A uniform, spherical cloud of interstellar gas has mass 2.2×1030 kg and radius 9.0×1012 m , and is rotating with period 1.5×106 years.
If the cloud collapses to form a star 7.4×108 m in radius, what will be the star's rotation period?
Homework Answers
From the conservation of angular momentum,
We Write
I1W1 = I2*W2
I sphere = 2/5 *M*R^2
So,
Wf = (Ri/Rf)^2 *Wi
Wf = (7.4*10^8/ 9*10^12)^2 * 1.5*10^6
Wf = 0.01014 Years
Star's Rotation Period = 0.01014 Years = 3.701 days

Stars form from the gravitational collapse of clouds of interstellar ("between the stars") gas. To simplify the situation, assume that a single star forms from a uniform, spherical cloud of gas of mass 2.0 x 1030 kg and radius 1.0 x 1013 m. 2. Before it begins to collapse, the cloud is rotating with a period of 1.4 million years. What is the angular speed of the cloud? (2.26 × 10-14 rev/s) The cloud eventually collapses to form a star...
