This is usually considered to be the event horizon.

However a spinning black hole spinning fast enough or a charged black hole with high enough charge might not have an event horizon, leaving just what is called a naked singularity.

its called the event horizon


What is the unescapeable boundary of a black hole known as?

Event Horizon.


What is the name for the boundary around a black hole beyond which events cannot affect the observer?

The "boundary" you're probably thinking of is called the event horizon. Past this point, the escape velocity of the black hole exceeds the speed of light, meaning nothing, including light, can escape it.


What is the escape velocity at the boundary of a black hole?

By definition, the event horizon is a boundary of a black hole at which escape velocity reaches "c", the speed of light. Hence, the event horizon defines a boundary, within which, events can't affect an outside observer; neither light nor matter can escape.


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.


What horizon is formed first?

The apparent horizon is formed first in the evolution of a black hole. It represents the point from which no light can escape, defining the boundary of a black hole's event horizon.


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.


What is the OUTSIDE of the black hole called?

The very outside part of a black hole when "feeding" is called the Accretion Disc. when a black hole is not devouring a star the outside part becomes the Event Horizon.


Boundary near the center of a Black hole where no electronic radiation can escape is called the?

It's called the Event Horizon.


Why can't light escape a black hole?

Light cannot escape a black hole because the gravitational pull of a black hole is so strong that it traps everything, including light, within its boundary called the event horizon. This means that once light crosses the event horizon, it cannot escape the black hole's intense gravitational force.


What is the area beyond a black hole where black hole has stopped expanding and matter will no longer be pulled in?

There is no definite boundary for matter not being pulled toward a black hole. At large distances the effects of a black hole's gravity are not different from that of a different object of the same mass. How far out a black hole's gravity is dominant depends on that black hole's mass and its proximity to other massive objects.


Gravity in a black hole is?

The gravity in a black hole is so strong that not even light can escape. For all intents and purposes it can be considered infinite.
