  The Schwarzschild radius of a black hole is that radial distance from th4 mu(5)zg* r poi9fldee center of a sphere within which not even light can escape. It was first discovered mathematu)io 9gle* m5r pzf(4dically by Schwarzschild in 1916 after Einstein published his general relativity theory. It can be calculated from a star's mass M as: $R = 2GM/c^2$. Take the radius of both stars A and B as the Schwarzschild radius. If the mass of star A is twice as much as the mass of star B, the average density of star A, compared to star B will be
