Which excerpt from Neil deGrasse Tyson’s “Death by Black Hole” best provides evidence that escape from a black hole is impossibl

e? . . . the speed required to escape a black hole is greater than the speed of light itself. . . . light travels at exactly 299,792,458 meters per second in a vacuum and is the fastest stuff in the universe. But if the black hole were 6,000 feet across, then the same man’s feet would be only one-tenth of 1 percent closer to the center than his head, and the difference in gravity—the tidal force—would be correspondingly small. Meanwhile, the stuff within the event horizon has collapsed to an infinitesimal point at the black hole’s center. So black holes are not so much deadly objects as they are deadly regions of space. If you stumbled upon a black hole and found yourself falling feet-first toward its center, then as you got closer, the black hole’s force of gravity would grow astronomically.

The statements<em>'the speed required to escape a black hole is greater than the speed of light itself'</em> and the one that light<em> 'is the fastest stuff in the universe.' </em>are sufficient to build a logic relation to conclude that it is impossible to escape one.

Since the only way to escape a black hole is by traveling faster than the speed of light, and it is impossible to achieve such, then it's therefore impossible to escape from a black hole.

How does Greta Thunberg and Sylvia Stults explore climate change?
Elena L [17]

Answer and Explanation:

Sylvia Stults explored climate change through poetry and literature. She was able to write a very influential poem, where she was able to point out in an incisive way the negative impacts of environmental pollution, where climate changes were associated. Sylvia Stults, in her poem, shows how nature has been negatively modified over the years, causing degradation, dishonest and excessive exploitation and contamination of what is essential for our life, nature.

Greta Thunberg, on the other hand, approaches environmental changes in a more political way, drawing the attention of directives of great leaders and political organizations so that they can fix the environmental problems they have created, thus guaranteeing a future for children who are not responsible for pollution, degradation and climatic changes that are being submitted.

- Why did Newton compare himself to a child?​
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Isaac Newton is considered one of the most important scientists in history. Even Albert Einstein said that Isaac Newton was the smartest person that ever lived. During his lifetime Newton developed the theory of gravity, the laws of motion (which became the basis for physics), a new type of mathematics called calculus, and made breakthroughs in the area of optics such as the reflecting telescope.

Parker is putting down tiles in his kitchen. His kitchen is 10 feet long and 6 feet wide.
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

$300

Explanation:

Given that:

Dimension of kitchen = 10 ft long ; 6 ft wide

Area of kitchen = Length * width

Area = 10ft * 6ft = 60ft²

1 tile = 1ft²

1 tile cost $5

Number of tiles needed:

60ft² / 1ft² = 60 tiles

Cost :

Number of tiles * cost per tile

60 * $5

= $300
