    introduced his concept of general relativity. This theory enabled the initial good explanations of black holes to be created. One year later Karl Schwarzschild came up with the initial mathematical description. Currently it is referred as Schwarzschild black hole. It explains a black hole that is completely spherical and does not rotate. Karl Schwarzschild is recognized as a bright astronomer who discovered black holes concept. In 1916‚ Karl applied Einstein’s general relativity’s theory. He started

    Time According to Einstein’s Theory of Relativity In 1915‚ Albert Einstein first proposed his theory of special relativity. Essentially‚ this theory proposes the universe we live in includes 4 dimensions‚ the first three being what we know as space‚ and the fourth being spacetime‚ which is a dimension where time and space are inextricably linked. According to Einstein‚ two people observing the same event in the same way could perceive the singular event occurring at two different times‚ depending

    -- much like birds -- by creating lift through wing shape as well as the wing’s angle -- both of which serve to alter airflow. Modern Communication * Physics is all relative. This theme resonates through Einstein’s special and general theories of relativity. One focus is on the physics of time‚ which alters throughout the universe and doesn’t maintain a uniform structure; the speed of an object can dictate the time-flow of and on that object. A common manipulation of this exists within GPS

    understand." - Einstein Something else that was circling the globe in that year was Einstein’s reputation. At the time of this interview‚ his fame had spread across Europe and America. Everywhere he was acclaimed a genius for defining the principles of relativity‚ though very few people understood what they meant. Imagination may have been essential to his breakthrough thinking‚ but Einstein’s discovery also rested on his vast knowledge of physical science. Knowledge and imagination let him see the relationship

    Quasars A Quasi-stellar radio source‚ also known as a quasar‚ is an extremely distant nucleus to an active galaxy. They are the furthest objects away from our galaxy that can be seen‚ but are visible to us because they are the brightest matter in our universe. Quasars are known to have an extremely high redshift. Though we have not been observing quasars for long enough to determine how they are born‚ they are believed to have been formed by supermassive black holes consuming an enormous amount

    which means they are making enough energy to push their mass outward against the force of gravity. When the star runs out of fuel to make energy‚ gravity takes over. Gravity pulls the center of the star inward very quickly. A white hole‚ in general relativity‚ is a hypothetical region of space time which cannot be entered from the outside‚ but from which matter and light may escape. In this sense it is the reverse of a black hole‚ which can be entered from the outside‚ but from which nothing‚ including

    Research Paper- Black Holes It’s really fun to keep observing with night sky with your naked eyes or a telescope. But have you ever thought that their might be bodies which could not be seen? Well let us think‚ what is Vision? When light is reflected or emitted by an object and it comes to our eyes‚ we can see that thing. According to the Interference phenomena and the Photoelectric Effect‚ light can be categorized as both a wave and particle. Also called as the Wave-Particle Duality of light

    Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation Apples had a significant contribution to the discovery of gravitation. The English physicist Isaac Newton (1642-1727) introduced the term "gravity" after he saw an apple falling onto the ground in his garden. "Gravity" is the force of attraction exerted by the earth on an object. The moon orbits around the earth because of gravity too. Newton later proposed that gravity was just a particular case of gravitation. Every mass in the universe attracts every other

    The Big Bang theory is the prevailing cosmological model for the early development of the universe.[1] The key idea is that the universe is expanding. Consequently‚ the universe was denser and hotter in the past. Moreover‚ the Big Bang model suggests that at some moment all matter in the universe was contained in a single point‚ which is considered the beginning of the universe. Modern measurements place this moment at approximately 13.8 billion years ago‚ which is thus considered the age of the
