If we produce a microscopic blackhole and that black hole remains in our dimension for a period of 5 minutes before detachment do you think it will pull in the surrounding particle accelerator? How far away will the gravity travel from the microscopic black hole?

If there is dust in the accelerator tunnel will the black hole pull in all the dust to increase its size?

By the way, they are attempting to make a black hole. At $8 Billion dollars to build it better do something.

Actually, it has been done in France, last year (2005)!
The black hole lasted a few nanoseconds before evaporating.
(Black holes evaporate through "quantum foam", and the smaller they are, the faster they evaporate).
If the scientists managed to keep the BH longer, then the consequences could have been disastrous! However, being so small, the event horizon was also very small, and nothing had the time to get close enough to be swallowed. If this happened, then the BH would have got bigger and bigger and... woops!

very good question, I would suspect that no, the accelerator or whatever machine will not get pulled in, the people designing it would have to account for that as an Optimization Problem in Calculus before they did such an experiment. The cost of equipment loss would cause the financial accountants behind the project to have a heart attack it the engineers didn't plan for the worst case.
And I don't know for sure what the distance of gravity travel would be, I'm sure there is a geometrical model that could estimate the distance, but it's got to be very difficult to figure out without experimenting first.

the subject-loose theory is that black holes are noticeably huge astrophysical bodies with vast gravitational fields. yet in certainty, a black hollow could have any mass. Take an orange and squeeze it to a sufficiently small length (some billionth of a billionth of a billionth of a meter for the time of) and you’d have a black hollow — with the mass of an orange. Physicists have found out that the collider’s proton-proton collisions might momentarily %. plenty potential into the variety of small quantity that noticeably tiny black holes might style — black holes even lighter than the only theoretically created with the aid of the orange, yet black holes although. Why might one difficulty that this could be a topic? because of the fact black holes have a popularity for rapacity. If a black hollow is produced under Geneva, might it swallow Switzerland and proceed on a starving rampage until the earth is wolfed? It’s a useful question with a distinctive answer: no. artwork that made Stephen Hawking well-known establishes that tiny black holes might crumble in a minuscule fraction of a 2d, long sufficient for physicists to attain some large reward of having produced them, yet short sufficient to circumvent their wreacking any havoc. nevertheless, some have frightened added that in step with threat Dr. Hawking became incorrect and such black holes don’t crumble. Are we prepared to wager the destiny of the planet on an untested perception? And that query takes us to the crux of the subject: the collisions on the large Hadron Collider have on no account in the past got here approximately under laboratory settings, yet they’ve been happening for the time of the universe — even here on the earth — for billions of years. Cosmic rays — debris wafting with the aid of area — continually rain down on the earth, the different planets and the wealth of stars scattered for the time of the galaxy, with energies a techniques in excess of those obtainable with the aid of the large Hadron Collider. and because those extra effective collisions haven’t led to astrophysical calamities, the collider’s somewhat tame collisions maximum veritably gained’t the two.

For small objects, gravity is nearly negligible. Note that an proton's gravitational attraction to electrons in an atom is barely influential. Of course, a black hole is much more massive, but not by enough orders to overcome any macroscopic distances.

I think yes because the gravity of a black hole is too strong. Have you watched Discovery Channel? End day? They created a black hole and the black hole grew bigger and bigger until it swallowed the Earth.

It would be difficult to create a black hole that would last for even a nanosecond because of Hawking radiation. It requires a hole of considerable size to have a significant lifetime.

it depends on the mass of the black hole, higher the mass then stronger the gravity
