Richard must’ve been very dense. Now that you can measure from the event horizon, he could be surprisingly likable.

mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 03 Jul 12:57 collapse

Well it takes a long, long time to reach him out. It feels like time is slowing down

henfredemars@infosec.pub on 03 Jul 14:01 collapse

He’s now the kind of really simple man
you can describe in just three terms:

Mass, charge, and angular momentum.

nicknonya@lemmy.blahaj.zone on 03 Jul 14:42 next collapse

the cat is struggling to not fall in but tbethe people are unaffected, implying that either:

  1. Richard is capable of controlling their gravitational pull, and just hates cats
  2. The people have learned to resist gravity.
mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 03 Jul 14:50 next collapse

I vote for option 1, since fluids are also unaffected by his gravity

Also a slight correction, maybe Richard LOVE cats

I think Richard is allergic to cats. Everyone knows that cats are attracted to people who are allergic to them

AlolanYoda@mander.xyz on 04 Jul 12:08 collapse

The selective attraction exerted on the cat by the Richard black hole reveals that Richard is allergic to cats, as cats are attracted to people allergic to them [1].

  1. The cat had the zoomies, was running toward Richard, got spooked, turned to run away digging their carpet destroying knife hands into the carpet, and this is the still shot of them primed to reach escape velocity going away from Richard
Anticorp@lemmy.world on 03 Jul 23:00 collapse

Or … Their greater mass renders them less affected than the tiny cat.

Redex68@lemmy.world on 04 Jul 11:25 collapse

That’s not how gravity works. It’s proportional to your own mass.

ZMoney@lemmy.world on 03 Jul 15:05 next collapse

A schwarschild radius of 0.5 meters corresponds to about 56 Earth masses. So Richard must have accreted a bunch of mass before he collapsed.

Holzkohlen@feddit.de on 03 Jul 17:03 next collapse

Your mom is so fat, were she to collapse into a black hole her schwarzchild radius would be 0.5 meters. Does not quite roll of the tongue, does it?

pantyhosewimp@lemmynsfw.com on 03 Jul 18:28 next collapse

I’ll bet Eminem could find a way

Tlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.ca on 06 Jul 20:00 collapse

Your mom’s schwarzchild radius is nearly as big as she is!

kuberoot@discuss.tchncs.de on 03 Jul 17:21 next collapse

Or maybe he accreted the mass after collapsing?

Alternatively, maybe that’s just the weight of his massive ego?

pantyhosewimp@lemmynsfw.com on 03 Jul 18:30 collapse

Since you know the math, how long before it evaporated? Also, at what distance would an object feel 1G of acceleration?

sinkingship@mander.xyz on 04 Jul 03:14 collapse

Not OP. What would evaporate?

I think we don’t know anymore what’s going on with Richard. I believe he would consume Earth almost instantly, including all satellites and maybe the moon.

Didn’t do the math myself, but internet says 1 G would be at about 48 km radius.

TauZero@mander.xyz on 04 Jul 09:36 collapse

For an object heavier than the Earth, 1g radius will be greater than the radius of Earth. For 56 Earth masses that’s sqrt(56) times bigger = 48000km.

A 56 Earth mass black hole will take 5.5e55 years to evaporate according to this calculator. A 100kg black hole (more close to what Richard used to be) is much smaller than the nucleus of an atom and will evaporate in 0.05 nanoseconds.

Curiously there was a paper recently that calculated that even if there was a small black hole in the center of the Sun, it would take millions of years for it to grow, because the aperture is so small not much can fit through, and the infalling gas heats up so much as to repel the rest, creating an internal hot bubble.

sinkingship@mander.xyz on 04 Jul 11:33 collapse

I am fairly sure Earth’s radius is somewhat 6 km, so something with an 48 km radius would be 42 km above Earth’s surface, where we experience 1 G.

Can you explain please, where I made a mistake?

TauZero@mander.xyz on 04 Jul 15:57 collapse

Can you explain please, where I made a mistake?

Your mistake is thinking Earth is 6km in radius! :D 6km is how far you walk in an hour. Either you think Earth 1000 times too small or kilometer 1000 times too big.

sinkingship@mander.xyz on 04 Jul 16:16 collapse

😁 whooopsie! Haha. Yeah, it’s somewhat 6000 km I mean. Sorry for my stupidity here today… Thank you very much for explaining my dumb mistake instead of making fun! Time to sleep now, I guess. Thank you!

What’s the opposite of a black hole?
That’s me 👉😏👉

pantyhosewimp@lemmynsfw.com on 03 Jul 18:27 collapse

So you are a hypothetical object.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_hole

Mac@mander.xyz on 03 Jul 19:02 collapse

no because white holes still attract matter

mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 04 Jul 11:13 collapse

Wat?

Mac@mander.xyz on 04 Jul 21:17 collapse

Read the link…

mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 05 Jul 03:00 collapse

white hole is a hypothetical region of spacetime and singularity that cannot be entered from the outside, although energy-matter, light and information can escape from it. In this sense, it is the reverse of a black hole, from which energy-matter, light and information cannot escape. White holes appear in the theory of eternal black holes.

Wat?

Mac@mander.xyz on 06 Jul 01:18 collapse

Literally in the first sentence of the overview.
“They attract matter like any other mass”

Oh i checked the intro and then the properties lol

Black holes aren’t like magnets

chumbalumber@lemmy.blahaj.zone on 03 Jul 19:20 next collapse

What about the comic made you think it was implying that?

austinfloyd@ttrpg.network on 03 Jul 19:58 collapse

I think they’re implying that a black hole the mass of a person has the same gravitational attraction that the person had before collapsing (negligible).

Dkarma@lemmy.world on 03 Jul 20:20 next collapse

Boy are you wrong

Anticorp@lemmy.world on 03 Jul 22:59 next collapse

Right. Magnets only work on ferrous metals. Black holes will suck anything in, even light.

sploosh@lemmy.world on 04 Jul 16:09 collapse

Saying they suck things in isn’t really correct, unless you want to also say that the sun is constantly sucking Earth toward it. It’s just gravity.

Also, magnets don’t only work on ferrous metals. Magnets push electrons through copper loops in generators and that’s how we have electricity.

Anticorp@lemmy.world on 04 Jul 16:31 collapse

More accurately things fall into black holes, but we’re just talking about a comic.

Texas_Hangover@lemm.ee on 03 Jul 23:05 collapse

Neither is gravity. What’s your fucking point?

Anticorp@lemmy.world on 03 Jul 22:58 next collapse

The cat is a nice detail.

Here is the novelization of the cartoon… sort of. As She Climbed Across the Table by Jonathan Lethem.

elrik@lemmy.world on 04 Jul 10:30 next collapse

Richard evaporated, almost instantaneously.

mlg@lemmy.world on 04 Jul 16:56 collapse

Not a physicist, but how long would a blackhole of that size last lol?

xenoclast@lemmy.world on 04 Jul 21:36 collapse

Hard to be completely sure… but an earth mass black hole is roughly an inch across.

That’s probably a Jupiter mass black hole… things would be a lot more wild at that party.

Honestly this is an event horizon… not the black hole itself and I’m too fucking lazy to do the schwazchild calculations maybe it matters at this scale… maybe not.
