Cygnus X1 is probably a black hole. There is certainly a black hole at the center of our galaxy. Most quasars are likely similar super massive black holes, swallowing continuous streams of matter and ejecting bipolar jets of matter and radiation arcing out hundreds of thousands of light years.
Black holes have existed for billions of years--through a significant fraction of the age of our universe. It has been hypothesized that in the early moments of the big bang quantum black holes may have been created, but Stephen Hawking showed how these should evaporate fairly rapidly.
Scientists cannot be certain, as we have yet to experiment with a black hole, but they theorize that time would slow down relative to time far from the black hole.
A dead star. The dead star's smashed atoms come together, and are crushed again. This births a black hole
Well, obviously, if it formed a certain time ago. But I don't think you can tell the age of a black hole just by looking at it.
The weight of a black hole doesn't tear spacetime because the black hole's mass warps spacetime only around its immediate vicinity, following the curvature of general relativity. This warping allows objects to enter and exit without spacetime tearing.
The question implies that time can somehow cease to exist. However time can not be destroyed or 'uncreated', since time is neither matter nor energy - both of which, some theorize, can be crushed into the singularity of a Black Hole.AnswerA Black Hole can swallow up time in the sense that the passage of time for the space and matter trapped within the event horizon would also be effected and trapped. Time could appear to stop or very nearly stop inside a black hole. So a perceived swallowing of time might be appropriate depending on ones accepted definitions and position on the properties of time.
yes. but the intense gravity is so strong it seems to bend time so slowly some people believe that there is no time in a black hole I WOULD JUST LIKE TO POINT OUT that time does exist in a black hole it is just extremely slow on another note if time did not exist in a black hole then a black hole would not suck things into it. so time does exist in a black hole.
No. Once something enters a black hole it can never come out.
Within the so-called event horizon, space and time around the black hole are distored in such a way that the only way a ray of light (for example) can move is closer towards the black hole's center.
You get the shark to come near you and follow you to the black hole, then when you get to the black hole you turn a let the shark in. Have fun!
Inside a black hole, time behaves differently than outside. Time slows down as you get closer to the center of a black hole, eventually stopping completely at the singularity. This means that time inside a black hole is essentially frozen.
Maybe...
Dont hold me to this, but any thing that goes into a black hole does not come out. In suggesting that you reapear, you would be be refering to a wormhole
Time in a black hole is affected by its intense gravitational pull, causing it to slow down significantly compared to time outside the black hole. This means that time passes much more slowly inside a black hole than it does outside of it.
Scientists cannot be certain, as we have yet to experiment with a black hole, but they theorize that time would slow down relative to time far from the black hole.
Time in a black hole is distorted due to the extreme gravitational pull. According to the theory of general relativity, time slows down as you get closer to the center of a black hole, eventually coming to a stop at the singularity. This means that time inside a black hole behaves differently than outside of it.
Yes, matter and energy can come out of a black hole through a process called Hawking radiation, which was proposed by physicist Stephen Hawking.
Yes. In the neighborhood of a black hole, both time and space are distorted, due to the black hole's strong gravitational attraction.
