Q: What is the radius of a black hole with a mass equal to the Sun? (M = 1.99 x 10^(30) kg) 2 * 6.67 x 10^(-11) N*m^2/kg^2 * 1.99 x 10^(30) kg R = sqrt( ---------------------------------------------------- ) [ 3 x 10^(8) m/s ]^2 = 2950 meters ~= 3 km Q: What is the radius of a black hole with a mass equal to the Earth? (M = 5.98 x 10^(24) kg) 2 * 6.67 x 10^(-11) N*m^2/kg^2 * 5.98 x 10^(24) kg R = sqrt( ---------------------------------------------------- ) [ 3 x 10^(8) m/s ]^2 = 0.0089 meters ~= 9 mm
