Abstract

In this paper we investigate the relationship between the mass and density of a black hole. It leads to the interesting conclusion that a black hole may be less dense than water. By taking this further we find that at certain points a star is no longer tidally disrupted and is instead swallowed whole as the black hole
continuous to grow in size.
