What it calculates

The “Black Hole Time Dilation” calculator computes Time at observer in min from 3 parameters: r (dist. from center, km), schwarzschild radius, km, time at distant observer.

A standard physics formula used in educational and engineering tasks.

Example calculation

With parameters r (dist. from center, km) = 100, Schwarzschild radius, km = 30, Time at distant observer = 60 the result is 50.2 min (τ = T·√(1 − r_s/r)).

How to use

  1. Enter r (dist. from center, km), schwarzschild radius, km and time at distant observer — each field above is adjustable with a slider.
  2. Time at observer (min) is calculated automatically as you type.
  3. Check the worked example below to see the formula applied to real numbers.
  4. Copy the result or bookmark this calculator.
