The Schwarzchild radius of a black hole is that radial distance from the center of a sphere within which not even light can escape. It was first discovered mathematically by Schwarzchild in 1916 after Einstein published his general relativity theory

It can be calculated from a star's mass M as: R = 2GM/c2. If the mass of star G is twice as much as the mass of star H, the average density of star G compared to star H will be A) twice as much. B) half as much. C) four times as much. D) one-fourth as much. E) eight times as much.
