You would think very fast, since their gravity is so strong. However, the closer to a black hole something gets, the more warped is the spacetime. Time appears very slow near a black hole, so the question is does it take a really long time to suck summat up?

Do black holes suck in electricity?

Black holes don't in fact 'suck in' anything; I know you are using the word as a figure of speech. The gravity of a black hole is so strong that if an electric current, or something conducting an electric current, goes below the event horizon, the electricity will not escape. There is some evidence suggesting that black holes do decay over vast time periods. Currently, even the absorption of the background radiation is more than enough to compensate for any decay that is happening in most large black holes.


Do white holes suck up objects like black holes do?

White holes are theoretical regions of spacetime that expel matter and energy outward, the opposite of black holes which pull matter in. They do not suck up objects like black holes do. However, there is no observational evidence for the existence of white holes in the universe.


What can you say about black holes?

Black holes were stars that were so massive that they collapsed on itself. The gravity in black holes is infinite and more you get closer to it, more time gets slower. Black holes suck all matter that is too close. Even light can't escape Black holes.


How do you identify black holes?

Is there anything black holes can't suck up?

There are hypotheses about so called 'virtual particles' that may travel faster than speed of light, and hence are not sucked up by Black Holes. Also, Black Holes cannot suck another bigger Black Hole, when they meet a bigger one, they get sucked up rather.
