When the neutron star rotates rapidly, a material on its surface to remain in place, the magnitude of the gravitational acceleration on the central material must be equal to magnitude of the centripetal acc. of the rotating star.

That is

$\frac{GM_{ns}}{R^2}= \omega^2 R$

M_ns = mass odf the netron star.

G= gravitational constant = 6.67×10^{-11}

R= radius of the star = 18×10^3 m

ω = 10 rev/sec = 20π rads/sec

therefore,

$M_{ns}= \frac{\omega^2R^3}{G} = \frac{4\pi^2\times(18\times10^3)^3}{6.67\times10^{-11}}$

= 3.45185... E26 Kg

= 3.45185×10^26 Kg

What is work - energy theorem ??

Elden [556K]

The work-energy theorem explains the idea that the net work - the total work done by all the forces combined - done on an object is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the object. After the net force is removed (no more work is being done) the object's total energy is altered as a result of the work that was done.

This idea is expressed in the following equation:

is the total work done

is the change in kinetic energy

is the final kinetic energy

is the initial kinetic energy

mark me as brainliest ❤️

It takes you 9.8 min to walk with an average velocity of 1.9 m/s to the north from the bus stop to the museum entrance.

60 x 9.8 = 588
588 x 1.9 = 1117.2
