Can you land on a black hole?
Can you land on a black hole?
You can’t actually survive a trip through a black hole. And if you tried to take a plunge into one, like Matthew McConaughey in the movie Interstellar, you’d be ripped apart long before you could find out what’s on the other side.
What happens if a black hole touches Earth?
The same gravitational effects that produced spaghettification would start to take effect here. The edge of the Earth closest to the black hole would feel a much stronger force than the far side. As such, the doom of the entire planet would be at hand. We would be pulled apart.
Will the Earth be swallowed up by a black hole?
A black hole with a Schwarzschild radius of about a centimeter, which would make it about the size of a coin, would have about the same mass as the Earth. The reason the Earth will be destroyed but not simply swallowed up is because the Earth will be resisting the black hole in at least two ways.
What happens to the matter that falls into a black hole?
This would be a gigantic explosion—a significant fraction of the rest of the mass of the Earth matter that actually fell into the black hole will be converted into energy. For astrophysical black holes, up to 40 percent of the rest mass of the accreted material can be emitted in radiation.
How much angular momentum would it take to make a black hole?
Trying to make a small (two Earth mass) black hole with all of the Earth’s angular momentum would mean that the surface would have to travel at about 10 9 times the speed of light.
Is the black hole a black hole?
Well, the black hole is neither black nor a hole. Instead, it is the storage of a large amount of mass in a small spherical dimension. The gravitational pull is so strong that if anything comes near the black hole, it will squeeze that object in it. The more deadly thing about the black hole is that nothing can escape out of it, not even the light.
