The Black Hole?

Question

Is the black hole really a hole in space?

And where does all the stuff it sucks go to?I mean since it's a hole it has got to have a bottom and it has to have a limit on how much stuff it can contain right?So where does all that stuff it sucks go to?

And also is a black hole a 2 dimentional thing or a three dimentional thing? a hole only has 2 dimentions right? O_o

This black hole sh_t has really got me..

Answer 1

***********************************************
Its not a simple question and cannot receive a simple answer
if your thumbing people down because of that, then you NEVER be able to understand so quit asking about it.
if your NOT, then read on. Cheerio


yes. there almost seems to be one in EVERY galaxy we see. most of the time we tend to find more than one near the centers.

its not a hole. its an INFINITELY SMALL ball in space that has a HUGE amount of mass (like weight) and has a HUGE amount of gravity, sucking everything near it, into its center.-------- that's why they call it a HOLE

including light. the light cannot escape, so without us being able to see any light coming from it, we see NOTHING. -----

it also takes light on the outside of the BH (light that doesn't get caught in the hole that is) and bends it AROUND the BH so that we actually see whats BEHIND it.
that's why they say its BLACK

a hole does have 3 Ds
and if its a hole that truly exists in time then it also exists in the 4th D = aka TIME
so does a black hole, on the outside.
Inside, the concept of D's might break down
it could completely freeze the 4th D TIME due to everything not moving because it is so packed, even squishing D's 1 2 3 into a single D.
It might even mush even smaller D's (or should I actually say Higher Ds) or even create a lack of D's

we can't really tell because its INFINITELY small.
And because of that, the math we use to understand Ds in "Newtonian physics" (aka our world) falls apart........

"Quantum physics" (aka the super small world)

right now no one really understand the insides of black holes. When we understand quantum physics we could find out whats going on in those super small levels inside the black hole.


I believe applying quantum theory to the inside of a black hole might actually bend the thermodynamic laws into allowing a wormhole http://casa.colorado.edu/~ajsh/schww_gif.html to remain stable long enough for Ds, time, partials, matter, gravity to slip through to a white hole http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_hole AkA a big bang in another universe.

BTW "The Black Hole" was a movie. each BH found is given a name

long video on quantum theory / string theory / Big Bang / and Infite Universes.

I speculate that maybe the 11th or 10th D IS a black hole..... it might explain the strong gravity and the wormhole might actually be a slam of branes, and ......

not too mention Big Bangs and Black Holes both have singularities.

Answer 2

A black hole is hard to deal with because it is a place where our mathematical models don't work so well. Light and gravity behave very differently near black holes than when they are near ordinary objects.

The "hole" is called such because things seem to disappear into it - as though it is a hole in space. But that is due to the unfortunate choice of words for its name.

What really happens - if you believe Stephen Hawking - is that matter becomes so compressed inside the super-gravity object that the space between nuclei and electrons shrinks. Matter shrinks so extremely that assuming you could even see it, you wouldn't know what it was because its properties would be vastly different from its normal state. This state of compression is an unstable situation, but gravity inside the boundaries of this hole is so strong that the instability is not enough to make a difference. Except...

As to "how much stuff it can contain" - again we turn to the good Professor Hawking, who suggests that it is possible for a smaller black hole to reach its capacity, when it tries to compress a little more into the super-gravity core and it just can't. At that point, the hole becomes unstable and might even explode. This would be a huge event that might even explain some super-novas we can see with our telescopes. Some deep-space images have been found that look very much like exploded black holes are supposed to look, if you buy into the professor's theory.

(I am reminded of the Monty Python movie involving a "wafer-thin mint" and Monsieur Le Boeuf.)

The term "black hole" is misleading, so the question about the dimensions of the hole are actually not applicable. A black hole is three-dimensional, but from close enough it will LOOK flat. That's because it has gravity strong enough to even distort light. By the way, like the bumper sticker, "If you can see this, you are too close."

