Answer:

To summarize, potential energy is the energy that is stored in an object due to its position relative to some zero position.

Neutron stars are extremely dense objects that are formed from the remnants of supernova explosions. Many rotate very rapidly. S
Alja [10]

Answer:

16294 rad/s

Explanation:

Given that

M(ns) = 2M(s), where

M(s) = 1.99*10^30 kg, so that

M(ns) = 3.98*10^30 kg

Again, R(ns) = 10 km

Using the law of gravitation, the force between the Neutron star and the sun is..

F = G.M(ns).M(s) / R²(ns), where

G = 6.67*10^-11, gravitational constant

Again, centripetal force of the neutron star is given as

F = M(ns).v² / R(ns)

Recall that v = wR(ns), so that

F = M(s).w².R(ns)

For a circular motion, it's been established that the centripetal force is equal to the gravitational force, hence

F = F

G.M(ns).M(s) / R²(ns) = M(s).w².R(ns)

Making W subject of formula, we have

w = √[{G.M(ns).M(s) / R²(ns)} / {M(s).R(ns)}]

w = √[{G.M(ns)} / {R³(ns)}]

w = √[(6.67*10^-11 * 3.98*10^30) / 10000³]

w = √[2.655*10^20 / 1*10^12]

w = √(2.655*10^8)

w = 16294 rad/s

Many television sets show 25 images, called 'frames, each second. What is the time interval between one
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Given,

Frame rate = 25 frames per second

To find,

Time interval between one frame and the next.

Solution,

We can simply solve this numerical problem by using the following process.

Now,

Number of frames = 25

Total time taken to display the given number of frames (ie. 25 frames) = 1 second

To calculate the time interval between one frame and next, we need to divide the time taken to display total number of frames by total number of frames.

So,

Time interval between one frame and next :

= Time taken to display total number of frames / Total frames

= 1/25

= 0.04 second

Hence, time interval between one frame and next is 0.04 second.
