If you have two projects due the day after at 11:59, would you...

a) Sleep at 2am and almost finish one project and cram the others the next day

b) Sleep from 9-11pm and wake up, finishing both projects until 5am

c) Finish both projects, sleeping at 4 and waking up the next day finished with both and 2-3 hours of sleep

d) Cram both tomorrow :)

What does a white hole do? What is it?

The opposite of a black hole. Releases energy and matter.

What is the name of the point where the gravitational influence of two massive bodies, such as the Earth and the Moon, cancel out, allowing a smaller object to remain in a stable position?

If a spacecraft were to travel at a speed close to the speed of light, time would pass slower for the passengers compared to observers on Earth. What is this effect called, and which theory predicts it?

Time dilation, Einstein's Theory of Relativity.

The event horizon of a black hole marks the boundary beyond which nothing, not even light, can escape. If a black hole’s mass is tripled, how does its Schwarzschild radius change?

It also triples! The Schwarzschild radius (R_s) is directly proportional to the black hole’s mass:

R_s=2GM/c²

The observable universe has a "cosmic horizon" beyond which we cannot see due to the finite speed of light. What is the name of the theoretical boundary beyond which galaxies are receding faster than light due to cosmic expansion, making them forever unreachable?

Cosmological Event Horizon

A reaction is at equilibrium: PCl₅(g)⇌PCl₃(g)+Cl₂(g)PCl₅(g)⇌PCl₃(g)+Cl₂(g). The system is in a closed container at constant temperature. Predict the shift in equilibrium if:

(A) More PCL₃ is added
(B) The volume of the container is doubled
(C) A catalyst is introduced

(A) More PCl₃is added

Shift Left (toward reactants)
Adding a product makes the system try to consume it, so equilibrium shifts left to form more PCl_5.

(B) The volume of the container is doubled

Shift Right (toward products)
Increasing volume lowers pressure. Since there are more gas molecules on the right (2 moles vs. 1 mole), the system shifts right to increase pressure again.

No shift
A catalyst only speeds up the rate of reaching equilibrium but does not change the position of equilibrium.

According to general relativity, the Kerr metric describes rotating black holes. If an observer were to enter the ergosphere of a Kerr black hole, what theoretical process could allow them to extract energy from the black hole, and who proposed it?

Penrose Process, proposed by Roger Penrose in 1969

What equation describes the maximum mass a white dwarf star can have before collapsing into a neutron star or black hole, and who formulated it?

Chandrasekhar Limit, given by:

M_Ch≈1.44 M_⊙

Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar

If a white dwarf exceeds 1.44 times the Sun’s mass, electron degeneracy pressure can’t support it anymore, leading to a Type Ia supernova or collapse into a neutron star!
