How do we get the values of Ricci Tensor & Ricci scalars?
Relevant Equations
Equations of Ricci tensor Ricci Scalar, Christoffel symbol
If we insert the values from (2.9), (2.10), (2.11) into (2.5) & (2.6) how can we get (2.13) & (2.14) ?? I need to see the calculations step by step.

Here is my own effort. Now, will you please tell me where I went wrong? What do I have to do?

Please read points 5 and 6: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/homework-help-guidelines-for-students-and-helpers.635513/

If you cannot be bothered to type things out in a legible format and explain what you are attempting to do in each step, then I certainly don’t feel any will to strain my eyes unnecessarily and spend triple the effort to try to help you comparef to what would be necessary if you followed the guidelines.

Let me also remind you of your own words:

Ok, this is the last time I posted image of calculation. For now, I will write the calculation.

Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...
The value of H equals ## 10^{3}## in natural units, According to : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units, ## t \sim 10^{-21} sec = 10^{21} Hz ##, and since ## \text{GeV} \sim 10^{24} \text{Hz } ##, ## GeV \sim 10^{24} \times 10^{-21} = 10^3 ## in natural units. So is this conversion correct? Also in the above formula, can I convert H to that natural units , since it’s a constant, while keeping k in Hz ?
