Neutron stars are extremely dense objects formed from the remnants of supernova explosions. Many rotate very rapidly. Suppose th

e mass of a certain spherical neutron star is twice the mass of the Sun and its radius is 13.0 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.

Answer:

10989.55932 rad/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of object

M = Mass of neutron star = 2\times 1.989\times 10^{30}\ kg

R = Radius of neutron star = 13000 m

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

\omega = Angular speed

Here, the gravitational force will balance the centripetal force

\dfrac{GmM}{R^2}=mR\omega^2\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R^3}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 2\times 1.989\times 10^{30}}{13000^3}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=10989.55932\ rad/s

The greatest possible angular speed an object can have is 10989.55932 rad/s

Which is a characteristic that makes electromagnetic waves and water waves different
Paraphin [41]
We know that a wave is a disturbance that transfers energy through matter or space There are two main types of waves: Mechanical and Electromagnetic. Water waves are mechanical. A mechanical wave is an oscillation of matter to transfers energy, but you always need a medium (substance such as: solid, liquid, gas, plasma) to transport it. The medium for water waves is, in fact, the water. For example, ripple in water is a surface wave. On the other hand, electromagnetic waves don't need a medium to transport, they can do it through the empty space. Then, this is the major characteristic that makes these two types of waves different.

Scientific work is currently underway to determine whether weak oscillating magnetic fields can affect human health. For example
iragen [17]

Given Information:

Magnetic field = B = 1×10⁻³ T

Frequency = f = 72.5 Hz

Diameter of cell = d = 7.60 µm = 7.60×10⁻⁶ m

Required Information:

Maximum Emf = ?

Answer:

Maximum Emf = 20.66×10⁻¹² volts

Explanation:

The maximum emf generated around the perimeter of a cell in a field is given by

Emf = BAωcos(ωt)

Where A is the area, B is the magnetic field and ω is frequency in rad/sec

For maximum emf cos(ωt) = 1

Emf = BAω

Area is given by

A = πr²

A = π(d/2)²

A = π(7.60×10⁻⁶/2)²

A = 45.36×10⁻¹² m²

We know that,

ω = 2πf

ω = 2π(72.5)

ω = 455.53 rad/sec

Finally, the emf is,

Emf = BAω

Emf = 1×10⁻³*45.36×10⁻¹²*455.53

Emf = 20.66×10⁻¹² volts

Therefore, the maximum emf generated around the perimeter of the cell is 20.66×10⁻¹² volts
