Black holes I
Lesson Outline
We finished the last few minutes of yesterday's documentary, during which Jared posed some excellent and very relevant questions. I then checked his understanding of the final evolutionary stages of stars (like our Sun and much more massive than our Sun) when reviewing his assignment from yesterday. We started to review some specific properties of black holes, mainly the fact that their sizes are linearly proportional to their masses. So, the more massive a black hole, the bigger it is, and vice versa.
Assignment
Calculate the size of the black hole the Sun would form IF it were to become a black hole; repeat for the Earth.

Lesson Comments
I was happy to see that Jared had made an effort with his assignment. He hadn't fully completed it, but when we reviewed it together, it was obvious that he is on the right track with comprehension of the subject. He again remained attentive throughout the class, and was full of inquisitive questions.
