Well, let's think about black holes like clouds high up in the sky. They may look solid from far away, but they're actually made up of matter squeezed together so tightly, they create a very strong gravitational pull. But don't worry, even though black holes are powerful, they offer a unique way for us to learn more about our incredible universe.

A collapsed star from which light cannot escape?

A black hole is a collapsed star with such a strong gravitational pull that not even light can escape from it. This phenomenon occurs when a massive star runs out of nuclear fuel and collapses under its own gravity. The boundary surrounding a black hole, beyond which nothing can escape, is called the event horizon.

Can the sun form a black hole and take earth to another galaxy If yes how I no why not?

No. The sun does not have enough mass to form a black hole. A black hole does not lead to another galaxy. Anything pulled into a black hole becomes part of that black hole's mass. Even then, if Earth were to fall into a black hole the same mass as the sun it would be torn apart by tidal forces long before it crossed the event horizon.


What is the inside of a blackhole called?

Since light cannot escape a black hole it is essentially invisible. Just a literal black hole in space. Fortunately, due to the extreme gravity of the singularity, light is bent (Gravitational lensing) around the outskirts of a black hole which causes a visual distortion of light.Think of a piece of metal with a bullet hole. Around the hole the metal is warped, distorted and pressed inward. That is how you would see a black hole except it would be much more difficult to see. If a black hole eclipsed a star close enough, you would see a round black emptiness surrounded by light. The hole itself is absorbing every bit of light from the star but some light is orbiting *around* the black hole as it's being sucked in causing a kind of halo. This is essentially how we look for black holes.


What is a star in which light cannot escape because of the immense gravitational pull at its surface called?

A star in which light cannot escape because of its immense gravitational pull at its surface is called a black hole.

something solid to lay on, an oxegen tank, and man you would need some courage but have fun in that black hole of yours. lol


Is the black hole a solid or a gas?

A black hole is not made of solid or gas. It is a region in spacetime with a gravitational pull so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape from it. It is believed to have a point of infinite density at its center, known as a singularity.


What difference between a white dwarf and a black hole?

A white dwarf is a white hot solid ball of nickel-iron alloy, a black hole is an infinitesimal singularity of infinite density surrounded by total emptiness.


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.

What happens in a black hole that makes the saying "what happens in a black hole stays in a black hole" true?

In a black hole, gravity is so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape. This means that whatever goes into a black hole is trapped inside forever, making the saying "what happens in a black hole stays in a black hole" true.


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 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.
