As a star ages, it will undergo a variety of changes. One of the last phases of a large star's life is to gravitationally collapse its mass into a black hole of the same mass. Assuming the Sun was capable of becoming a black hole (it isn't), what would happen to the orbits of planets in our solar system if it becomes a black hole? Explain your answer.

Which of the following scenarios pose a planetary extinction risk? (Choose all that apply) Magnetic storms arising from solar prominences Earthquake Thermal radiation from dark matter Magnetic storms arising from nuclear vortexes Spacetime ripples Super-cooling effects of dark energy Comet collisions Black hole at the center of the Milky Way Supernova Gamma ray burst As time passes by, the width of a star's CHZ will ___. decrease, then increase stay the same increase increase, then decrease decrease

What concept/observation initiated the idea of a black hole? a) Escape velocity being equal to the speed of light. b) Gravitational waves. c) Space being malleable. d) Neutron stars suddenly disappearing. Bob is very close to an event horizon while Alice is observing Bob. What can't a black hole do in this situation? a) Slow the passage of time for Bob as measured by Bob himself. b) Slow the passage of time for Bob as measured by Alice. c) Let Bob escape when Bob falls into the black hole.
