Chapter 8, Problem 30PQ

A stellar black hole may form when a massive star dies. The star collapses down to a single point. Our Sun will not become a black hole because it does not have enough mass, so let us imagine a black hole with eight times the mass of the Sun. A single point has no radius, but a black hole has an effective radius known as the Schwarzschild radius. If an object gets inside the Schwarzschild radius, it never escapes. The Schwarzschild radius of an eight-solar-mass black hole is about 24 km.

a. Find the escape speed using the Schwarzschild radius.

b. Compare your answer to the speed of light and speculate on how these objects got the name “black hole.”

Part C Find the height yi from which the rock was launched. Express your answer in meters to three significant figures.                                     Learning Goal: To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 4.1 for projectile motion problems. A rock thrown with speed 12.0 m/s and launch angle 30.0 ∘ (above the horizontal) travels a horizontal distance of d = 19.0 m before hitting the ground. From what height was the rock thrown? Use the value g = 9.800 m/s2 for the free-fall acceleration.     PROBLEM-SOLVING STRATEGY 4.1 Projectile motion problems MODEL: Is it reasonable to ignore air resistance? If so, use the projectile motion model. VISUALIZE: Establish a coordinate system with the x-axis horizontal and the y-axis vertical. Define symbols and identify what the problem is trying to find. For a launch at angle θ, the initial velocity components are vix=v0cosθ and viy=v0sinθ. SOLVE: The acceleration is known: ax=0 and ay=−g. Thus, the problem becomes one of…
