A star ending its life with a mass of four to eight times the Sun's mass is expected to collapse and then undergo a supernova ev

ent. In the remnant that is not carried away by the supernova explosion, protons and electrons combine to form a neutron star with approximately twice the mass of the Sun. Such a star can be thought of as a gigantic atomic nucleus. Assume r-aA1/3. If a star of mass 3.88 x 1030 kg is composed entirely of neutrons (mn 1.67 x 1027 kg), what would its radius be?

Answer:

r = 16 Km

Explanation:

given  

m_n= 1.67 x 10^-27 Kg

M_star = 3.88 x 10^30 Kg  

A= M_star/m_n

A= 3.88*10^30/1.67 x 10^-27

A=2.28 *10^57  neutrons                           A = The number of neutrons  

we use the number of neutrons as a mass number because the star has only neutrons. = 1.2 x 10-15 m

r = r_o*A^1/3

r = 1.2*10^-15*2.28 *10^57^1/3

r = 16 Km

Which of the following statements describe the steps you need to take to delete a file?
Doss [256]
In order to delete a file, it is required to first select the file which you want to delete and then select 'delete' from the file menu. It will then ask you to confirm the deletion which will be required in order to complete the file deletion process.

It isn't required to click on the X at the top right of the screen or to open the file you want to delete as these steps aren't relevant to the deletion process.

Hence, the statements which describe the steps you need to take in order to delete a file are as follows:

- Confirm the deletion.
- Select Delete from the File menu.
- Select the file you want to delete.

Weekend A<br> Assignment<br> Differentiate between forced and damped oscillation
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

A damped oscillation means an oscillation that fades away with time while Forced oscillations occur when an oscillating system is driven by a periodic force that is external to the oscillating system.

Explanation:

Damping is the reduction in amplitude (energy loss from the system) due to overcomings of external forces like friction or air resistance and other resistive forces. ... When a body oscillates by being influenced by an external periodic force, it is called forced oscillation.
