What are the other possibilities of what happens in a black hole?

Question

I mean, I've read other Q&As, and a lot have said that things simply get crushed into tiny atoms in a black hole, but I've heard theories that there's a parallel dimension or something in a black hole. That could be highly unlikely, but is there really a definite answer to what's in a black hole? I thought there wasnt, so I'm basically open to any ideas.

Answer 1

Black holes as mentioned above are a singularity. Nobody really knows what happens once you cross the event horizon ( the edge of the black hole). These are very strange events in that they pull everything including light towards them, which contradicts Newtons second law with mass being proportional inversely proportional to mass ( as light has no mass) and Einstein's theory of relativity and the conservation of mass and energy. All theory we have breaks down when we encounter black holes.

An interesting theory is that black holes are a link to another universe, matter passing through a black hole and appearing through a white hole in another universe. This theory has the assumption that there is more than one universe and that they are all linked. Stephen Hawking's "A Brief history of time" gives many interesting insights.

He has recently changed some of his views however with a new theory that a Universe is created by the bumping of one universe into another with black holes becoming the remanents of the reaction, and thus there is no begining or end to time. He is publishing his ideas soon. In short however nobody really knows what happens in a black hole.

Answer 2

You're partially correct, parallel universes cannot exist within the black hole.
However, there is some conjecture that black holes, if they are spinning,as most might be, can bend space-time such that they can lead to an opposite negative black hole (a white hole) in a parallel universe, via a "tunnel" in space-time, where a great repulsive force, rather than attractive force of gravity, is applied, and forces you out the other end. You may not be in very good condition, however, due to the massive tidal forces near both the black and white holes, but you might get to another universe.

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

i've never been to a black hole...but promise i would tell you about what's really inside that hole when i could go there in the near future! hahaha

if a black hole passes through a cloud of interstellar matter, or is close to another "normal" star, the black hole can accrete matter into itself. As the matter falls or is pulled towards the black hole, it gains kinetic energy, heats up and is squeezed by tidal forces. The heating ionizes the atoms, and when the atoms reach a few million degrees Kelvin, they emit X-rays. The X-rays are sent off into space before the matter crosses the Schwarzschild radius and crashes into the singularity. Thus we can see this X-ray emission.

Answer 4

Here is the problem with a black hole - its a singularity. What this means is that you cannot trace the laws of physics across its event horizon. Ever. Today's physics can't do it. String theory can't do it.

So you cannot know even what laws of physics apply inside a black hole. Which leads people to speculate wildly.

Of course, the most reasonable thing is to assume the laws of physics don't change a lot. Why would they. In which case, inside a black hole matter is just squished down to it raw components.

Answer 5

There is no definite answer to what's in a black hole.

Since the string theory predicts the existence of up to 26 dimensions, scientists are trying to discover what some of these dimensions may be, aside from lenth, width, depth, and duration. Black holes, due to their intense gravitational pull (impossible by Newtonian mechanics), it seems logical to say that black holes may contain other dimensions. It is also theorized that for this reason, black holes may contain the answer to gravity, the only one of the 4 fundamental interactions that is still not understood.

You can boost your understanding of black holes by studing these:
- photo-doppler effect
- event horizons
- expansion of the universe
- superstring theory

and of course, discrete mathematics - since we still have not proven black holes (our theory of them does correspond to data), this sort of physics is based more on mathematics than physical phenomena.

Answer 6

I think that its like a whirlpool in the water. If you went in you would be battered against the rocks. Same way the gravity would be immense. If you withstood that you would emerge elsewhere or just on the other side. In Star Trek they go through on and let loose a photon torpedo which explodes and cancels out the gravity and they just come out a little away from where they were, in the same space. Just like in the water , you turn up a little away that's all.

Answer 7

Yes when you enter into a blackhole you can see two more holes one to take you to the future and on the opposite side the one to take u to the past. When u exit out through the one taking u to past u must be careful not to walk too far otherwise u enter ur childhood,then its difficult to return to the present as then u would require another black hole to be found and then enter the 1st hole inside as i mentined early from the 2 choices-one which would take u to the future that is ur today's present.I Had a nice expeience.No one beleives me . There are a few black holes probably one which I went through was in the pyramid chamber in Egypt.

Answer 8

No one knows exactly what is inside the black hole or what will happend when objects fly past or get into the black hole. Perhaps inside the black hole there is nothing?? Perhaps only the outer layer will cause objects to burn up and it is safe inside. No body knows...........

Answer 9

Also read Steven Hawking's 'History of the Universe', a realy good book that helps anyone understand physics and astrophysics.

Answer 10

i dont know, but i would love to find out - i keep trying but i think it is because i am Caucasian
