Prove that the mass of the sun in gravitational unit is 1.47 kilometers.
Given G = 6.66 x 10-8 C. G. S. unit, c = 3 x 10¹0 cm/sec.
M = 1.99 x 1033 gm.
Also if in the case of earth v = 30 km/sec = 10-4 in terms of the velocity of light and
r = 1.5 x 108km, prove that the mass of the sun is 1.50 kilometers.
