If you fall into a black hole, youd likely die as a result of tidal force. Explain

If you fell into a black hole you'd be crushed (well probably before entering it because of its force but falling into one is all hypothetical anyhow). Black holes are thought to be centers of extreme gravity. Therefore you'd be crushed.

Don't listen to Pissed Limey - tidal forces are forces that pull unequally on different sides of a body. That's what the moon does to the earth to cause the tides (its gravity pulls the side of the earth closest to it, causing the water to move).

The theory of tidal forces in a black hole is that the gravitational pull of the hole is so intense that if, say, you were going in feet first the pull at your feet would be stronger than at your waist so it would pull your feet faster than your waist, thus basically ripping you apart. If you were going in head first your head would get pulled off. Pretty, right?

Btw, you can't just get sucked into a black hole, you have to be heading towards it with a velocity for it to do anything besides keep you in perpetual orbit.

This is an answer I put on a question almost just like yours....

Black holes are called black holes because they are so massive that light can not even escape. When light is emitted from the black holes, it is looped right back to the surface, therefore, showing as being black. I once thought that black holes were in deed holes, but they are just spots in space where all the mass has collected and nothing can escape. Yes, if you were to get close enough to a black hole, you would not return....nor be alive to return. The atoms of your body would be pulled apart into separates pieces so strongly that you would in a sense vaporize. Kinda cool huh?

issues that pass close to a black hollow finally end up like a malicious program on a windshield. The be conscious hollow thus is deceptive. it is not a hollow interior the experience of what all of us understand right here in the international like a hollow interior the floor or a drain interior the sink with sides etc. A black hollow is a sphere like our Earth or the sunlight. like the sunlight, a black hollow is likewise a famous guy or woman who's gravity is so good that easy can not get away it is floor and shine out into area. in case you need to get close adequate to a black hollow you will see what would seem to be a dismal circle . it is the way it got here to be stated as a black hollow. whilst in comparison with and between each and every of the vibrant stars interior the heavens those unusual phenomenon are like a dismal hollow in area. understanding this you are able to now see that something that gets close to a black hollow does not pass everywhere yet to specific destruction

you would die because teh way a blacj hole is created by a dieing star. in the process of dieing the stars core become much heaveir, creating a lot of gravity, causing the star to implode. when it implodes the gravity remains and when an objecct goes into the black hole the gravityy is so great that the force of gravity on one end of an object is so much diferent than at the other end the object snaps in half then fourths and so on. by the time the object gets to the black hole it is already in very small particals

All the atoms in your body would be stretched out like a super-long, super-thin piece of spaghetti. That's just the best guess of people like Hawing who have spent literally decades doing research.

So, you wouldn't be vaporized, or sucked into another dimension, but just pulled apart, stretched out.

well duh........u'll be gone 4ever cuz tidal forces due to the curvature of spacetime will squash me and my spaceship in some directions and stretch them in another until I look like a piece of spaghetti. At the singularity all of present physics is mute as to what will happen, but I won't care. I'll be dead.

first of all, there's no chance we will fall into a blackhole because we are long gone after the black hole to suck our star system.. and the wuestion if, that will mean our body disintegrated and suck into it...

Tidal force? What are you smoking? It would be gravitational force. Tidal force is from the moon. And yes you would be dead so quick you wouldn't even notice.

U will be pulled into the black hole from all directions by its gravitational force and finally u will b torn into pieces and get sucked into it
