A neutron star has a mass of 2.0 × 1030 kg (about the mass of our sun) and a radius of 5.0 × 103 m (about the height of a good-sized mountain). Suppose an object falls from rest near the surface of such a star. How fast would this object be moving after it had fallen a distance of 0.022 m? (Assume that the gravitational force is constant over the distance of the fall and that the star is not rotating.)

Neutron stars, such as the one at the center of the Crab Nebula, have about the same mass as our sun but a much smaller diameter.A)If you weigh 670 on the earth, what would be your weight on the surface of a neutron star that has the same mass as our sun and a diameter of 18.0 ?Take the mass of the sun to be = 1.99×1030 , the gravitational constant to be = 6.67×10-11 , and the acceleration due...
The mass of a certain neutron star is 9 × 1030 kg (4.5 solar masses) and its radius is 5500 m. What is the acceleration of gravity at the surface of this condensed, burned-out star? The value of the universal gravitational constant is 6.67 × 10−11 N · m2 /kg2 . Answer in units of m/s 2 .
Two neutron stars are separated by a distance of 1.0 1010 m. They each have a mass of 1.0 1030 kg and a radius of 1.0 105 m. They are initially at rest with respect to each other. As measured from that rest frame, how fast are they moving at the following positions? ( a) Their separation has decreased to one-half its initial value. m/s (b) They are about to collide. m/s
