Black holes exert gravity despite absorbing light due to their immense mass and the curvature of spacetime they create. According to the Usenet Physics FAQ, the gravitational influence of a black hole extends beyond its event horizon, allowing objects outside to be affected by its gravitational pull. This phenomenon does not imply that anything can move faster than light; rather, it highlights the complex nature of gravity in the context of general relativity.
PREREQUISITESAstronomy enthusiasts, physics students, and anyone interested in understanding the fundamental principles of black holes and gravity.
This answer from the "black holes" section of the Usenet Physics FAQ addresses that question.sajithcv said:Hi friends,.
If black holes absorb light also, how can it exert any gravity outside a particular region? Or something can move faster than light?
