yes, it sure is. (if the core is massive enough.) if not, it becomes a Neutron Star.

What are the requirements for a star that can form a black hole?

A star must have a mass several times greater than our Sun's to form a black hole. When the star exhausts its nuclear fuel, it collapses under gravity, leading to a supernova explosion, which can leave behind a black hole if the remnant mass is sufficient.


How long does it take after a star goes supernova does it become a black hole?

The supernova stage itself lasts only a few days or weeks. Once the star runs out of fuel, the collapse into a neutron star or black hole (depending on the remaining mass) should be quite sudden - whatever it takes for matter to fall toward the center.


Does a supernova implode or explode to form a black hole?

It depends on the mass of the star. When massive stars die the result is usually an enormous explosion called a supernova, but the core will collapse to form a dense remnant. If the remnant is less than 3 times the mass of the sun then it will form a neutron star. If it is greater than 3 times the mass of the sun it will form a black hole. Extremely massive stars may collapse directly into a black hole with no supernova.


Sometimes the leftovers of a supernova collapse to from a?

A black hole or a neutron star.


Can any black hole turn into a neutron star?

No, black holes cannot turn into neutron stars. Neutron stars form from the remnants of supernova explosions of massive stars, while black holes are formed from the gravitational collapse of massive stars. Once a black hole is formed, it will remain a black hole and will not transform into a neutron star.

What might happened to a star after it explodes as a supernova?

The supernova remnant will either be a neutron star or a black hole.


What determines what stage comes after a supernova?

The amount of mass in the remnant. If the mass of the remnant exceeds 3 solar masses then it will become a black hole.


What remnant does a supernova leave?

Depending on the mass of the original star, it is either a black hole or a neutron star.

Were did a black hole come from?

Black holes came from old big stars that went supernova as it dies. Supernova causes the star to collapse into a black hole

Does a supernova have a collapsed star?

Yes, a supernova can occur when a massive star exhausts its nuclear fuel and collapses under its own gravity. This collapse can result in either a neutron star or a black hole, depending on the mass of the original star.


What is the adverb phrase of a black hole is the remains of a supermassive star after a supernova?

"after a supernova" is the adverb phrase in the sentence.
