calculate the density of a neutron star with a radius 1.05 x10^4 m, assuming the mass is distributed uniformly. Treat the neutro

n star as a giant ucleaus and consider the mass of a nucleon 1.675 x 10^-27 kg. Your answer should be in the form of N x 10^17 kg/m^3. Enter onlt the number N with teo decimal places, do not enter unit.

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the proportion of a neutron star referring to the sun and density as a function of mass and volume.

Mathematically it can be expressed as

\rho = \frac{m}{V}

Where

m = Mass (Neutron at this case)

V = Volume

The mass of the neutron star is 1.4times to that of the mass of the sun

The volume of a sphere is determined by the equation

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi R^3

Replacing at the equation we have that

\rho = \frac{1.4m_{sun}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3}

\rho = \frac{1.4(1.989*10^{30})}{\frac{4}{3}\pi (1.05*10^4)^3}

\rho = 5.75*10^{17}kg/m^3

Therefore the density of a neutron star is 5.75*10^{17}kg/m^3

An object initially at rest experiences an acceleration of 0.281 m/s2 to the South for a time of 5.44 seconds. It then increases
andre [41]

Answer:

12.0 meters

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a₁ = 0.281 m/s²

t₁ = 5.44 s

a₂ = 1.43 m/s²

t₂ = 2.42 s

Find: x

First, find the velocity reached at the end of the first acceleration.

v = at + v₀

v = (0.281 m/s²) (5.44 s) + 0 m/s

v = 1.53 m/s

Next, find the position reached at the end of the first acceleration.

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = 0 m + (0 m/s) (5.44 s) + ½ (0.281 m/s²) (5.44 s)²

x = 4.16 m

Finally, find the position reached at the end of the second acceleration.

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

x = 4.16 m + (1.53 m/s) (2.42 s) + ½ (1.43 m/s²) (2.42 s)²

x = 12.0 m

Does an object which is positively charged contains all protons and no electrons?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Positively charged objects have electrons; they simply possess more protons than electrons.

Explanation:

2. An object that is electrically neutral contains only neutrons. Electrically neutral atoms simply possess the same number of electrons as protons.

<h3>Information:</h3>

If an atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, its net charge is 0. If it gains an extra electron, it becomes negatively charged and is known as an anion.

<h3>Tips:</h3>

If it loses an electron, it becomes positively charged and is known as a cation.

an average net force of 31.6 N is used to accelerate a 15.0 kg object uniformly from rest to 10.0 m/s leftward. What is the chan
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

-150 kg m/s

Explanation:

The change of momentum is calculated as ;

Δp= m*Δv where

where

Δp= change in momentum

Δv = vf-vi

m= mass of the object

Change in momentum is also calculated when using the formula;

Δp = F * Δt   when F is the net force applied and Δt is the time of action.

In this case;

m= 15 kg

vf=  -10 m/s

vi= 0 m/s

Taking rightward direction to be positive, then leftward will be negative.

Applying the formula as;

Δp = m*Δv

Δp = 15 * { -10 -0} = 15*-10 = -150 kg m/s
