No. A black hole is an object (for lack of a better word) with such intense gravity that nothing, not even light can escape within a certain radius. The center of a black hole consists of an infinitely dense point called a singularity.

A black hole is not a tunnel in the traditional sense. It is a region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that not even light can escape, causing anything that gets too close to be pulled in. The idea of a black hole being a tunnel stems from the concept of a wormhole, which is a theoretical passage through space-time that could potentially connect distant points in the universe.

Is it possible for a wormhole to be sucked inside a black hole?

No - In fact, the hypothetical concept of a wormhole is the pairing of black hole with a white hole to create a "shortcut" (tube or tunnel) through SpaceTime. Also known as an Einstein-Rosen Bridge, a wormhole is a hypothetical topological feature of SpaceTime, which, if it were even possible, would be too unstable to be maintained. Therefore a wormhole would not be "suck up" by a black hole, because the wormhole is an extension of a black hole. Rather wormholes would independently destabilize and evaporate, allowing the black hole to continue on into existence.


Where will you go if you fall in to a black hole?

Into the black hole's singularity.


What would happen if a black hole swallows other black hole or if a Black hole swallow a white hole?

The answer is, if a black hole 'ate' another black hole, it would gain more mass, therefore it's event horizon(or area of influence) would increase. Once you cross the 'event horizon' it's a gravitational no return. Per the White Hole: It is found in theoretical science only. There has no proof of any white hole found (there has for black holes.) White hole ideas are not accepted by mainstream physicists, but a white hole may be the end product of the transmission of black hole matter in some part of the universe. If white holes exist the connection of a black hole to a white hole might actually be a wormhole or tunnel through 3 dimensional space. Black holes do have size and mass: if they did not have size, the difference in the size of the event horizon between black holes would not exist. The size of a black hole can be defined several ways - the gravitational force it generates (the mass), the physical size of the even horizon, or the size of an accretion disk (if there is one.) The problem most people have with the size of a black hole is that the very center of the black hole is a singularity: something that has no physical properties we can understand: it is so different that the word had to be made to describe it. In the sphere shells around the black hole are: the rest of the universe, "empty" space, matter and energy being bent (but not falling into the black hole), matter and energy falling into the black hole, (these 2 often show as an accretion disk), then the event horizon where the gravitational force is so strong now that even light can no longer escape, then the inner shell after the event horizon and this falls all the way down to the center, the singularity. Everything but the singularity has size, mass and is hot compared to the rest of hte universe (empty space again.) A black hole is an amazing thing but not a magical thing - it would probably be better if we used the term earler used - frozen star: one that no longer gives off heat.


What happens to a mass when it is swallowed by a black hole?

The object swallowed by the black hole is destroyed; its mass is added to the mass of the black hole.


What is the duration of The Black Hole?

The duration of The Black Hole is 1.63 hours.

How does black hole tunnel formed?

Black hole tunnel is formed by strong electromagnetic waves moving in a rythmic way.


Where does all the stuff from the black hole go?

A black hole isn't a tunnel to somewhere else. It just does to the center of the black hole, and is crushed into a little speck.


How are blackholes and wormholes related?

There is a theory that tells that when you fall in a black hole, you are not destroyed but you are "teleported" to a white hole. The wormhole is a inter-dimensional tunnel that connects a black hole to a white hole.

If you go thorugh a black hole where would you go?

Black holes aren't like a tunnel that leads somewhere. You just fall straight to the center and get crushed into a tiny speck with everything else that has fallen in.

Is it true that you can see the back of your head in a black hole?

Not "inside" a black hole, but outside the black hole at a distance one and a half times the radius of the event horizon there exists a photon sphere, where, to a distant observer, light might seem to be "in orbit" around the black hole. It would thus be conceivable in a theoretical sense that if you were standing in a ring-shaped tunnel around the black hole at this distance, you could see the back of yourself standing at a certain distance away down an apparently straight tunnel (and repeating copies of yourself at intervals converging at infinity, if you were able to see around yourself). The photons from the back of your head would have thus traveled in what to them would have been a straight line (or geodesic through curved space) to your eye.
