Certain neutron stars (extremely dense stars) are believed to be rotating at about 50 rev/s. If such a star has a radius of 15 k
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:M=49.95\times 10^{26} kg

Explanation:

Given

N=50 rev/s

\omega =2\pi N

\omega =2\pi \cdot 50=314.2 rad/s

radius of neutron star r=15 km

Centripetal force on material having mass m is given by

F_c=\frac{mv^2}{r}

Gravitational Force between neutron star and mass m is

F_g=\frac{GMm}{r^2}  ,where M=mass of Neutron star

equating centripetal Force and Gravitational Pull

\frac{mv^2}{r}=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

M=\frac{v^2r}{G}

M=\frac{\omega ^2r^3}{G}

M=\frac{(314.2)^2\times (15000)^3}{6.67\times 10^{-11}}

M=\frac{0.4995\times 10^17}{10^{-11}}

M=49.95\times 10^{26} kg

Estimate how much mass the Sun loses through fusion reactions during its 10-billion-year life. You can simplify the problem by a
Bess [88]

Explanation:

By using Einstein equation,

E = mc²

m = E/c²

As the sun's energy output remains constant, we are taking it as 3.839×10²⁶.

speed of light c = 299,729,458 m/s

by putting these values in above equation,

m = (3.839×10²⁶)/(299.729,458)²

m = 4.721×10⁹kg.

It is the mass that loss per second.

Now a year (including leap year) has 31,556,926 seconds. Thus the 10 billion years equal 1.348×10²⁷kg of total mass loss.
