Okay, Now I can answer all of these d) both equally matter Angular Velocity of Stars around the SMBH The minimum mass for a BH is 3 Solar masses, it is so much greater it is insane being 100 Billion solar masses Same reason as why it didn't become a large BH The Energy-mass of a SMBH is so much greater that individual stars being 4.1 Million Solar masses our galaxy's SMBH, Sgr A.

Strange Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Density is only indirectly relevant because (Newtonian) gravity depends on mass and distance. And in GR it may be indirectly related to pressure. But density itself doesn't appear in either theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I would say, that it's the MASS and SIZE, which equally matter - density is combination of both. I don't want to scare you, but this already makes us pseudo-scientists, as according to current knowledge, size of the source affects the gravity only by changing the distance from the center of mass (towards which the magnitude of gravity is growing) Quote The minimum mass for a BH is 3 Solar masses, it is so much greater it is insane being 100 Billion solar masses But what, if there's a nebula with a total mass of 10 Suns? Will it turn into BH? Because, according to the current knowledge, BH is created when critical mass of a body is reached - and there's nothing about the density...http://abyss.uoregon.edu/~js/ast122/lectures/lec21.html Official science tells, that all objects with mass create g. fields, in which magnitude of gravity depends only on the mass of source. According to current knowledge 2 spherical objects with 1kg of mass will create equally strong gravity - no matter, if one object is made of steel and the second is made of styro-foam... Does it looks correct for you? For me doesn't... I would say, that 1kg steel ball should create stronger gravity, than the styro-foam ball.

Yes - plasma has most likely smaller density, than air inside the microwave owen That's why - plasma wants to move towards an area, where density of air is smaller But - there's no such place within the owen (except the area, where plasma is located - but since plasma can't move to the inside of itself, you can simply ignore this fact) So - plasma is deeply confused, as it doesn't even know about such reality, as "outside of owen", not to mention about something, like atmosphere or it's hypothetical density So What happens with plasma, if the owen would be placed on ISS? a) it flows in random directions, looking for somekind of "outer space" (like someone during an attack of claustrophobia) b) it flows freely inside the owen (like Tinker Bell fairy) c) it places itself in the exact center of air mass, inside the owen (like a Shaolin monk) d) explodes / implodes / teleports itself / annihilates time / collapses reality / create a black hole or wormhole / start to produce anti-matter / guess by yourself e) makes something completely logical, but I still don't know, what might it be Personally, I would choose the option b) but if I'm wrong, then correct me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why say anti gravity, if you created a BH above you as you were falling towards the sun, you may fall towards the BH not the sun. This would not be antigravity. Alternatively if dark energy can accelerate galaxies apart, it could be maybe possibly be described as anti gravity. What is your Plasma made up from in your microwave, is it ionized hot air particles which are less dense than the surrounding air and would float. Or are you talking quarks and gluons, what is the make up of your plasma. I guess from the picture your plasma is giving off photons as electrons recombine with atoms. The focus of the microwave energy on the hot air in the microwave will more likely localize the ionization effect.

Without gravity there won't be no direction... We can agree, that the force of such anti-gravity, is created by the buoyancy of plasma, inside the owen - as energetic particles want to move out from this medium, but gravity gives the direction of force (against). However, if this upward oriented force will become strong enough (what can be possibly done by adding more plasma into the owen, or by further increasing it's energy), it will most likely fly stright into space - no matter, if there will be some atmosphere around it, or not... So, is it actually an effect of buoyancy, if upward motion of owen won't be connected with the density of medium? Quote Because only the mass matters. Not the density. Then why nebulas create much weaker g. fields, than solid celestial bodies? Why it's the interstellar gas, which is being attracted by planets and stars - even if the total mass of such gas cloud can be higher, than the mass of a solid body - and not the other way (planets attracted by gas clouds)?

