Best Answer

"Absolute magnitude" talks about the intensity of light radiating from a source.

The black hole is black because no light radiates from it. So you'd have to say

that its magnitude ... visual, absolute, intrinsic, or any other kind of magnitude ...

is infinite. (Magnitude numbers are higher for dimmer sources.)

Where would a black hole be located on an h r diagram?

A Hertzsprung-Russell diagram is a scatter graph that can be used to plot the relationship between the absolute magnitude (i.e. luminosity) of a star versus it's spectral type / classification and effective temperature. Since a black hole does not have an absolute magnitude, spectral type, or an effective temperature, it cannot be located on an H-R diagram.
