Black holes can increase in mass (and therefore size; the diameter of a black hole's event horizon is directly proportional to its mass) by accretion, or taking in additional matter and/or energy.

How do black holes grow and what factors contribute to their expansion over time?

Black holes grow by consuming matter and merging with other black holes. Factors that contribute to their expansion over time include the amount of surrounding matter, the gravitational pull of nearby objects, and the rate at which they consume material.


Do black holes expand or collapse?

The general tendency is for black holes to grow. If any matter falls into a black hole, its mass will increase, and therefore its Schwarzschild radius (the radius of its event horizon) will increase as well.The general tendency is for black holes to grow.

How big can black holes grow in the vast expanse of the universe?

Black holes can grow to be incredibly massive in the universe, with some reaching sizes billions of times larger than our sun. The exact size a black hole can grow to depends on factors such as the amount of matter it consumes and its environment.

How big can a black hole grow?

Black holes can grow in size by consuming matter and merging with other black holes. There is no known limit to how big a black hole can grow, but their growth is limited by the amount of matter available in their surroundings.


What do black holes do after they form?

After a black hole forms, it continues to exist in space, exerting a strong gravitational pull on surrounding matter. Anything that gets too close to a black hole, including light, cannot escape its gravitational grasp and is consumed. Black holes can continue to grow in size by absorbing matter and merging with other black holes.
