Neutron stars are extremely dense objects formed from the remnants of supernova explosions. Many rotate very rapidly. Suppose the mass of a certain spherical neutron star is twice the mass of the Sun and its radius is 11.0 km. Determine the greatest possible angular speed it can have so that the matter at the surface of the star on its equator is just held in orbit by the gravitational force. rad/s

1) Neutron stars are extremely dense objects that are formed from the remnants of supernova explosions. Many rotate very rapidly. Suppose the mass of a certain spherical neutron star is twice the mass of the Sun and its radius is 14.0 km. Determine the greatest possible angular speed the neutron star can have so that the matter at its surface on the equator is just held in orbit by the gravitational force. (The mass of the Sun is 1.99 1030...

2) Densities We discussed White Dwarfs and Neutron stars, very dense objects compared to stars like our sun. On the other hand, we also discussed Red Giants which are much less dense than our sun. To realize just how dense, please compute the average densities (in kg/m) for a) the sun (Rsun=7 x 10 km, Msun= 2 x 1030 kg) b) when the sun becomes a red giant (R= 1AU, M=Msun). By what factor is a Red Giant less dense...

Constants Under some circumstances, a star can collapse into an extremely dense object made mostly of neutrons and called a neutron star. The density of a neutron star is roughly 10"4 times as great as that of ordinary solid matter. Suppose we represent the star as a uniform, solid, rigid sphere, both before and after the collapse. The star's initial radius was 9.0x105 km (comparable to our sun); its final radius is 18 km. Part A If the original star...

A neutron star is an extremely dense, rapidly spinning object that results from the collapse of a massive star at the end of its life. A neutron star with 2.3 times the Sun's mass has an essentially uniform density of 4.8× 10^17 kg/m^3. Part A What's its rotational inertia? Assume the star is a solid sphere. Express your answer with the appropriate units. Part B The neutron star's spin rate slowly decreases as a result of torque associated with magnetic...

Under some circumstances, a star can collapse into an extremely dense object made mostly of neutrons and called a neutron star. The density of a neutron star is roughly 1014 times as great as that of ordinary solid matter. Suppose we represent the star as a uniform, solid, rigid sphere, both before and after the collapse. The star's initial radius was 6.0×105 km (comparable to our sun); its final radius is 17 km. If the original star rotated once in...
