Every quantity in linear mechanics has an equivalent "buddy" in rotational mechanics. Imagine them as siblings; one loves to run straight, while the other loves to spin around!
What's a Black Hole? Picture this: It's like a cosmic vacuum cleaner, with so much gravity that nothing, not even light, can escape its grasp!
Accretion Disk: That cool-looking spirally thing around a black hole? It's called an accretion disk. It's made of matter, like gas, swirling super-fast around the black hole.
Real-world Analogy: Imagine water spiraling down a drain. As it gets closer to the center of the drain (our black hole), it spins faster and faster. That's a bit like the matter speeding up as it gets closer to the black hole due to conservation of angular momentum.
