In this system we have the conservation of angular momentum: L₁ = L₂
We can write L = m·r²·ω

Therefore, we will have:
m₁ · r₁² · ω₁ = m₂ · r₂² · ω₂

The mass stays constant, therefore it cancels out, and we can solve for ω<span>₂:
</span>ω₂ =  (r₁/ r₂)² · ω<span>₁
     
Since we know that r</span>₁ = 4r<span>₂, we get:
</span>ω₂ =  (4)² · ω<span>₁
     = 16 </span>· ω<span>₁

Hence, the protostar will be rotating 16 </span><span>times faster.</span>

2. What process does water redeposit into a lake in the form of rain?
weqwewe [10]

The process that water redeposit into a lake in the form of rain is precipitation.

<h3>What is water runoffs?</h3>

Water runoff occurs when there is more water than land can absorb.

The water flows across the surface of the land and into nearby creeks, streams, or lakes.

Runoff can come from both natural processes and human activity.

When rain falls to the earth from clouds and runs downhill into rivers and lakes.

During evaporation, the water turns from liquid into gas, and moves from oceans and lakes into the atmosphere where it forms clouds.

<h3>What is precipitation?</h3>

Precipitation is any liquid (rain) or frozen water that forms in the atmosphere and falls back to the Earth, for example it could fall on land or into lakes and rivers.

Thus,  the process that water redeposit into a lake in the form of rain is precipitation.
