A supernova is an enormous explosion that marks the death of a massive star. A black hole is a super-dense remnant of a supernova; an object around which gravity is so intense that even light cannot escape. -Science In Action 9 Textbook

Can ghosts be consumed by a black hole?

the gravitational field of a black hole is so vast that even light can't escape form it and in the case of a ghost, I think ghosts are kind of negative energy , so when a ghost goes near to the black hole then deadman will die again


What types of stars are thought to be the remnants of supernova explosions?

Supernova explosions are believed to generally result in a black hole, as the core of the star is collapsed into an unimaginably dense point mass. One can't really say that a black hole is any kind of star. Less powerful nova explosions probably result in pulsars or neutron stars.


What kind of telescope can you use to see a black hole?

You cannot directly observe a black hole with a telescope, as they do not emit light. However, you can use telescopes to detect the effects of a black hole on nearby matter, such as through X-ray emissions from accretion disks or the motion of stars in its gravitational field. Instruments like the Event Horizon Telescope, which is a network of radio telescopes, have successfully imaged the shadow of a black hole by capturing the emissions from the surrounding gas and dust.


What kind of energy waves do black holes emit?

Black holes emit a form of energy called Hawking radiation, which consists of particles being emitted from the black hole's event horizon. This radiation causes the black hole to slowly lose mass over time.


What kind of radiation does a black hole emit?

Black holes are believed to emit something called Hawking radiation.

Which kind of stars become black holes?

Only stars that are much more massive than our sun can become a black hole. When the star dies, it explodes (called a supernova) and then gravitational collapse helps it to form a black hole.


Can you give me an example for a tangible form to the unknown?

The black hole....and not Oprah kind, the space kind.

Which kind of black hole is the largest?

technically, we do not know whether black holes are real. theoretically, they are completely possible. scientist believe that they have seen on but are not sure. if real, the largest one originate from larger stars

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 kind of a star is a black hole?

A degenerate star or stellar remnant.


What kind of qualities would you associate with a black hole?

very hot


Is the Milky Way kind of like a black hole?

Not at all. The Milky Way is simply a galaxy: a collection of stuff (mostly stars, with some planets and even some black holes) orbiting around each other. A black hole is a star that collapsed upon itself at the end of its life, and has a very high gravitational pull close to its "surface" (the event horizon).


What kind of radiation does a black hole emit?

Black holes are believed to emit something called Hawking radiation.
