Neutron stars are extremely dense objects that are formed from the remnants of supernova explosions. Many rotate very rapidly. S
Alja [10]

Answer:

16294 rad/s

Explanation:

Given that

M(ns) = 2M(s), where

M(s) = 1.99*10^30 kg, so that

M(ns) = 3.98*10^30 kg

Again, R(ns) = 10 km

Using the law of gravitation, the force between the Neutron star and the sun is..

F = G.M(ns).M(s) / R²(ns), where

G = 6.67*10^-11, gravitational constant

Again, centripetal force of the neutron star is given as

F = M(ns).v² / R(ns)

Recall that v = wR(ns), so that

F = M(s).w².R(ns)

For a circular motion, it's been established that the centripetal force is equal to the gravitational force, hence

F = F

G.M(ns).M(s) / R²(ns) = M(s).w².R(ns)

Making W subject of formula, we have

w = √[{G.M(ns).M(s) / R²(ns)} / {M(s).R(ns)}]

w = √[{G.M(ns)} / {R³(ns)}]

w = √[(6.67*10^-11 * 3.98*10^30) / 10000³]

w = √[2.655*10^20 / 1*10^12]

w = √(2.655*10^8)

w = 16294 rad/s

Convert the following to relative uncertainties <br>a) 2.70 ± 0.05cm<br>b) 12.02 ± 0.08cm
DENIUS [597]

data which is expressed in form of following way

a = a_o + \Delta a

here in above expression

a_o = true value

\Delta a = uncertainty in the value

now the relative uncertainty is given as

\frac{\Delta a}{a_o}

now by above formula we can say

a) 2.70 ± 0.05cm

here

True value = 2.70

uncertainty = 0.05

Relative uncertainty = \frac{0.05}{2.70} = 0.0185

b) 12.02 ± 0.08cm

here

True value = 12.02

uncertainty = 0.08

Relative uncertainty = \frac{0.08}{12.02} = 0.00665
