It depends on which is nearer. The huge mass of a black hole would overwhelm the planets mass, so this would not make much difference in terms of which would be drawn in first.

If quasars having black hole in the centre why all the material near it not sucked in that black hole?

I'm guessing since quazar's are large pillars of gas, blahity blah, it is being sucked into the black hole, just very slowly. Without the sucking effect it wouldn't be in a large pillar form.


What are the causes of planet destruction?

1. local star goes nova and obliterates planet with cast off stuff 2. planet falls into a star or black hole 3. impact from another object such as a large enough meteor, comet or other planet


Why isn't a quasar a planet?

Quasars are not planets because they are not spherical and do not orbit a star. A quasar is a supermassive black hole in the process of consuming large amounts of matter.


How large can a terrestrial planet be and still be habitable?

Practically ,life could exist anywhere. Scientists have discovered extremepholites. A rocky planet has no limit to it's size. Unless it's gravitational pull turns itself into a black hole. the answer is ∞

Has a black hole ever gone near to any planet?

That seems likely, considering the large number of black holes and of planets in the Universe. However, I am not aware of any specific observation of a planet falling into a black hole, for example. On the other hand, the likelyhood of a black hole getting close to Earth, withint any reasonable amount of time, is very low.

How did Jupiter get so many rings?

Usually large planets such as jupiter have such large mass and gravity that anything that comes its way is sucked into orbit. The fact that it has a lot of rings is because scientists consider one string of debris around a planet to be a ring so usually there are tons of rings, like orbitals on an atom. (if you have studied that)
