A new landowner has a triangular piece of flat land she wishes to fence. Starting at the west corner, she measures the first side to be 84 m long and the next to be 102 m. These sides are represented as displacement vectors A and B in the figure. She then calculates the length of the third side C. What is her result (in meters)?
Schwarzschild radius RS of a black hole is the maximum distance from the black hole’s center at which light cannot escape its gravitational field. The quantity RS (with dimensions of length) is dependent on the mass of the black hole M, the speed of light c, and the gravitational constant G. Based on the dimensions of these four parameters, predict an equation for the Schwarzschild radius. Hint: G has dimensions of [L3/MT2]
