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

A particle is moving with SHM of period pie . initially it is 10 cm from The center of the motion and moving in the positive dir
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

y = 10.44cos(2t - 0.291) cm

Explanation:

y = Acos(2πt/T + φ) = Acos(2πt/π + φ) = Acos(2t + φ)

v = y' = -2Αsin(2t + φ)

10 = Acos(2(0) + φ) = Acosφ

6 = -2Αsin(2(0) + φ) = -2Asinφ

6/10 = -2Asinφ/Acosφ = -2tanφ

tanφ = -0.3

φ = -0.291 radians

10 = Acos(-0.291)

A = 10/cos(-0.291) = 10.44

An ideal gas occupies 0.4 m3 at an absolute pressure of 500 kPa. What is the absolute pressure if the volume changes to 0.9 m3 a
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

<h2>2.22 kPa</h2>

Explanation:

The new volume can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

Since we are finding the new volume

V_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}  \\

From the question we have

V_2 =  \frac{0.4 \times 500000}{0.9}   =  \frac{200000}{0.9} \\  = 222222.2222... \\  = 222222

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.22 kPa</h3>

Hope this helps you

A student constructs a simple constant volume gas thermometer and calibrates it using the boiling point of water, 100°C, and the
just olya [345]

Answer:

The pressure corresponding to the absolute zero temperature is 0.997atm.

Explanation:

To solve this question, you draw a straight vertical line with the boiling point temperature and pressure on top of the line and the freezing point temperature and pressure on the lower part. The absolute temperature somewhere in the middle of the line with the pressure to be obtained.

So, we have;

0- (-19) / 100 - (-19) = P - 0.9267 / 1.366 - 0.9267

19 / 119 = P - 0.9267 / 0.4393

Cross multiply, we have

19 * 0.4393 = 119(P -0.9267)

8.3467 = 119P - 110.2773

119P = 118.624

P = 0.997 atm

So at 0°C, the pressure of the thermometer is 0.997atm.
