Ask me any question about science.

There is a high likelyhood I will answer.

DOES THIS LOOK LIKE PHILOSOPHY 101 TO YOU

What does Philosophy 101 look like?

You did not answer the question I asked.  I did not ask what r is as a function of the mass of the black hole.  I asked what r is as a function of the Schwarzschild coordinate R.  In any case, the fact that your answer is right (for the wrong question) is purely a coincidence between Newtonian gravity and GR.

Because space is curved, the physical distance between R and 2R is not R.  Integrating the metric yields
= Integral[1/sqrt(1-R/r),dr,R,2R]
= UglyFunction(2R) - UglyFunction(R)
= R(sqrt(2) + Ln(sqrt(R)(1 + sqrt(2))))- RLn(R)/2
= R(sqrt(2) + Ln(1 + sqrt(2))) > R

Attempting the same integral for 0R to 1R yields an imaginary distance because time and space flopped in some bizarre way that I still have trouble figuring out.  All objects falling into a black hole take a finite proper time to reach the singularity, and travel at a finite speed, so it seems conceivable that there is a finite distance between the singularity and the event horizon, but I'm not sure what coordinates to integrate over.  I've puzzled over this for quite a while, but I can't even gurantee that a solution exists.  I'm hoping that somebody on /sci/ knows more GR than I do...

Well before the midterm it's full of emo artfag starbucks-intellectuals talking about things that have to do more with their hair than existence or rootedness or unification.

Still being in high school and planning to major in Philosophy, that pains me to hear. I'm minoring in Math to level it out, so perhaps I won't turn completely gay from the experience.

How do we know what is outside of our universe?

>>46

How do you know there's anything outside of it?

nothing is outside the universe.

universe = {x | exists x}

this is a question of science, not philosophy nowadays, unless you are talking about metaphysics which of course is philosophy.

There's no such thing as a  logically consistent "universe." This is easily shown by Russell's paradox. Go Wikipedia it or something.

Why does the double slit experiment conclude that observing a particle changes a particle?  Can't there be other explanations besides "we change it by observing"?  Because that conclusion makes people write books on why magic is real, thoughts influence reality, and some supernatural consciousness guides our metaphysical chakra crystals and crap.

There is only one reality for each person ;)

@ "Dr.Science" :

How about a suit in Gantz?

Want to "create" it with me toghether?

EAPOCS = Electro Active Polymer Optical Camouflage Suit

That is the name of this suit ;)

Just tell me if you are interested in it.^^

Science question: why am I attracted to hentai loli feet?

Well easy answer:

Perhaps you are brain-retarded, you failure of a human?

Lol

>>54 quoted to himself ..... -.-

Damn it that is me.....^^

wtf

LAFFO

I never drank one drop of alcohol, but I can tell this board is the closest thing to being drunk.

Why do you doubt?
