Well for the Earth, its 9 mm

For the Sun, its about 3 km

For a 3 solar mass black hole, its close to 9 km

It will not be a black hole if it has only 3 solar masses

The Schwarzschild radius of a black hole is found from its mass by

R = 2 G M / c^2

R = (2) (6.67E-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2) (3) (1.99E+30 kg) / (3E+8 m s^-1)^2

R = 8849 meters

5,338.4 meters

rs = 2 * G * M / C^2

'rs' Schwarzschild radius
'G' gravitational constant (6.673^minus 11)
'M' mass
'C^2' speed of light squared
