Certain neutron stars (extremely dense stars) are believed to be rotating at about 10 rev/s. If such a star has a radius of 18 k

m, what must be its minimum mass so that material on its surface remains in place during the rapid rotation in kilograms?

Answer:

mass of the neutron star =3.45185×10^26 Kg

Explanation:

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

A person holds a rifle horizontally and fires at a target. The bullet leaves the muzzle of the rifle with a velocity of 460 m/s.
Trava [24]

Answer:

the distance travelled from the bullet to the target  is 391m

Explanation:

Hello! To solve this exercise we must follow the following steps.

1. the bullet travels with constant speed which means that the distance traveled to the target is given by the following equation

X=(V1)(T1)

T1=\frac{X}{V1} =\frac{x}{460}

where

X=target distance

V1=bullet speed=460m/s

T1=

time it takes for the bullet to reach the target

2. The distance the sound travels is given by the following equation (it is the same as the distance from the person to the target)

X=(V2)(T2)

T2=\frac{X}{V2} =\frac{x}{340}

X=

target distance

V2= speed of sound=340m/s

T2=   time it takes the sound of the Bullet to return.

3. The total time it takes for the person to hear the bullet(T=2s) is the sum of the time it takes for the bullet to reach the target, plus the time it takes for the sound to reach the person, with the above we infer the following equation

T=T1+T2

2=T1+T2

4. Finally we use the equations found in step 1 and 2 to find the distance traveled using algebra.

2=\frac{x}{340}+\frac{x}{460} \\x(\frac{1}{340} +\frac{1}{460} )=2\\\ X= \frac{2}{(\frac{1}{340} +\frac{1}{460} )} \\\\x=391m

the distance travelled from the bullet to the target  is 391m
