so i was thinking about black wholes an how black they are sicne ther so black they cant show a reflexion but since we live in a 3d world i came to the conclusion its not a whole but a sphere an then that there debunts one guys theory of rideing the edge of a black whole an how u wont get sucked in so i was woundering is there any thruth to me thinking its sphere a black ball an not a blackhole

Dude, I don't know what your teachers have been teaching you, but you have got the whole idea upside down! Black holes are stars that have exploded and crushed themselves because of their own weight. Why they are black is because their gravity is so powerful that in their direct vincity nothing can escape it. How did we find it then? you may ask. Well, using Eintein's formula, we could finally realize that those planets being sucked around nothing were actually being sucked around a black hole. That explained a lot of things in the universe but made even more quesions. One of the things it explained was what was in the middle of a galaxy, a super massive black hole! I hope that answered your question. smile.gif Please nobody else post on here though, it's not worth it. sad.gif

And about it being a sphere, it is not! What "that guy on TV" was demonsrating(Not real obviously) was that you can ride on the edge of a black hole and not get sucked in because it's gravitational field doesn't reach that far. blink.gif YEs I understand it is hard for you to comprehend that, but you can take it to the bank.

dont tell poeple not to post -.- it doesnt help me an whart u said doesnt anser my question i know it ued to a star

im woundeing if the gravity pulls 360 degrees around witch would then let me know if it was a sphere i know its round but if its a sphere then not matter what way side im on it will look round

and does the gravity still keep the stars rotation? since it so black u cant realy see it rotate thank u

This site has a spell checker.

Use it.

no thank you its not illigal to text type everything does not have to be perfect an i rather not try to be so

Spell check or go away.

It is indeed illegal. It is against the law of spelling and grammar. The punishment is: no-one will listen to you.

Congratulations. You have more than succeeded in not being perfect. You don't even approach adequate.

i think all you guys who bash on me for asking questions an misspelled words have been raised very wrong or used to get picked on in school so u feel obligated to try and do what has been done to you in child hood to other poeple who you will never physically face in this world so you feel like your ego is being healed even tho it is all in your mind. walkers an talkers is what I'm trying to say so even tho you feel big an bad because u use proper grammer an spell your words perfectly
im not saying you realy are a pushover who got walked all over im just saying there is no need to point out every mistake because realy it doesnt help any one and it does bother me personally that you would hate on me for such little problems when all im trying to do is ask some questions to some smarter poeple then I so i may understand it more directly. i post opinions an yes i post questions im the student to all of you an your sopposed be like my teacher when i have a question because there is things that i know that you dont know an if you ever asked i would be obligated to answer an i would do it nicely an nicely is not an obligation that is just who i am. I am truly sorry for mispelling but life is short so i dont even realy think about the grammer there is one of my flaws and flaws are what make poeple diffrent from others an i would like not to conform to the ideals that we all need to do things a certain way.

so i apoligize for futuremisspelled words an opinions that may bother you and im sorry for asking questions that i would like anwers without the comments of how stupid i am for asking questions or mispelled words so plz respect me so i can have respect for you thank you wink.gif

Well... the problem is that you don't want to learn.

What is wrong with learning to spell and be understood?

Kid, that was just painful to read.

You're not texting on your iphone here.

Dude, it is the gravity field that goes 360 degrees or did you not get that fom my previous 2 posts? huh.gif The gravititaional field is a sphere. The black hole is like a funnel. And Alexg, like i've said before, DO NOT PICK ON THE UNDERDOG. mad.gif Or are you too dumb to get that?

If you don't want to be 'picked on', learn some physics.

Try actually studying it before you post and make a fool of yourself.

Throughout high school I was 6' tall and 190-210lbs. I took two different martial arts during that time, and competed in several tournaments until I was barred from competing due to a conviction for aggravated assault. I hung out mostly with the freaks and nerds, however since there wasn't a big martial arts community in high school, and while there were bullies around, most of them only messed with me once, and the rest were smart enough not to mess with me at all.


Yet for all of that, I still think you're a retard who hasn't got enough common sense to figure out that coherent writing can come in handy some times. I also think you're a complete ignoramus when it comes to physics and likely a whole shitload of other subjects as well.
You got a question you want answered? Type it out with the best spelling and grammar you can muster, and insert a little humility just to be on the safe side, jackass.

P.S. Don't whine about not being able to spell, either. There's a spell checker, dumbass.

We know they're not a sphere, because we know they're rotating very fast.

I've recommended the online course "Physics for Future Presidents" before. It's really good, it presents physics for the layman.

You might want to watch the lecture sessions on "Universe" (page 2)
