Answer:

e.None

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solve this problem is writing the radius of a one solar mass black hole in scientific notation, that is, the decimal part must be between 1 and 9.

I am going to do this step by step


2950 = 295*10^(1) = 29.5*10^(2) = 2.95*10^(3)


2.95*10^(3) is the scientific notation of 2950m. This distance has a lower exponent of 10 than any of those distances in a,b,c,d. So, the correct answer is letter e.
