Expert Solution
Introduction:
  • Black holes are generated when supermassive stars die. The gravitational collapse is so large that nothing escapes.

 

  • When a star in a binary system becomes a blackhole it will slowly absorb the materials from its companion. These swirling materials will form an accretion disk around the black hole.
