Certain neutron stars (extremely dense stars) are believed to be rotating at about 1000 rev/s. If such a star has a radius of 14

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

Answer:

minimum mass of the neutron star = 1.624 × 10^30 kg

Explanation:

For  a material to remain on the surface of a rapidly rotating neuron star, the magnitude oĺf the gravitational acceleration on the material must be equal to the magnitude of the centripetal acceleration of the rotating neuron star.

This can be represented by the explanations in the attached document.

minimum mass of the neutron star = 1.624 × 10^30 kg

Helium gas is compressed by an adiabatic compressor from an initial state of 14 psia and 50°F to a final temperature of 320°F in
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

The value is  P_2 = 40.54 \ psla

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The initial pressure is  P_1 = 14\  psla

  The initial temperature is  T_1 =  50 \ F = (50 - 32) * [\frac{5}{9} ] + 273 = 283  \  K

   The final temperature is  T_2 =  320 \ F = (320 - 32) * [\frac{5}{9} ] + 273 =433  \  K

Generally the equation for adiabatic process is mathematically represented as

         PT^{\frac{\gamma}{1- \gamma} } =  Constant

=>      P_1T_1^{\frac{\gamma}{1- \gamma} } =  P_2T_2^{\frac{\gamma}{1- \gamma} }

Generally for a monoatomic gas  \gamma =  \frac{5}{3}

So

           14 * 283^{\frac{\frac{5}{3} }{1- [\frac{5}{3} ]} } =P_2 * 433^{\frac{\frac{5}{3} }{1- [\frac{5}{3} ]} }

=>       14 * 283^{-2.5} =P_2 * 433^{-2.5}

=>       P_2 = 40.54 \ psla

Officials begin to release water from a full man-made lake at a rate that would empty the lake in 4 weeks, but a river that can
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

5 weeks and 5 days is required to empty the lake

Explanation:

Officials begin the remove water from a full man made lake

The lake can be emptied in 4 weeks

= -1/4

A river can fill the lake up in 15 weeks

= 1/15

Let t represent the number of weeks that is required to empty the lake

= -1/t

Therefore the number of weeks it takes to empty the lake can be calculated as follows

-1/t= -1/4 + 1/15

-1/t= -11/60

Cross multiply

-11×t= -1×60

-11t= -60

t = 60/11

t= 5 5/11

Hence it takes 5 weeks and 5 days to empty the lake
