The condition for a uniform spherical mass m of radius r to be a black hole is [ $G$ = gravitational constant and $g$ = acceleration due to gravity]
A
${(2Gm/r)^{1/2}} \le c$
B
${(2Gm/r)^{1/2}} = c$
C
${(2Gm/r)^{1/2}} \ge c$
D
${(gm/r)^{1/2}} \ge c$
Solution
(c) The criterion for a star to be black hole is
$\frac{{GM}}{{{c^2}R}} \ge \frac{1}{2}$ or, $\sqrt {\frac{{2GM}}{R}} \ge c$.