For that reason, thinking about a hole as having a bottom is perhaps a wrong image. The hole is most likely a sphere, which can have a CENTER - but not a bottom.

The black hole is a popular name. The corresponding description for astrophysics might be "gravitational singularity" - where "singularity" is a way of saying "reduced to an unmeasurably small point" in this case.

Answer 3

A black hole occurs when a star dies and collapses under its own weight. The black hole, while essentially a "hole" in space, even though that isnt the best desciption, does have extreme force that pulls everything into it.
There are a couple parts to a black hole.
The event horizon is the point of the black hole at that which nothing can escape. Once any object that is pulled in reaches this part, it is completley destroyed, atomized infact. (It is believed that light cannot even escape)

There is also the singularity, which is the point at the bottom of the black hole ( to put into simple terms). The structure of a black hole is similar to that of an icecream cone. The point at the bottom of the cone could be compared to the singualrity.
Get it? Or am I confusing you?

When any object is pulled apart into a million pieces when it reaches the event horizon it is just energy which never dissapears, but keeps dissapateing.

There is one type of black hole called a Kerr Hole that is believed to have another hole past the singularity, called a white hole, that has an opposite force that exerts every object from it. This white hole is believed to bring the object into either another time or even a parallel universe!
Sorry, getting too complicated.

The black hole is 3 demensional.

Answer 4

Simple explanation: you got it all wrong.

A black hole is an immensely dense chunk of mass in the middle of space, often formed from the nuclei of large stars. It's so dense that nothing can escape from its gravity, not even light. And since it draws all nearby light to it, it appears black, because of the lack of light.

The thing about it being in two dimensions is actually pretty curious... I would usually say it's in three dimensions because it's formed from the nucleus of a star (and that's three dimensional) but black holes are sometimes considered to be outside the laws of quantum physics, so I can't really say.
The stuff it sucks is added to the black hole, increasing its density further.

It only looks like a hole because it's a black circle against the sky's background. And it's perfectly black, since no light gets through.

Answer 5

google 'what is a black hole'.

A black hole is a massive star that has gravitationally collapsed into itself. It is small and ball shaped. 3 dimensional. It is not a hole. It was given the term black hole only because the strong gravity compared to it's small size does not allow light to escape. If you saw one, it would thus appear black.

It is true that for it's size it has a very strong gravity but only the same gravity it had when it was a star. It does not go around sucking things up.

Objects are able to revolve around black holes in the same way that they revolved around it when it was a star.

Since it is a ball shape and not a hole, when objects do get close enough to enter it's pull (called the event horizon), they simply are destroyed by the immense gravity and become a part of the black hole's mass.

Technically, a hole would also have 3 dimensions. But a black hole is ball shaped.

Answer 6

Some of the smartest people in the world are unsuccessfully trying to answer those questions right now, so I doubt you'll get your questions answered well here.

It's not really a hole so much as it is a single point in space, because it is 3D, not 2D. Have you heard of the "event horizon"? Basically, once something passes the "event horizon" of a black hole, it never comes back. If you could imagine the event horizon as a kind of membrane or wall, then it would appear as a three dimensional sphere floating in space, and the center of that sphere is the black hole itself.

Answer 7

Black Holes do no longer exist. No Probe or spacecraft has ever been close to one and no person on planet Earth has ever seen one up close. it is the main ridiculous concept huge-unfold and dumb sheeple even have faith what they have been advised through scientists and astronomers that Black Holes exists while relatively they in no way seen one and all they are doing is verifying their own version of consequences and records and shoving it in our faces and making choose us to have faith in this delusion referred to as black holes.

Answer 8

The topics of black holes become more popular these days.
Newtonian Mechanics physicist would have hard time to understand it.
Stephen Hawking is an expert in this field.

Answer 9

Well black holes are still a mystery.....according to the astrono mist,it is a dead star with strong gravitational pull that any thing can suck near them even light can suck down...only X-rays can escape....
