There really isn't a purpose. It's simply a byproduct of a huge star's gravity that turns on itself.
What it does...however, is to suck in matter with its tremendous gravitational pull, never to release it until hawking radiation causes it to degenerate (which takes trillions of years).
What happens to the matter? Well, at the center of a black hole is what scientists conjecture to be a "singularity", an infinitely small spinning ring that spins at an infinite rate. (what???) There's a small black sphere, a result of gravitation, that surrounds the singularity, which is the point where the gravitational force is able to pull in light, making escape impossible.
Once the matter disappears, it's stretched to its limit until gravitational force exceeds the forces that hold molecules, and eventually the nuclei of atoms together. Whatever goes in now is irrevocably dead.
Now, one of two things may happen. If the matter hits the ring, it's "assimilated". It becomes, in a manner of speaking, part of the black hole. If it falls through the ring...however (good luck with falling through an infinitely small ring), it might end up in another universe.

∙ 13y agoActually, the purpose of black holes is to absorb matter and spew it out into the universe to seed new galaxies, stars, planets and things.
Black holes are the "cleaners" of the galaxy, in my opinion.

What does a black hole do with what it suck in?
The material sucked in to a black hole becomes part of the black hole - that is, a black hole crushes matter to an nearly no size, at all.
Can any black hole turn into a neutron star?
No. A black hole will remain a black hole. A neutron star is a remnant of a star not massive enough to become a black hole.
Sentence for black hole?
A black hole is a type of star with excessive gravity. Here are some sentences.The star was sucked into the black hole close by.A black hole will even absorb light.The scientist is studying a black hole.
How big is Neptunes Black hole?
Neptune does not have a black hole
Where will you go if you fall in to a black hole?
Into the black hole's singularity.
What is black hole routing?
In routing, a "black hole" is a place where data packets disappears - either on purpose or due to a configuration error.
A collapsed star from which light cannot escape?
The collapses star gets squeezed by collapses gas and turns into a black hole.
What is the difference between a Scchwarzschild and a Kerr black hole?
A Schwarzschild black hole is a non-rotating black hole. The Kerr black hole is a rotating black hole. Since the latter is more complicated to describe, it was developed much later.A Schwarzschild black hole is a non-rotating black hole. The Kerr black hole is a rotating black hole.

What does the black hole do to the star?
A black hole originated as a star, that is, the star converted to a black hole.
What does a black hole do with what it suck in?
The material sucked in to a black hole becomes part of the black hole - that is, a black hole crushes matter to an nearly no size, at all.
Where will you go in a black hole it?
If you fall into a black hole, you'll go into the black hole and nowhere else.
What is the environment in a black hole?
probs black hole
Is the super massive black hole the largest black hole?
Black hole is a location in space that possesses so much gravity, nothing can escape from its pull. Yes, Super massive black hole is the largest black hole.
Can any black hole turn into a neutron star?
No. A black hole will remain a black hole. A neutron star is a remnant of a star not massive enough to become a black hole.
Can you make a black hole inside a black hole?
We know nothing about the conditions within a black hole, but it seems unlikely that a black hole could exist within a black hole, or even if this concept would have any meaning at all.
Is an Intermediate-mass black hole a type of black hole?
Yes. Intermediate-mass blackhole is a medium size black hole. Scientists have found stellar black holes and supermassive black holes but there is no prove that Intermediate-mass black type of black holes exist. My opinion is that they do exist because when a black hole is becoming a black hole supermassiveblack hole it will need to go though this stage of intermediate-mass black hole.
