The gravitational (or Schwarzschild) radius of a black hole is relatively small for a couple salient reasons - first, because of the large speed of light, the fastest speed at which things can travel; and secondly, (despite its dominance at large distances), the relative weakness of the gravitational force. If gravity were a more powerful force the gravitational radius of a black hole would be larger; if the speed of light were greater, the radius would be smaller. Another way of stating this would be to consider the radius of the black hole being directly proportional to its mass, but inversely proportional to the square of the speed of light, a large number indeed. If the Earth's mass formed a black hole, it would only be about the size of a marble.

Its impossible for the sun to turn into a blackhole because?
It's too small
Application of the law of gravitation to explain the formation of black holes?
Specifically for a black hole the range of gravitational influence is calculated by the "Shwarzchild Radius" and surprisingly the radius is quite small for even the biggest blackhole, If a blackhole had the mass of the earth, then the Shwarzchild radius would only be a centimeter! Meaning you would have to come with in a centimeter of the blackhole to get sucked in.
Why is a blackhole called so?
Bcoz the hole is black in color.
How many syllables are in blackhole?
there is two syllables in thw word blackhole
Does the milky way have a blackhole?
The Milky Way contains a supergiant blackhole at its center.
What is the schwarzschild radius of earth?
The schwarzschild radius of the Earth is about 8.7 x 10 to the negative 3m. The schwarzschild radius is the radis of a sphere that is around a non-rotating blackhole. You find the Rs, or radis, by multiplying the gravitational constant(G), the mass(M), and two. You divide this by the speed of light(c) squared.
Which of these objects has the largest radius 1. a 1.2 solar mass white dwarf 2. a 1.5 solar mass neutron star 3. a 3 solar mass blackhole?
Answer is 1
Does francium have a small radius?
The covalent atomic radius of francium is 260 pm and this value is not small.
Is CERN a blackhole?
no
Have you seen a Blackhole pull something into it?
You cannot see a Blackhole with the naked eye and they're hard to detect anyway. No one would see a Blackhole pull anything into its center.
Who was the first to see a blackhole?
you can't really see a black hole (as the name suggests). we assume that it's there by looking at how light and planets are effected by its gravity. so if we see light bending then there is a possibility that there is a blackhole.
What is the Radius of a small circle?
radius of any circle = diameter/2
