  The Schwarzschild radius of a black hole is that radial distance 88t: b jme4tz-oa) 9dyvgc*f afrom the center of a sphere within which not even light can escape. It was first discovered mathematically by Schwarzschild in 1916 after Einstein published his general relat4jt8-om:8)zvaa d*9 bt fgeycivity 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
