general relativity - Communication near a black hole


One ship is in a stable orbit outside of the event horizon of a very large black hole so that there is significant time dilation.


Another ship is in its own orbit around the same black hole, but at a much greater distance, so that time dilation is minimal.


If someone on the ship much farther away turns a very bright light on and off again every 10 seconds, what will the observer on the ship near the black hole see?

classical mechanics - Moment of a force about a given axis (Torque) - Scalar or vectorial?

I am studying Statics and saw that: The moment of a force about a given axis (or Torque) is defined by the equation: $M_X = (\vec r \times \...
