Bandwidth distribution in a hub

suppose 10 users are connected to a hub running at 10Mbps. Then is this bandwidth divided among the 10 users or is available to each of the users as a whole?

    NO it will not be divided, and you can't control it. Hub is simply send the arriving package to all port, which ever port had requested it will receive it.
    Are you using HUB or switch?

    Bandwidth gets divided. That is why after a certain number of hosts connections , number of collisions increase and system performance degrades.

    quoting from the link provided my anoop

    "Additionally, a 10/100Mbps hub must share its #-Link-Snipped-# with each and every one of its ports. So when only one PC is broadcasting, it will have access to the maximum available bandwidth. If, however, multiple PCs are broadcasting, then that bandwidth will need to be divided among all of those systems, which will degrade performance."
