So is it true that if the Earth got lost in a big black hole, time would turn back? If so how far, and how fast?

If that were possible there would be a few areas that could cause some problems. The only thing is if the world as a whole did, everything would still be just as it is today. One would have to enter it only like a few at a time and see if that is possible. Then one could maybe go back in time and see how the world was at a given point. Then the issue of how far back, 5 minutes, or 2000 years? Then how you one get back to this time and place. Since the hole would be the force controlling how far one goes one could end up 300 years from now, or end up in the right time just wrong place. I mean talk about suck'en, being in the year 2007 but like 300 light years away from earth. I think the idea of Worm holes are interesting, but no next to nothing about them. =)

No,
A black hole is a trip to nowhere with no outlet and eventually it evaporates. Along the way anything sucked into a black hole is broken down into its tiniest pieces, stretched to a noodle and chopped up by the increasing gravity gradient.
Meanwhile if you do have a rotating black hole then you can travel back in time up until the point when the black hole started. Don't argue with me this is Steven Hawking's realm, I am only reporting the scientific fact. Of course you need a black hole rotating around a specific point, and you need to somehow survive the journey into that space without being sucked in through the black hole, destroyed by the radiation, or otherwise ruined. We can't do that and maybe we never will.
If anything goes into a black hole it is ground to a fine atomic powder and gone forever and ever, the end.

There is no going "into" a black hole. A black hole is a star like our Sun. Unlike our Sun a black hole has gravity that is so strong that it does not shine. Light cannot escape it. The word "hole" is misleading in this case. It's not a hole, it is a ball or sphere. Anything that gets near it get squashed up against it like a bug on a windshield.

If the earth got lost in a black hole it would be destroyed like everything else.

Time would not 'turn back'. The Earth and everything on it would be ripped into its constituent atoms by the tremendous gravitational tidal forces. The atoms closest to the singularity would experience a slower passage of time (from the point of view of a faraway observer).

NO,IT IS NOT TRUE.GOING BACK IN TIME IS ONLY IMAGINARY CONCEPT SINCE TIME IS THE MEASURE TOOL OF HUMAN BEING LIVING ON THIS EARTH.ONCE YOU LEAVE THE EARTH,THERE IS NO TIME IN THE UNIVERSE AND HENCE,QUESTION OF GOING BACK OR FORWARD DOES NOT ARISE.
