When a massive star dies, gravity forces it to fall in on itself, and the result is a gigantic explosion called a hypernova. The leftover of a hypernova is a black hole.

What happens when a black hole forms in a black hole?

A black hole can't really form inside of another black hole. If you think of a black hole forming after a star goes supernova, then there isn't really a star to go supernove inside of the already created black hole. In fact, there isn't even any space inside of the blak hole for anything to happen. Two black holes can join together, but they wil eventually go to one.

What is a collapsed star with strong gravitation?

depends on how strong.... when a massive star's life ends and it collapses on itself extremely quickly... it forms a black hole and the black hole has an EXTREMELY strong gravitational pull..... so i think the answer is black hole


What factor determines if a neutron star forms or a black hole forms after a supernova explosion?

The factor that determines whether a neutron star or a black hole forms after a supernova explosion is the mass of the collapsing core of the star. If the core's mass is between about 1.4 and 3 times the mass of the sun, a neutron star is formed. If the core's mass exceeds about 3 solar masses, a black hole is likely to form.


IS Light is the only thing that can escape a black hole?

Yes, light is the only thing that can escape a black hole's gravitational pull. Nothing with mass, including matter and other forms of energy, can escape a black hole once it crosses its event horizon.

How is a black hole caused?

a black hole is caused by a supernova, then the black hole forms. the matter sucked in and gets shot through a worm hole. after the wormhole the matter gets shot out a white hole. the wormhole is impossible to see, for witch this hard to belive for it goes from one end of the galixy to the other endhope i helped!


How is a blackhole formed in our universe?

A blackhole is formed in our universe when matter falls onto the black hole and that forms an accretion disk that is heated by friction. The black hole does not allow anything to escape it.

No. Comets are made from the leftover material when a solar system forms.


What is accretion disc of black holes?

that`s all the matter its sucking in. and this forms a flat disc around the black hole similar to the disc around Saturn only the disc around the black hole is spiraling in on itselfs
