Thanks for all the answers

this is exactly what I was looking for thank you!

Thank you for all the answers, I was very curious and love all of the explanations you guys gave, really made me have to think

Thank you for the response and this way seems much much easier

(Disclaimer I am a very curious 14 year old so bare with me) I found an article saying glass with 2.5 g/cc would have to be 14 light minutes(Lm) in radius to create a black hole, I am now trying to find out how many Earths' that would have to be in a row to create a black hole. I just need help with the math. Would this mean 1 g/cc would have to be 23.333 light minutes(Lm) large to create a black hole considering 14Lm + (14Lm ÷ 1.5g/cc) = 23.333Lm/g/cc (Lm being Light Minutes)? 1 g/cc density would take 23.333Lm to make a black hole ? Considering this that would mean Earth (Which all together has a density of 5.513 g/cc) would be 5.513 g/cc 5.513 g/cc x 23.333Lm = apx 128.63666Lm (Light minutes) or (7.562067334e+14 Miles) wide to create a black hole with Earths' mass If this is correct thus far what would be my next step considering Earth has a Diameter of 7,917.5 Miles while also taking in the whole volume (Width, Length, and Height) Keep in mind I am 14 so if I am doing this all wrong im sorry! Thanks and all I would like is positive reinforcement please!
