Is the pull of gravity faster than the speed of light?
Definitely not gravity is 9.8m/sec and light is around 186000 miles per second or approx 300000 kilometers per second! Just read the q properly & now it becomes more complex. If light as has been muted is a particle then gravity can have an effect on it & then the black hole (so named because no light escapes it from the event horizon inwards) will have sufficient gravity to at least equal light speed. However we know that light is also in the frequency spectrum, we also know that light is deflected as it passes objects in space as astonomers use this to see behind stars. So perhaps there is sufficient gravity in a black hole to cause light to be trapped by continually curving around the black hole below the event horizon and yet the gravity slope at that point is not as fast as light speed. I don’t know but there is a little food for thought. By the time you get this you will probably have the answer that you seek.
