Abstract

We study entropic force effects on black holes and photons. We find that application of an entropic analysis restricts the radial change ΔRΔR of a black hole of radius RHR_{\mathrm{H}}, due to a test particle of a Schwartzchild radius RhR_{h} moving towards the black hole by ΔxΔx near black body surface, to be given by a relation RHΔR=RhΔx/2R_{\mathrm{H}} ΔR= R_h Δx/2, or ${ΔR}/{\lambdabar_M} = {Δx}/{2 \lambdabar_m}$. We suggest a new rule regarding entropy changes in different dimensions, $ΔS= 2πk D Δl /\lambdabar,$ which unifies Verlinde's conjecture and the black hole entropy formula. We also propose to extend the entropic force idea to massless particles such as a photon. We find that there is an entropic force on a photon of energy EγE_γ, with F=GMmγ/R2F=G M m_γ/R^2, and therefore the photon has an effective gravitational mass mγ=Eγ/c2m_γ= E_γ/c^2.
