Solution Steps

Step 1: Understanding the Concept of Escape Velocity

Escape velocity is the minimum speed needed for an object to break free from the gravitational attraction of a massive body without further propulsion. For a star, if the escape velocity exceeds the speed of light, it means that not even light can escape its gravitational pull.

Step 2: Identifying the Type of Star

When a star collapses to the point where its escape velocity exceeds the speed of light, it forms a black hole. This is because the gravitational pull becomes so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape from it.

Final Answer

\(\boxed{\text{black hole}}\)
