the water vortex is an example. the mathematics imply that the water has infinite speed at the center, but this is avoided by there not being any water at the center

>so wouldnt this apply to black holes and their singularity as well?
Sure. Singularity is just a sign that our mathematical framework fails there.

>>8531583
Black holes might not actually exist

>>8531583
singularities are a meme.

No, no, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no.
No.
Nope.

That is simply wrong. Fluid mechanics does not work like that.

actually there's a ball of string in the middle

IF the universe always finds a way to avoid infinities why does the concept of infinity exist in the universe?

Congratulations! You've had the thought every single other physicist encountering the concept of black holes has had.

It is considered extremely likely that a complete theory of quantum gravity will not include black hole singularities, but we don't know what that would actually look like exactly, so we use the best model we have available until somebody finds a better one we can all agree on.

top kek
OP confirmed to be a finite set of elementary particles
