What happens when you fall into a black hole?

Answer 1

Imagine you could enter in a black hole while I wait for you from a reasonable distance. You’d be painfully stretched, since gravity pull is so huge that there is a significant difference along your body, from head to toes. But let's forget that.

There´s a limit surrounding it. As you know, it’s called Horizon. If you cross it, I shouldn’t see you, because light can’t escape. When you throw a ball on Earth, it falls shortly after. Throw it harder and it will escape earth attraction and wander. But in a black hole nothing can leave because its attraction is higher than the highest velocity matter can achieve.
While you are about to enter, I see you. And then your image begins to shift into the red side of the spectrum, and then into longer waves. The last signal I could receive from you has now turned radio waves. But you are not there. I’m receiving ghost images. You are kaput, gone a long long time ago. In fact, I never see you crossing the threshold, since time is so bent, so “slow”, that it takes almost forever to reach me.

While inside, you managed to see my… (eh, spaceship?), ‘cause light, same as you, does enter the black hole. In those few seconds you had of life, you noticed that time became space; and space, time. What you used to measure with a ruler on earth, you would do it with a clock there. As well as you can´t stop time on earth (it flows into the future), the same happens in a black hole, but with distances. You move into a singularity, a point in the center, and can´t stop moving. No matter what you do, you move in that direction.

According to Stephen Hawkings newest theory, from the viewpoint of the person at the Swartzchild radius or event horizon, nothing appears to be wrong (if he lived through the tidal stretching like you could do around a galaxy center size black hole). But to us it would appear that he was smeared around the event horizon.

All this means is that to the person falling into the black hole nothing seems to be wrong except that it seems to take forever to fall into the black hole. But to us he appears to be just a smear stretched out along where matter and light fall into the black hole.

Answer 3

Hi It depends on the size of the object. Tidal forces would cause a strong stretching force on large objects, causing them to lengthen (at least for a relatively small black hole). The larger the hole the smaller the tidal force, for reasons I can not explain now in a short answer.

Answer 4

you will die. Remember that gravity increases with decrased distance. because of the immense gravitational feild of the black hole, and the difference in distance between the two ends of your body, the pull at your feet would be so much stronger, unimaginably so, than the pull on yur head, you would be ripped into a long chain of molecules by the gravity of the black hole.

Answer 5

i be attentive to you're speaking theoretically, yet an impact with yet another super physique able to changing the earth's orbit and sending it in direction of a supermassive black hollow, could better than probable be adequate to end maximum existence on earth. If by some ability we've been to stay as much as the component of turning into trapped interior of a black hollow's gravity field i could might desire to anticipate that the layers of Earth could start to peel off long before the impact definitely got here approximately. considering that maximum individuals stay on the outer layer we'd die from the freezing chilly simply by fact the ambience dissipated and all easy could be diverted from the floor. only my techniques.

Answer 6

If you mean black holes in astronomy, then you will sucked in, since they are created by an inward explosion of a star and suck every matter that is in their path. But , i really don't think you will be swallen by a black hole:))

Answer 7

what happens when you get sucked into a black hole is a phenomenon called ''spaghettification'' which in simple terms like the name applies, you get pulled like a piece of spaghetti, for more information click on this link

Answer 8

Within a ship or without? Theoretically if it can rip planets apart, hold light from escaping... than it wouldn't be a pretty sight for us.

Answer 9

Rosie O'Donnelle will yell at you to get out of her pants, but you can't because gravity of her belly is quadrillion times that of Earth's.

Answer 10

You go out of existence for eternity!
