Describe the evolution of a pulsar over time, in particular how the rotation and pulse signal changes over time.

madam [21]

Answer:

As beams of particles and their associated energy are given off, the pulsar will lose energy slowly, which will decrease the rate of its rotation. The frequency of pulses would therefore decrease, so that fewer pulses are observed in a given time span. The strength of the pulse signal will also decrease so the pulses will become fainter. Eventually, the pulsar should rotate so slowly and have such a low emission of radiation that it would no longer be observable.

A spaceship negotiates a circular turn of radius 2925 km at a speed of 29960 km/h. (a) What is the magnitude of the angular spee

emmainna [20.7K]

a) 0.0028 rad/s

b) $23.68 m/s^2$

c) $0 m/s^2$

Explanation:

a)

When an object is in circular motion, the angular speed of the object is the rate of change of its angular position. In formula, it is given by

$\omega = \frac{\theta}{t}$

where

$\theta$ is the angular displacement

t is the time interval

The angular speed of an object in circular motion can also be written as

$\omega = \frac{v}{r}$ (1)

where

v is the linear speed of the object

r is the radius of the orbit

For the spaceship in this problem we have:

$v=29,960 km/h$ is the linear speed, converted into m/s,

$v=8322 m/s$

$r=2925 km = 2.925\cdot 10^6 m$ is the radius of the orbit

Subsituting into eq(1), we find the angular speed of the spaceship:

$\omega=\frac{8322}{2.925\cdot 10^6}=0.0028 rad/s$

b)

When an object is in circular motion, its direction is constantly changing, therefore the object is accelerating; in particular, there is a component of the acceleration acting towards the centre of the orbit: this is called centripetal acceleration, or radial acceleration.

The magnitude of the radial acceleration is given by

$a_r=\omega^2 r$

where

$\omega$ is the angular speed

$r$ is the radius of the orbit

For the spaceship in the problem, we have

$\omega=0.0028 rad/s$ is the angular speed

$r=2925 km = 2.925\cdot 10^6 m$ is the radius of the orbit

Substittuing into the equation above, we find the radial acceleration:

$a_r=(0.0028)^2(2.925\cdot 10^6)=23.68 m/s^2$

c)

When an object is in circular motion, it can also have a component of the acceleration in the direction tangential to its motion: this component is called tangential acceleration.

The tangential acceleration is given by

$a_t=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta v$ is the change in the linear speed

$\Delta t$ is the time interval

In this problem, the spaceship is moving with constant linear speed equal to

$v=8322 m/s$

Therefore, its linear speed is not changing, so the change in linear speed is zero:

$\Delta v=0$

And therefore, the tangential acceleration is zero as well:

$a_t=\frac{0}{\Delta t}=0 m/s^2$

Challenge! A marshmallow is dropped from a 5-meter high pedestrian bridge and 0.83 seconds later, it lands right on the head of

WINSTONCH [101]

a₀). You know ...
       -- the object is dropped from 5 meters
   above the pavement;
         -- it falls for 0.83 second.

a₁). Without being told, you assume ...
   -- there is no air anyplace where the marshmallow travels,
   so it free-falls, with no air resistance;
   -- the event is happening on Earth,
where the acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s² .

b). You need to find how much LESS than 5 meters
   the marshmallow falls in 0.83 second.

c). You can use whatever equations you like.
   I'm going to use the equation for the distance an object falls in
   ' T ' seconds, in a place where the acceleration of gravity is ' G '.

d). To see how this all goes together for the solution, keep reading:

The distance that an object falls in ' T ' seconds
when it's dropped from rest is

   (1/2 G) x (T²) .

On Earth, ' G ' is roughly 9.81 m/s², so in 0.83 seconds,
such an object would fall

   (9.81 / 2) x (0.83)² = 3.38 meters .

It dropped from 5 meters above the pavement, but it
only fell 3.38 meters before something stopped it.
So it must have hit something that was

   (5.00 - 3.38) = 1.62 meters

above the pavement. That's where the head of the unsuspecting
person was as he innocently walked by and got clobbered.
