Can a black hole consume another black hole?
Yes, please. Can you tell me how two black holes merge?
Sure! When two black holes are close enough to each other, they will eventually begin to orbit around each other. Over time, this orbit will cause ripples in spacetime that radiate outwards. These ripples are called gravitational waves, and they can carry away energy from the system. As the black holes lose energy, they will eventually merge into one larger black hole.
