How Does Gravity Influence Black Hole Formation?

šŸ’” The Answer

  • When a massive star exhausts its fuel, gravity overwhelms internal pressure, causing collapse.
  • The core compresses into an infinitely dense singularity, surrounded by an event horizon.
  • A black hole's gravity is so intense that not even light can escape.
  • Stellar-mass black holes form from stars at least 20 times the mass of our Sun.
