"Singularity" is a term from Math. It means something that you can get as close to
as you want, but you can never get exactly there, because when you're exactly
there, something about it becomes either infinite or zero.

If present hypotheses explaining black holes are correct, then:

-- A black hole has a large mass but occupies only a point.

-- Its radius, diameter, length, width, height, area, and volume are all zero.

-- Since it has mass but no volume, its mass is finite, but its density is infinite.

-- Since the black hole exists only at a single point, any other mass can be any distance
from it, no matter how small, just as long as the distance isn't zero. And since the mutual
force of gravitational attraction between two masses is inversely proportional to the
distance between them, the force between a black hole and any other mass can be
anything imaginable, no matter how large, and it can get as close to infinite force
as you want it to.

Is a black hole known as a singularity?

No, they are not the same. A singularity would be inside a black hole.


What is present inside a black hole?

It is impossible to know what is present inside a black hole, though it is theorized that a singularity is located at its centre.


Is a black hole know as a singularity?

No the singularity is at the core of the black hole.


What is the radius of a black hole singularity?

If it had a radius, then it wouldn't be a singularity. The event-horizon surrounding a black hole has a radius, which depends on the black hole's mass. But the singularity itself has no radius.


What happens to time inside a black hole?

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.


The center of a black hole is called a?

The center of a black hole, a locus of infinite density where matter is compressed into zero volume, is called a 'singularity.'


What is in the middle of a black hole?

In the middle of a black hole, there is a single point of matter called a singularity. This is where space-time actually stops and nothing is beyond this point. Anything and everything that gets sucked up in the black hole goes here.


Where will you go if you fall in to a black hole?

Into the black hole's singularity.


What is at the center of the black hole?

A singularity is at the centre of a black hole.


What is the singularity inside a black hole?

All black holes have a singularity at their center. A singularity in a black hole is a location where the density of matter is infinite, at such a location physics equations give incomprehensible nonsense answers. (singularities occur in pure mathematics also, where for various reasons usable answers cannot be obtained from the equations: e.g. singular matrices)in Static and Charged black holes this singularity is an infinitesimal point.in Rotating black holes this singularity is a rapidly spinning ring.


Can you walk inside a black hole?

No, it is not possible to walk inside a black hole. Black holes have a gravitational pull so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape beyond a certain point called the event horizon. Attempting to walk inside a black hole would result in being pulled towards the singularity at its center.


What can you find inside a black hole?

In actuality nothing is known about the insides of a black hole. But in theory, at the center of a black hole is a region of infinite density and very strong gravitational pull that it breaks down any established laws of physics. this region is called a singularity.
