A pulsar is a rapidly rotating neutron star. The Crab nebula pulsar in the constellation Taurus has a period of 33.5\times 10^{-

3}~\text{s}33.5×10 ​−3 ​​ s, radius 10.0 km, and mass 2.8\times 10^{30}~\text{kg}2.8×10 ​30 ​​ kg. The pulsar’s rotational period will increase over time due to the release of electromagnetic radiation, which doesn’t change its radius but reduces its rotational energy. What is the angular momentum of the pulsar?

Answer:

5.25\cdot 10^{40} kg m^2/s

Explanation:

The angular momentum of the pulsar is given by:

L=m\omega r^2

where

m=2.8\cdot 10^{30} kg is the mass of the pulsar

r = 10.0 km = 1\cdot 10^4 m is the radius

\omega is the angular speed

Given the period of the pulsar, T=33.5\cdot 10^{-3} s, the angular speed is given by

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2 \pi}{33.5\cdot 10^{-3}s}=187.5 rad/s

And so, the angular momentum is

L=m\omega r^2=(2.8\cdot 10^{30}kg)(187.5 rad/s)(1\cdot 10^4 m)^2=5.25\cdot 10^{40} kg m^2/s

Calculate a. The heat that must be supplied to a 500.0 g copper kettle containing 400.0 g of water to raise its temperature from
uysha [10]

Explanation:

<h2>For Copper</h2>

dH copper = mCdT copper

<em>(Specific Heat of copper=0.385 J/g C )   </em>

dH = 500 g (0.385 J/g C) (78 C rise)

dH = 15,015 Joules

<h2> For Water</h2>

dH water =  m C dT water

<em>(Specific Heat of copper=</em>4.184 J/g-C<em>)   </em>

<em />

dH = 400 g (4.184 J/g-C) (78 C rise)

dH = 130,540 Joules

total heat = 15,015 + 130,540 = 145,555 Joules

<h2>Percentage for Water  </h2>

(130,540 Joules  / 145,555 Joules) x 100 = 89.7 %

If we consider that we have 3 Significant Figures,

then, the answers become ,

15.0 KJ must be added for Copper

130.5 KJ must be added for Water

and the total of 145 KJ must be added in the kettle with the water

89.7 %  of heat goes to the Water