Quote It doesn't say anything about density being relevant to gravity. https://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/GRACE/page2.php Yeah, it's quite easy to miss the right fragments in such a long text (actually, it isn't - but let's say it is...). So maybe I will copy and paste it here - just in case, if someone suffers to some extreme case of ADHD and can't focus for 3 minutes to read a single page or writing... First one: "We can think of gravity as the invisible force that pulls two masses together. When we speak of mass, we’re talking about the amount of matter in a substance. Density is a measure of how much mass is concentrated in a given space. Sir Isaac Newton discovered that as an object’s mass increases, the gravitational attraction of that object increases. For example, a container filled with a more dense material like granite rock has more mass and thus more gravitational attraction than that same container filled with water. The Earth’s Moon has considerably less mass than the Earth itself. Not only is the Moon smaller than the Earth, but it is only about 60 percent as dense as Earth. Thus, the gravitational attraction on the Moon is much less than it is here on Earth, and a person weighs less on the Moon. This weaker gravity is why we have the famous images of the Apollo astronauts taking “one giant leap for mankind” on the Moon’s surface." Second one: "This famous photograph of an astronaut taking a “giant leap for mankind” demonstrates the effect of the moon’s lower gravity on a person’s weight. Because the moon is smaller than the Earth and about 60 percent as dense, the astronaut’s weight is only about one-sixth of what it would be on Earth. Although they are not as dramatic as the Earth-moon difference, slight variations in the mass and density across the Earth’s surface do create differences in Earth’s gravity field." Of course, they didn't say it directly, but it should be clear from those two fragments, that density of matter in a source has a GREAT importance for the force of gravity and properties of a g. field. Telling such heresies openly, is most likely strictly forbidden in the scientific society - as it threatens the dogma of Einstein's omniscience and absolute perfection of his GR Theory... But somene, who can read between the letters just a bit, should easily notice, that they mentioned about the density with some purpose... to be continued...

We can observe objects orbiting a black hole (this provides some of the best evidence for the existence of black holes). We cannot observe anything that falls into a black hole (passes through the event horizon) because no information can leave the black hole. 9 minutes ago, Unified Field said: If you say, that it's because the radius of a black hole is smaller and there's closer distance to the center of mass - wouldn't it mean that light was trapped as well in the center of this star?

If density of an object doesn't matter for the gravitational fields, then why a black hole creates much stronger gravity, than the star, which became it's source (even if we assume, that there was no loss of material during the process)? It doesn't. 27 minutes ago, Unified Field said: First one: "We can think of gravity as the invisible force that pulls two masses together. When we speak of mass, we’re talking about the amount of matter in a substance. Density is a measure of how much mass is concentrated in a given space. Sir Isaac Newton discovered that as an object’s mass increases, the gravitational attraction of that object increases. For example, a container filled with a more dense material like granite rock has more mass and thus more gravitational attraction than that same container filled with water. The Earth’s Moon has considerably less mass than the Earth itself. Not only is the Moon smaller than the Earth, but it is only about 60 percent as dense as Earth. Thus, the gravitational attraction on the Moon is much less than it is here on Earth, and a person weighs less on the Moon. This weaker gravity is why we have the famous images of the Apollo astronauts taking “one giant leap for mankind” on the Moon’s surface." Second one: "This famous photograph of an astronaut taking a “giant leap for mankind” demonstrates the effect of the moon’s lower gravity on a person’s weight. Because the moon is smaller than the Earth and about 60 percent as dense, the astronaut’s weight is only about one-sixth of what it would be on Earth. Although they are not as dramatic as the Earth-moon difference, slight variations in the mass and density across the Earth’s surface do create differences in Earth’s gravity field." Of course, they didn't say it directly, but it should be clear from those two fragments, that density of matter in a source has a GREAT importance for the force of gravity and properties of a g. field. Telling such heresies openly, is most likely strictly forbidden in the scientific society - as it threatens the dogma of Einstein's omniscience and absolute perfection of his GR Theory... But somene, who can read between the letters just a bit, should easily notice, that they mentioned about the density with some purpose... to be continued... What should be clear is that the density matters only in that it tells you what the mass is. 6 minutes ago, Unified Field said: "Not only is the Moon smaller than the Earth, but it is only about 60 percent as dense as Earth. Thus, the gravitational attraction on the Moon is much less than it is here on Earth, and a person weighs less on the Moon." "Because the moon is smaller than the Earth and about 60 percent as dense, the astronaut’s weight is only about one-sixth of what it would be on Earth." Oh... So maybe help me to understand those sentences correctly - as I keep understanding them, as a direct explanation of density being a crucial property for the gravitational fields. I have to hallucinate... Smaller and lower density means less mass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to hallucinate... If you read the Wikipedia page on Newton's law of gravitation you will see that gravity is proportional to the mass of the planet and inversely proportional to the distance from the centre. So, if two planets have the same mass but one of them is denser then that means the volume will be smaller and the surface will be nearer the centre (smaller radius). Therefore the surface gravity will be higher (just because you are closer the centre). It is the distance that is important. The higher density just allows you to get closer. It is not the density itself that changes anything. So, if we consider a satellite in orbit above these two planets, the only thing that matters is how far the satellite is from the centre of the planet (and the mass of the planet). The density is not relevant because we are no longer considering the surface gravity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
