Calculate the density of a neutron star with a radius 1.34 x 104 m, assuming the mass is distributed uniformly. Treat the neutron star as a giant nucleus and consider the mass of a nucleon 1.675 x 10-27 kg.
Your answer should be in the form of N x 1017 kg/m3. Enter only the number N with two decimal places, do not enter unit.

One of the end stages of stellar life is a neutron star, where matter collapses and electrons combine with protons to form neutrons. Some liken neutron stars to a single gigantic nucleus. Calculate the radius in meters of a neutron star with a mass 2.96 x 1030 kg, treating it as a giant nucleus. Consider the mass of a nucleon 1.675 x 10-27 kg. Your answer should be in the form of N x 104 years. Enter only the number...

A neutron of mass 1.67 x 10-27 kg, moving with velocity 2.0 x 104 m/s, makes a head-on collision with a boron nucleus of mass 17.0 x 10-27 kg. The boron nucleus is initially at rest. If the collision is elastic, what fraction of the original kinetic energy of the neutron is transferred to the boron nucleus?

A neutron star is a star that remains after a supernova, having a large enough density that the it is comprised of mostly neutrons and few protons. A pulsar is a neutron star that spins, radiating electromagnetic energy. We detect this energy as radio waves, noticing that they pulse at a rate of 1 kHz (1000 Hz). Let's assume that this rate corresponds to the rotations per second of the star (1000 rotations per second). Any solid sphere has a...

Neutron stars consist only of neutrons and have unbelievably high densities. A typical mass and radius for a neutron star might be 8.7 x 1028 kg and 1.8 x 103 m. (a) Find the density of such a star. (b) If a dime (V = 2.0 x 10-7 m3) were made from this material, how much would it weight (in pounds)?

Neutron stars are created when giant stars die in supernovas and their remaining cores collapse to a state of immense density where protons and electrons combine to form neutrons. A neutron star is ~1.4 times as massive as the sun and has radius of only ~10 km. For this neutron star compute its escape velocity. What percentage of the speed of light does this correspond to? (Assume for the mass of the sun, M = 1.989 x 10^30 kg).
