Well black holes have an emmense gravitational pull which would be the main relation between the two infact black holes are so powerfuly related to gravity that not even light (the fastest object in the universe) can escape it!

Mass is a property of matter that gives rise to weight, and inertia - or resistance to being accelerated by a force. Gravity is a fundamental force which arises from mass, and causes an attraction between two massive bodies. A black hole is a region of spacetime predicted by general relativity and characterized by gravity so intense that nothing, including light, can escape. Black holes are shown to be the end product of the sequence of events in the life of stars of a certain mass. Larger black holes exist at the center of most galaxies and also may have been created by the big bang, and possibly other natural mechanisms.

Nothing is. That is, nothing about the gravity at any given distance from a black hole is

any different from the gravity at the same distance from any other object that has the

same mass as the black hole.

What's different about a black hole is the fact that its mass is all concentrated in a very

small volume ... possibly zero volume. So you can get much closer to the black hole's

center of mass than to the center of an equal mass that's not packed into a black hole.

For example:

You can't get any closer to the Earth's center of mass than about 4,000 miles. Closer

than that, the ground is in your way. But if it were possible to get within, say, 1/2 inch

of the Earth's center ... WITH ALL OF ITS MASS PACKED INTO THAT space ... then the

gravity at that distance would be a very different thing.

A planet, a comet, an asteroid, a weather satellite in orbit around a planet, or an

astronaut during a space-jaunt outside a space station in orbit around a planet, if

they're all at a normal planetary distance from the black hole, then they all maintain

a nice normal planetary orbit around it, just as if they were in orbit around a star

with the same mass as the black hole. Of course, their Physicists realize that the

central body in their system is no normal star, because it's always so dark and cold

on their planet. But as far as gravity alone is concerned, there's nothing special

going on at their distance.

How are gravity and black holes related?

Black holes are the cause of gravity... Black holes are created when a supernova condenses, creating a black hole. It condenses because gravity has won the battle between the star's core. So basically, gravity fuels a Black hole.


What does gravity have to do with black holes?

Black holes are only theories. They halve not been proven, although it is likely they exist. The theory goes, a large (super massive) mass has so much mass it implodes creating a rift in space time contium. This implosion is due to the extreeme mas of the object, it would be unimajanalbly massive. So the force of gravity created by its own mass makes the mass smaller, too small, until it implodes. Have a look into Special relitivity.


Can black holes explode if they suck too much energy?

No. Any energy that enters a black hole simply becomes part of its mass. This only makes the black hole's gravity stronger.


Do black holes use gravity?

Yes. Black holes suck things inside. The only way to suck these things inside is by massive form of gravity. Black holes can suck in as little as a small chunk of rock, or as big as a planet. Black holes don't "use" gravity, they are a side effect of it. To create a black hole requires a force that can grow infinitely: of the strong nuclear, weak nuclear, electromagnetic and gravity forces, only gravity is infinite in it's strength that is it is based on the masses and distances of the objects involved, it has no limit. A black hole is generated when enough mass joins together and the force of gravity generated is so strong that light can't escape it (at event horizon and lower.) In most cases for the mass to get that heavy, gravity has to bring them together in the first place (every so often high speed collisions will join masses, but it rare.) It's almost a snake biting it's tail: gravity pulls the parts together, the parts coming together increases gravity, that gravity pulls more parts .......


If gravity waves travel at the speed of light and black holes' escape velocity is much greater than the speed of light then how can gravity waves escape a black hole?

Gravity is not a 'wave', it is a field of curvature of space-time caused by objects with mass. A black hole contains the mass of a star, compressed to the space of a single atom (a singularity), the compression of so much mass into such a small space, is why the black hole has such a powerful gravitational pull.

How strong is the black holes gravitational pull?

The strength of a black hole's gravity depends on the black hole's mass and how far your reference point is from the center of mass.


Do black holes obey gravity?

actually black holes are the masters of gravity has the most gravity ever


Where do black holes get gravity?

black holes are stars which collapsed under their own gravity.


What forces black holes?

The existence of black holes is an outgrowth or prediction of General Relativity, which was Einstein's theory of gravitation. The dominant force forming black holes is the force of gravity, a universal attraction between mass.


Why black hole has much gravity and what is it's source?

The source of its gravity is its mass. Black holes also have the property of being very dense. Black holes by definition are objects where the escape velocity is equal to or greater than the speed of light.


Why do black holes suck in objects?

They don't. The attractive force between two objects is due to gravity. Black holes behave exactly like any other mass in this respect.


How were black holes started?

Black Holes are created when stars above a certain mass start collapsing in on themselves. They're mass affects space time and they become a small point in space with an unimaginably large amount of gravity.


Why is the gravity of the black hole so large?

The gravity of an object depends on its mass, and on the distance to the object. In a black hole, the mass is concentrated in a very small space. That means that IF YOU GET VERY NEAR the black hole, the gravity will be enormous. But at any given distance, the gravity of a black hole will not be larger than the gravity of any other object of the same mass.Also, note that some black holes have a huge mass - in extreme cases, more than ten billion times the mass of the Sun. In that case, the huge gravity is due to the huge mass.


Where the value g is infinity?

The value of g is infinity in the case of intense gravity means where there will be more mass there will be more gravity and the black hole is the place where there is too much mass and too much gravity so the answer of your question is that in the singularities or in the black holes the value of g becomes infinity.


What has the most gravity in the universe?

Perhaps the most massive of all "singular" objects in the universe is a super-massive black hole.Certainly a galaxy that has many black holes in it and billions and billions of stars has more mass and more gravity than any star or smaller galaxy. But as regards "point objects" in our uinverse. The most massive black holes, the so-called super-massive black holes, are the ones with the most gravity.
