The Crab Nebula One of the most studied objects in the night sky is the Crab nebula, the remains of a supernova explosion observed by the Chinese in 1054. In 1968 it was discovered that a pulsar−a rapidly rotating neutron star that emits a pulse of radio waves with the revolution−lies near the center of the Crab nebula. The period of this pulsar is 33 ms. What is the angular speed (in rad/s) of the Crab nebula pulsar?

The photo at left is a true-color visible light image of the Crab nebula. In the false-color breakout, the pulsar can be seen as the left member of the pair of stars just above the center of the frame. (Problem)
