Black Holes are cores of dying stars that have gravitationally collapsed even more then a neutron
star (a neutron star is somewhat stable because of the pressure created by the compressed
neutrons, which will counter the force of gravity). A black hole is basically infinitely small, but
its radius is usually defined as the radius from which light can escape. Even for very massive
stars this radius is small (we are talking a few hundred meters here compare to the 700,000km of
your Sun). If you would fall towards such an object, your biggest problem would be that you
need to deal with tidal forces. Explain why these tidal forces will cause all objects to be ripped
into tiny pieces.
Solution
The tidal forces will cause all objects to be ripped into tiny pieces. How ??
Let's take an example - suppose we are falling toward the black hole with our legs towards the
center. At the start, we will feel equal gravitational force all over the body. As we approach the
center of black hole, the gravitational force on the legs will intensify and the gravitational force
on the head will not be that high, this will generate a tidal gravitational force. These tidal forces
get more and more intense as we get closer to the center, and eventually they will rip us apart.
This is same as the moon tugs harder at the side of the Earth closest to it, causing the tide to rise
up towards it, the black hole pulls harder at our feet than it does on our head.
Same will happen with any object falling into the black hole.
