Black
hole is nothing but an object having very high gravitational force so
that even light having so much velocity does not succeed to escape from
it if once caught in side it. It has such dimensions that it is
concentrated at a point only with all its mass this is referred to as
singularity and due to so strong gravitational force at such a small
point makes this singularity such that time and space crushes together
and becomes indistinguishable i.e. looses their independent existence.
The gravitational force decreases with the increase in distance from it
which depends upon the mass of singularity. The influence of the
gravitational force can also be seen from the fact that the minimum
velocity required by an object to escape from its force of attraction
while passing from neighbourhood at minimum possible distance is equal
to velocity of light. And his minimum required distance makes its
"horizon" i.e. something like its surface through which its existence
may be defined in free space beyond the singularity point. And any
object that comes within this horizon gets trapped inside it and gets
lost forever within the instance gravitational force.
Formation of black holes
When
an object attains a certain high critical density producing such a high
gravitational force make it collapse within its and giving it
infinitely small point size. The time when a massive star is not capable
of producing energy in its core it leads to formation of the Stellar-
mass black hole i.e. it the energy generating in its core causes to
counter balance the gravitational force of its mass so in absence of
this mass it collapses at this time two situations are possible either
the outer layers of the star blast out and move into the free space of
to fall inside the formed black hole and strengthen it by making it more
massive. Still the formation of the massive black holes is not clearly
known, there are many estimations about its formation like maybe they
are formed due to collapse of the large gas clouds or it may be a result
of fusion of many small black hole to form a large one.
Black holes in universe
Many super massive blacks have been found in the nearby galaxies and many at far distances like quasars
in our own galaxy, i.e. Milky Way, a dozen or two stellar black holes
have been identified also some intermediate mass galaxies have been
found in Milky Way and also in nearby galaxies. The super massive black
holes are usually found at the centre of the most galaxies causing all
the other mass revolving around it and some stellar black holes anywhere
in the galaxy. In this way thousands of such black are there in the
galaxies presently known.
