Explanation:
neutron stars have diameters of about 20km and they are denser than the earth. A rotating neutron star pulsating electromagnetic beam is a named a pulsars but not all neutron stars are pulsars.
Only three of hundreds of known pulsar are found in supernova remnants because as neutron stars gets older, they lose energy and starts to decrease their rotational speeds and the neutron star could not radiate particles and energy for long as a pulsar does. there are less existing pulsars compared to supernova explosion rate because the life time of pulsars is obout 10×10^6 years after the neutron can no longer spin at high speeds to produce beams of particles and energy, almost all the pulsars are older and spin slow to produce light of visible wavelength or X-ray wavelengths and we only get a pulse of radiation from a neutron star as a pulsar as the beam sweeps over earth.
The net force acting on the refrigerator is 400 N to the right.

FURTHER EXPLANATION</h3>
The net force or resultant force is the sum of all the forces acting on a body or an object in x and y axes.
- Forces along the y-axis The forces that usually act on an object vertically (in the y-axis) are: gravitational force which is a downward force and the normal force which is an upward (perpendicular) force exerted by a surface on an object resting above it that keeps the object from falling.
- Forces along the x-axis These include the force or forces applied to cause a left or right motion of an object along the horizontal plane (called the Applied Force) and the force that opposes the motion or friction.
In this problem the forces acting on the x and y - axes can be determined:
Along the x-axis:
- gravitational force = -1960 N
- normal force = +1960 N
- Net force = -1960 N + 1960 N = 0
The gravitational force is the weight of the object obtained by multiplying the mass of the object (in kg) with the acceleration due to gravity, 9.8 m/s^2. It is given a negative (-) sign to indicate that it is a downward force.
Since the object is not falling through the surface, it can be assumed that the gravitational force and normal force are balanced. Hence, the size of the normal force is the same as the gravitational force but with the opposite direction indicated by the + sign for an upward force.
The forces along the x-axis are balanced (i.e. net force is zero) so the object neither moves upward or downward.
Along the y-axis
- applied force = +400 N
- friction = 0
- Net force = +400 N + 0 = +400 N
The applied force is +400 N. It is given a + sign to indicate that its direction is to the right.
The friction, as mentioned in the problem, is set to zero or "turned off".
The net force along the y-axis is +400. The forces are unbalanced so the object will move to the right as force is applied to it.

Answer:
F=(-4.8*10^22,0,0) N
Explanation:
<u>Given :</u>
We are given the magnitude of the momentum of the planet and let us call this momentum (p_now) and it is given by p_now = 2.60 × 10^29 kg·m/s. Also, we are given the force exerted on the planet F = 8.5 × 10^22 N. and the angle between the planet and the star is Ф = 138°
Solution :
We are asked to find the parallel component of the force F The momentum here is not constant, where the planet moving along a curving path with varying speed where the rate change in momentum and the force may be varying in magnitude and direction. We divide the force here into two parts: a parallel force F to the momentum and a perpendicular force F' to the momentum.
The parallel force exerted to the momentum will speed or reduce the velocity of the planet and does not change its moving line. Let us apply the direction cosines, we could obtain the parallel force as next
F=|F|cosФp (1)
Where the parallel force F is in the opposite direction of p as the angle between them is larger than 90°. Now we can plug our values for 0 and I F I into equation (1) to get the parallel force to the planet
F=|F|cosФp
=-4.8*10^22 N*p
<em>As this force is in one direction, we could get its vector as next </em>
F=(-4.8*10^22,0,0) N
F=(0,-4.8*10^22,0) N
F=(0,0-4.8*10^22) N
The cosine of 138°, the angle between F and p is, is a negative number, so F is opposite to p. The magnitude of the planet's momentum will decrease.
