In 1999, scientists discovered a new class of black holes with masses 100 to 10,000 times the mass of our sun that occupy less space than our moon. Suppose that one of these black holes has a mass of 1×1021×102 suns and a radius equal to one-half the radius of our moon.
A)What is the density of the black hole in g/cm3g/cm3? The radius of our sun is 7.0×105km7.0×105km, and it has an average density of 1.4×103kg/m31.4×103kg/m3. The diameter of the moon is 2.16×1032.16×103 miles. 1km=0.6214mile1km=0.6214mile.?
Shown here is the Hawking equation that describes radiation from black holes:
2hG
Where:
S- entropy (J/K)
A- area of the event horizon (m2)
k-Boltzman's constant (m² kg/s² K)
|
c- speed of light
h- Planck's constant (m2 kg/s)
G- universal gravitation constant (m³/kg s²)
a) Using the equation and units of the other terms, find the units for c.
%3D
b) In this system of units, c = 2.99 x 10%. Convert this to miles/hour.
what is the mass of the black hole ? give your answer as a multiple of Ms where Ms is the solar mass, Ms = 2.0 * 10^(30)
express your answer as a multiple of the solar mass mass Ms.
