The masses of black holes vary greatly. The lowest mass stellar black holes are about 3 times the mass of the sun. The most massive black holes are about 12 billion times the sun's mass.

Why is there a black hole in the milky way?

There are loads of black holes in the Milky Way Galaxy. The closest is only 1,600 light years away. The largest is at our galactic centre. A super massive black hole, with a mass greater than over 4 million solar masses or over 4 million times bigger than the sun. Black holes are resulte of a defomation in space created by a very compact mass.


Does every galaxy contain a black hole?

No, not every galaxy contains a black hole. While many galaxies do have a supermassive black hole at their center, there are also galaxies that do not have a black hole.


How does a white dwarf differ from a black hole?

A white dwarf is the last stage of stellar evolution for stars with masses similar to our Sun. A black hole, on the other hand, is the last stage of stellar evolution for stars having very large masses, many times greater than that of the Sun. Consequently, very few stars end up as black holes. Additionally, black holes have an escape velocity greater than the speed of light, while a white dwarf's escape velocity is less than the speed of light.

What will the black hole do to your solar syatem?

Nothing, unless a black hole comes very near to us. By the way, you shouldn't say "the" black hole, unless you make it clear which black hole you mean. There are many black holes.


When black holes die?

Black holes do slowly "evaporate" through something called Hawking Radiation. The process is extremely slow and the bigger the black hole the slower it becomes. A black hole the mass of the sun would take about 2x10^67 years to disappear, which is many orders of magnitude greater than the age of the universe.
