I'm a teacher, but not in science. I purposely am not using the term "black hole" because it is too restrictive for the purpose of this question. As I have not taken astronomy or physics, and have no experts to talk with, I have qualms abour revealing my stupidity and ignorance on the subject, but I really want to learn, and answering some of these questions, or explaining why they might be ludricous, would satisfy a raging curiosity in my mind. (I am studying basic physics on my own, but have not yet made much progress.) Please don't dismiss me or patronize me.
1. Is there a difference in the force of gravity in the polar regions and the equatorial regions of any rotating body in space that bulges at the equator as a result of rapid rotation?
2. Is this difference, if it exists, more extreme as the object evolves to being more like a torus than a sphere?
3. Could these factors lead to a degree of chaos or "weather" between the core and the event horizon?
4. Help?

4. If there are particles and waves such as described, are the subject to a corialus force, or the flow of waves and/or particles away from the equator and toward the polar regions, cycles and "storms" ?
5. As the stuff surrounding the core evolves more and more into a torus, is the an acceleration of (a) the gravitational differential between the poles and the equator, (b) the chaos and uncertainty of outcomes in the "weather patterns", (c) the intensity of the force of the "winds" converging on the poles?
(6) Could this intensification lead ultimately to the escape of massive amounts of matter and energy from the rotating object, emanating from both poles?
Could such a process ultimately lead to the "wringing out" of the energy-overloaded object, so that the particles/waves/whatever at some catastrophic point squirt out at both ends in a torrent, dissolving the rotating object and sending very powerful, destructive waves of energy into space?
