GRAVITATIONAL ENERGY Let’s Remove Some Limitations
EG = MGH What are the limits of this equation? Height – we need a reference point that can’t vary g – Must be constant so it only works for a few hundred km
IN A GRAVITATIONAL FIELD… Work needs to be done to raise an object in a gravitational field This work is equivalent to the amount of gravitational energy gained Remember: Work against gravity required a force equivalent to the force of gravity to be applied W=Fg∆d = mg ∆y
DERIVE
GEOMETRIC AVERAGES We are going to use a geometric average as opposed to a regular average to achieve a more accurate average value for our inverse parabola Let’s take a look at what these values looks like

ESCAPE ENERGY
ESCAPE SPEED Minimum speed required to project mass (m) from surface of mass (M) to just escape gravitational force of M
BINDING ENERGY - Additional kinetic energy required by mass (m) to escape gravitational attraction of mass (M) - If you have binding energy, there is no escape from the gravity well
MECHANICAL ENERGY STILL HOLDS EM = E g + E k
EXAMPLE A) How much energy do you need to escape Earth’s gravitational field? B) How about to just a distance 4 re away? C) If an object was orbiting 4 re away from the Earth, what additional energy would it need to escape?

CONCEPT: BLACK HOLES
WHAT IS A BLACK HOLE? We call it a singularity, an extremely dense, extremely heavy, extremely small bit of mass Since it is so heavy, the force of gravity is MASSIVE
COMMON BLACK HOLES Primordial Black Hole - Size of an atom, mass of a mountain - Formed in the early universe
COMMON BLACK HOLES Stellar Black Hole - 20 times the mass of the sun, diameter of 10 miles - May be dozens of these black holes in the milky way - Formed during a super nova
COMMON BLACK HOLES Super Massive Black Holes Typically, a million times the mass of the sun, radius about the size of the solar system
SUPER MASSIVE BLACK HOLE In the Milky Way, - Called Sagittarius A - Mass equal to 4. 3 million suns and would fit inside a ball the size of the sun
Class Supermassive black hole Mass Size ~105– 1010 MSun ~0. 001– 400 AU Intermediate-mass black hole ~103 MSun ~103 km ≈ REarth Stellar black hole ~10 MSun ~30 km Micro black hole up to ~MMoon up to ~0. 1 mm
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF YOU WERE ON THE SURFACE OF THE SINGULARITY AND YOU TURNED ON A LIGHT?
THE GRAVITY WOULD BE SO STRONG, IT WOULD PULL LIGHT BACK IN!
Event Horizon
THE EVENT HORIZON The line at which no light can escape from a black hole No event can be seen within because no light escapes! Since no light escapes, everything inside looks black (no light), therefore, a black hole
CONCEPT: DEATH BY BLACK HOLE
WHEN YOU FALL INTO THE BLACK HOLE Due to a difference in gravity between your head and feet, your feet fall faster than your head This is true on Earth but the force doesn’t differ much At a point, you’ll snap into two pieces as you fall
YOU WILL SURVIVE THE SNAP! (Until you bleed to death) The remaining halves with continue to snap in half This will continue until you are a stream of atoms that is travelling downwards
NOT THE WORST! As you stretch, you will also be squeezed (consider it spaghettification)
As space clouds (dust and gas) move towards the centre of the black hole, they tend to spiral inwards (like a toilet) As they do, the parts closer to the BH, spiral quicker than the parts furthur away This creates friction and heats the clouds to millions of degrees and they become a source for x-rays and ultraviolet
X RAY PICTURE OF BLACK HOLE
BLACK HOLES AND ESCAPE SPEED - A black hole is black because light cannot escape it’s gravitational pull - It’s very small and very dense with an immense gravitational field - Since light cannot escape, the speed of light is less than the escape speed
EVENT HORIZON The radius of black hole from which no event can be seen inside due to light’s inability to escape the gravitational field of the singularity The Schwartzchild radius is the radius of the event horizon Let’s calculate the Schwartzchild radius!!!!
EXAMPLE Let’s say a star 100 x the mass of the Sun dies and forms a black hole. What would the Schwartzchild radius be?
