Light is not only attracted to a black hole, in fact, its attracted to you, to me and to everything made of matter in the universe. The problem is that light is affected by gravity, and the black holes have so much that light significantly change trajectory or the black holes absorb the photons

What is attracted to black holes?

the gravity from a black hole is so strong, its pulls in everything, and not even light can escape


What is Light and how is it attracted towards Black Hole?

Light is energy without a rest mass - but it does have a mass equivalent due to the energy it contains. A black hole warps the space around itself, thus causing "light rays" to be bent toward it.


How does light calculate in a black hole?

I am not aware of light calculating anything in a black hole.


Is a black hole faster than light?

No, a black hole is not faster than light.


What is the brilliant light coming from a black hole?

if there is light surrounding a black hole it is normally from material entering into the event horizon of the black hole.


Can you make light circular?

Only around a black hole. There is a sphere around every black hole where light orbits the black hole.


If light can be pulled into a black hole that suggests mass What is the weight per square meter?

light has no mass and therefore no weight. Light cannot be "pulled" into a black hole. The escape velocity from a black hole is greater than the speed of light, so no light can escape from a black hole. Spacetime in the vicinity of a black hole is greatly distorted by the hole's gravity, and light may travel along curved geodesics that intersect the black hole. But it is not pulled in.


Why are black holes swirly?

The "swirly" part of the black hole you are referring to is called the accretion disk which consists of the matter being attracted to the black hole.


A black hole attracts light- but to be attracted by something- the attracted subject needs mass too- so does light have mass?

Yes, Light has mass because E=hf= mc^2 thus mass m=hf/c^2=h/cw.


How does the escape velocity from a black hole compare with the speed of light?

The escape velocity of a black hole is equal or greater than the speed of light, so light cannot escape


Can light escape black holes?

No. The escape velocity of a black hole is greater than the speed of light.


Can the speed of light escape a black hole?

No, the speed of light cannot escape a black hole because the gravitational pull of a black hole is so strong that even light cannot escape it.
