JordanA black hole can become smaller through a process called Hawking radiation, which occurs when particles and anti-particles are created near the event horizon. If one of the particles falls into the black hole while the other escapes, it causes the black hole to lose a small amount of mass, leading to its shrinkage over time.

If 2 black holes join together what hole will it become?
A more massive black hole.
How does a black hole get smaller?
A black hole doesn't get smaller in the traditional sense because its size is determined by its mass and gravitational pull. However, a black hole can lose mass through a process called Hawking radiation, where it emits energy over time and gradually reduces its mass.
Why will the Sun will eventually become a black hole?
it wont.
Will an object that is pulled into a black hole become more massive?
no
If a black hole's singularity has a volume that is infinitely small how does the core reach that volume wouldn't it have to keep collapsing forever?
The amount of gravity will only compact the material so far, then it has to stop. If the black hole had more gravitational pull, the infinitely small singularity will then become infinitely smaller.
