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

podryga [215]

At the frequency of 5 MHz, the period of the oscillations is 1/5meg. That's a period of 1/5 microsecond.

There are 5 full cycles in one full microsecond, and there are 2.5 full cycles in a 0.5 us pulse.

You'll have to decide for yourself how damped a pulse of 2.5 cycles is, because the parameters of the definition are corrupted in the question.

A 1.5-kg block slides at rest starts sliding down a snow-covered hill Point A, which has an altitude of 10 m. There is no fricti
damaskus [11]

Answer:

the speed of the block when it reaches point B is 14 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of the block slides = 1.5 - kg

height = 10 m

Force constant  = 200 N/m

distance of rough surface patch = 20 m

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.15

In order to determine the speed of the block when it reaches point B.

We consider the equation for the energy conservation in the system which can be represented by:

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh

\dfrac{1}{2}v^2=gh

v^2=2 \times g \times   h

v^2=2 \times 9.8 \times   10

v=\sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \times   10

v=\sqrt{196

v = 14 m/s

Thus; the speed of the block when it reaches point B is 14 m/s
