How is math related to black holes?
The concept of a black hole was first discovered mathematically in 1916 through the equations of Einstein's general relativity. Using mathematics scientists were able to figure out many of the properties and behaviors of black holes before the end of the 1960s. The first direct psychical evidence of a black hole was not found until the late 1970s.
Is chemistry hard for a mathematics major?
I suppose that mathematics is more difficult than chemistry.
Does a black hole have rings?
The mathematics of a black hole itself does not require them. However matter around them will tend to orbit the black hole before eventually falling in, this creates what is called an accretion disk which could be considered a "ring". There is also strong evidence that all spiral galaxies contain a super massive black hole, if this is indeed the case then the entire disk of such galaxies could be considered a second "ring".
What is a tonne in mathematics?
In mathematics, a tonne is a unit of mass equivalent to 1000 kilograms. It is commonly used when dealing with very large masses or weights.
Does 0 need units of measurement in mathematics?
