Neutron stars consist only of neutrons and have unbelievably high densities. a typical mass and radius for a neutron star might

be 9.9 x 1028 kg and 1.9 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)?

<span>Density is 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 Dime weighs 1.5x10^12 pounds The definition of density is simply mass per volume. So let's divide the mass of the neutron star by its volume. First, we need to determine the volume. Assuming the neutron star is a sphere, the volume will be 4/3 pi r^3, so 4/3 pi 1.9x10^3 = 4/3 pi 6.859x10^3 m^3 = 2.873x10^10 m^3 Now divide the mass by the volume 9.9x10^28 kg / 2.873x10^10 m^3 = 3.44588x10^18 kg/m^3 Since we only have 2 significant digits in our data, round to 2 significant digits, giving 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 Now to figure out how much the dime weighs, just multiply by the volume of the dime. 3.4x10^18 kg/m^3 * 2.0x10^-7 m^3 = 6.8x10^11 kg And to convert from kg to lbs, multiply by 2.20462, so 6.8x10^11 kg * 2.20462 lb/kg = 1.5x10^12 lb</span>

Peak wavelength of light coming from a star with a temp of 4300k
PSYCHO15rus [73]

from Wein's law

\frac{k}{ \lambda_{max} }  = T \\ \lambda_{max} =  \frac{k}{T}  \\ \lambda_{max} =  \frac{3.898 \times  {10}^{ - 3} }{4300}   \\  = 9.065 \times  {10}^{ - 7}
