Question 163811: The Schwarzschild radius describes the critical value to which the radius of a massive body must be reduced for it to become a black hole.
R = 2 G M / c 2
where
G = gravitational constant 6.7x10 -11
M= mass of the object
C = speed of light 3x10 8
The sun has M = 2x10 30 . What is the Schwarzschild radius for the sun? [Note its true radius is 700,000.]
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
G = gravitational constant
M= mass of the object
C = speed of light
Four variables. Given 3 of them, find the fourth. So plug in using scientific notation and grind it out
