fall into a black hole, you will never see him or her cross the event horizon. However, he or she will fade from view as the light he or she emits (or reflects) becomes more and more redshifted. If you fell into a black hole, you would experience time to be running normally as you plunged rapidly across the event horizon. If we watch a clock fall toward a black hole you will see it tick slower and slower as it falls nearer to the event horizon. If the Sun magically disappeared and was replaced by a black hole of the same mass, Earth would soon be sucked into the black hole.arrow_forwardA Black Hole gets its name because it is the remains of a massive black star. True Falsearrow_forwardAn AGN hosts a central Black Hole of mass 2×1038×1038 kg. The AGN emits at 1/51/5 of the Eddington limit. Find the luminosity of the AGN. Give your answer in Watts to 3 significant figures.arrow_forward
