During a supernova, the outer layers of a star are blown off and the star's core shrinks down by a factor of 10,000 or more to f

orm a neutron star. As the core shrinks, conservation of angular momentum says that
a. the core will spin faster.
b. the spin of the core does not change.
c. the core's rotational axis will precess rapidly, forming a pulsar.
d. the core will spin more slowly.

Answer:

a. the core will spin faster.

Explanation:

By law of conservation of angular momentum

(mvR)i= (mvR)f

m= mass of star

v= speed of star

R= radius of star

i= initial

f= final

since, size(R) of the star is reduced by factor of 10,000 and mass remains the same, the velocity must increase by the same factor to keep the angular momentum conserved.

Hence, a. the core will spin faster.

The absolute magnitude of a star________.
serg [7]
<span>The absolute magnitude of a star is how bright it would appear to us
if it were located ten parsecs (about 32.6 light years) from us.  So it's
a way of treating all stars equally ... on a "level playing field" ... and it
describes each star's actual brightness. </span>
