For the given black hole, its Schwarzschild radius is

Rs=2.94814×109 m

perihelion =0.3941 AU

aphelion = 0.4927 AU

 

The semi-major is calculated using the formula

a = (0.492+0.3942)/2

a = 0.443 AU

 

 

 

 

 

Black Holes Han Solo and Chewie fly the Millenium Falcon (mass of 100,000 kg) into an orbit around a 1 million solar mass black hole at a periastron (closest distance) distance of 20 Schwarzschild radii (i.e., 20xR5). They have an apastron distance of 25xRg. What are the periastron and apastron distances in AU? What is the semi-major axis in AU? What is the period of the orbit in years? What is the eccentricity of the orbit? What is the Millenium Falcon's velocity at periastron?
