Observations show that a celestial body traveling at 1.2 3

Chapter 13, Problem 13.91

(choose chapter or problem)

Observations show that a celestial body traveling at \(1.2 \times 10^{6} \ mi/h\) appears to be describing about point B a circle of radius equal to 60 light years. Point B is suspected of being a very dense concentration of mass called a black hole. Determine the ratio \(M_{B}/M_{S}\) of the mass at B to the mass of the sun. (The mass of the sun is 330,000 times the mass of the earth, and a light year is the distance traveled by light in 1 year at 186,300 mi/s.)
