From Einstein’s special theory of relativity, we know that the speed of light, c = (3 x 108 ms−1 ) cannot be exceeded by any moving particle. Thus c is the upper limit to the projectile escape speed.
i.e., ve = \(\big(\frac{2GM}{R}\big)^{\frac{1}{2}}\leq e\)
if M = Me
then R = \(\frac{2GMe}{c^2}\)
= \(\frac{2\times(6.67\times10^{-11})\times(6\times10^{24)}}{(3\times10^8)^2}\)
= 8.9 x 10-3 m = 1 cm
It means the earth can act as a black hole. If it shrinks to a very small size of nearby 1 cm radius, which is the size of a berry.
