If a black holes would come anywhere near Earth, they could cause tidal effects in the same way that any other mass would. The principle is the same, for example, as when the Moon causes tides on Earth. The basic idea is that the gravity of the other mass is stronger on one side of Earth (the side that is nearer to the mass) than on the other one.

Is tidal energy a renewable resourse?

Yes, along with wind and solar, tidal is a great renewable resource


Which of these black holes exerts the weakest tidal forces on an object near its event horizon?

The larger the black hole, the weaker the tidal forces experienced by an object near its event horizon. Therefore, the black hole with the weakest tidal forces would be the most massive and least compact one.


What percent of volcanoes cause tidal waves?

no volcanoes cause tidal waves - the plates create land. earthquakes, however, do make tidal waves and tsunamis in the aftermath. look that up instead.


How does the shape of an inlet affect its tidal range?

Larger inlets create larger tidal ranges, due to the construction and nature of the movement of water.

Will tidal power create jobs?

Yes, tidal power projects have the potential to create jobs, particularly in the areas of engineering, construction, maintenance, and operation. These jobs can help support local economies and foster growth in the renewable energy sector.


What does a tidal generating station require to be effective?

Tidal energy can work in only certain locations. A tidal generating station must be in an area where the difference between high and low tides is very large. This means the tidal waters will have a great deal of energy.

Are tidal forces in black holes?

Yes. Anything with mass has gravity and thus tidal forces. Tidal forces are a consequence of the fact that the strength of gravity from an object depends on the distance from its center of mass. For example, since your feet are closer to Earth's center than your head is, they experience a stronger gravitational pull than your head does. However since that difference is tiny compared with Earth's radius, the tidal force you experience is much too small to be felt. With a black hole, however, you an get much closer to the center of mass than you can with any other object of similar mass. Tidal forces near a stellar mass black hole are enormous.
