# Make $\pi = 3$ again [closed]

The value of $$\pi$$, or the circumference divided by the diameter of a circle, is known with absurd precision, but I want it to be 3.

The circumference around a black hole outside the Schwarzschild radius is knowable. From the stationary frame outside of that radius, so is the diameter, but it is clear that we cannot traverse that diameter - in essence, it is infinite from the perspective of a traveler. In this instance, $$\pi = 0$$.

Can we do something like a line integral in GR to find the traversal diameter of a constant density sphere? If so, can we solve for the mass, $$M$$, and radius where $$\pi' = 3$$, $$r_{3}$$, in terms of normal things like density, $$\rho$$, and other universal constants? For the solution, assume that an instance of $$\pi$$ has the Euclidean value. The solution radius may be inside or outside the sphere.

In response to the comments, a 2D demonstration.

• $\pi$ is a dimensionless ratio of circumference to diameter. It is what it is, and it cannot be arbitrarily redefined. – David White Apr 13 at 16:03
