HOME INTRODUCTION TASK PROCESS RESOURCES EVALUATION CONCLUSION

Its your job to teach your classmates about what's a Black Hole. In order to complete your job and teach your classmates about Black Holes you will have to follow this steps below:

1)Students will choose a team of two to three  people.

2)Once you have your team together go to http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/user/gr/public/bh_intro.html and research information about what's a Black Holes.

3)Once you gather all your information you can now compare your answers with the Black Hole's Questions & Answers Below.

4)In order to complete this project you will have to create a Black Hole or a Spinner.

Questions & Answers  
1.How
are black hole made? Astronomers believe a black hole forms when a super massive object – a dying giant star – collapses in on itself to form a very small point of infinite gravity.

2.How big black holes are? The diameter of the  event horizon depends on the mass of the object that formed it.

3.What is a white hole? A white hole is the opposite of a black hole, and is entertained more in science fiction than in actual science journals. Some believe it is the "other side" of a black hole. It is theorized to spew matter and energy out. A flaw in this theory, as many scientists have noted, is that the matter ejected from the white hole would accumulate in the vicinity of the hole, and then collapse upon it self, forming a black hole.

4.What is a black hole? An object with a velocity greater than the speed of light.

5.How do black holes rotate? Centrifugal force makes horizon bulge out at equator. Singularity is not a point but a ring.

6.How do black holes evaporate? Quantum fluctuations can create particle pairs for short times, matter and antimatter.
