Question #36070

The Mass of our sun is 2x10^30 kg. Its radius is about 7x10^8 m. If our sun was to collapse into a black hole (all the mass is concentrated into a single point), what would be its event horizon? The event horizon is the edge at which light, which travels at 3x10^8 m/s can not escape.
