If perfectly elastic there would be no energy left over for exciting the atom. if the collision were partially elastic, then some of the initial kinetic energy would be converted into internal energy,

hope this help

Using the law of conservation of angular momentum, estimate how fast a collapsed stellar core would spin if its initial spin rat

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

$\omega_{f} = 1000000\,\frac{rev}{day}$

Explanation:

The law of conservation of angular momentum states that angular momentum remains constant when there is no external moment or forces applied to the system. Let assume that star can be modelled as an sphere, then:

$\frac{2}{5}\cdot M\cdot R_{o}^{2} \cdot \omega_{o} = \frac{2}{5}\cdot M\cdot R_{f}^{2} \cdot \omega_{f}$

The final angular speed is:

$\omega_{f} = \omega_{o}\cdot (\frac{R_{o}}{R_{f}})^{2}$

$\omega_{f} = (1\,\frac{rev}{day} )\cdot (\frac{10000\,km}{10\,km} )^{2}$

$\omega_{f} = 1000000\,\frac{rev}{day}$
