Question:

Which is stronger, magnetic force, or gravitatonal force.?

The reason I ask you of this is because I need to know if something could escape a Black Hole.This has been killing me for a long time.Hypothetically: If one falls into the event horizon with a significant amount of magnetic materials on, and someone on the outside of the event horizon tries to magnetically pull the the poor guy from the event horizon, would he be successfull in doing this.If so, then the popular belief that nothing can escape a Black Hole would be shattered. But this would only be true if magnetic forces are naturlally stronger than gravitational forces.

Answer:

Yes, gravity is the weakest of the forces but, indeed, your understanding of physics is incomplete at best. Because your first magnet is already inside the event horizon, by placing yourself just outside the event horizon next to that magnet with another magnet.guess what.that means you will actually pull yourself into the event horizon even faster, precisely because of the additional magnetic force. As for hovering above the event horizon so that you could not get sucked in, well, that requires breaking the known laws of physics to begin with and thus entering the realm of fiction, where you can make up anything you want. I think the part that you don't get is that both of your magnets are being affected by gravity.not just the one inside the event horizon. Yes, you would actually have the effect of slowing down the fall of the magnet inside the event horizon.but for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Magnetic. Gravity is the weakest force in the universe. The only way it overcomes magnetism, is that the opposing magentic forces will neutralize each other. Gravity has no opposing force. Gravity also decreases in inverse proportion to the square of distance from the center of gravity, while magetism decreases in inverse proportion to the cube of the distance. So magnetism drops off a lot faster. I have come up with a scenerio where something may escape from a black hole. Two black holes close to each other, at a point between them, they negate each other's event horizon. Or a neutron star close enough to the black hole to negate the event horizon. You may not need a large gravity to negate the event horizon, just enough to get time moving again. Note that black holes get larger as they gain mass, and they are also less dense. As the black hole gets larger, it's density decreases. Well, supposedly in theory. Some say that our universe is a giant black hole, and the only reason it is mostly space is because it is so large. As for space time inside the event horizon, nobody knows. We can only guess. Some say time stops, some say it goes backwards. Sub-atomic experiments have shows in some cases that time can go backwards, but the experiments I saw, were, like okay, a particle goes in the opposite direction than it should go, and that is what they call time going backwards
Here is the catch: The vector boson for magnetism is a photon. (i.e., the particle responsible for the force). Photons (whether they carry light or intervene in magnetism) have a speed limit (the speed of light) That speed limit is insufficient to overcome the stretching space-time separating an object inside the black-hole and the 'normal' space outside the event horizon. Therefore, no force can act between the magnet outside and the ferromagnetic material inside. If your rescuer's magnet is located outside the event horizon, it would not even detect the material on your suit. As far as it is concerned, your suit is no longer in the universe. If the black hole is a small one, the ferromagnetic material (along with the rest of you) would already had been reduced to its constituent quarks by spaghettification, before crossing the event horizon. What's left would not even be ferromagnetic anymore. Then, you, like Elvis, would have left the building. err, I mean universe. Thank you very much.
Easy pee zee go and ask you local police office / station / and ask them, or look up bike training schools in your phone directory.
