Neutron stars are extremely dense objects that are formed from the remnants of supernova explosions. Many rotate very rapidly. S

uppose the mass of a certain spherical neutron star is twice the mass of the Sun and its radius is 13.0 km. Determine the greatest possible angular speed the neutron star can have so that the matter at its surface on the equator is just held in orbit by the gravitational force. (The mass of the Sun is 1.99 1030 kg.)

Answer:

The required angular speed the neutron star is 10992.32 rad/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

mass of the sun M_S = 1.99 × 10³⁰ kg

Mass of the neutron star

M_N = 2( M_S )

M_N = 2( 1.99 × 10³⁰ kg )

M_N = ( 3.98 × 10³⁰ kg )

Radius of neutron star R_N = 13.0 km = 13 × 10³ m

Now, let mass of a small object on the neutron star be m

angular speed be ω_N.

During rotational motion, the gravitational force on the object supplies the necessary centripetal force.

GmM_N = / R_N² = mR_Nω_N²

ω_N² = GM_N = / R_N³

ω_N = √(GM_N = / R_N³)

we know that gravitational G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

we substitute

ω_N = √( (  6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ )( 3.98 × 10³⁰ ) ) / (13 × 10³ )³)

ω_N = √( 2.65466 × 10²⁰ / 2.197 × 10¹²

ω_N = √ 120831133.3636777

ω_N = 10992.32 rad/s

Therefore, The required angular speed the neutron star is 10992.32 rad/s

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

4.9612 s

Explanation:

Applying,

T = 2π√(L/g)............... Equation 1

Where T = period of the pendulum, L = Lenght of the pendulum, g = acceleration due to gravity of the moon, π = pie.

From the question,

Given: L = 1 m, g = 1.6 m/s²

Constant: π = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 1

T = 2×3.14×√(1/1.6)

T = 6.28√(0.625)

T = 6.28×0.79

T = 4.9612 s

Explanation:

You have to check a 12 year olds respiration rate by Siting them down and trying to relax.  It's best to take the respiratory rate while sitting up in a chair or in bed.  Measure their breathing rate by counting the number of times their chest or abdomen rises over the course of one minute.  Then Record this number. Now you have to answer the first few  questions based on that.

Heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate and temperature are the big four vital signs.

8.  Secondary assessments are used in order to determine the injury, how the injury occurred, how severe the injury is, and to eliminate further injury and that is why it is important.

9. It should only be performed when a person shows no signs of life or when they are unconscious, unresponsive, not breathing or not breathing normally.  

In order to perform CPR, you need to check the scene and the person. Make sure the scene is safe, then tap the person on the shoulder and shout "Are you OK?" to ensure that the person needs help. Then pen the airway,  Check for breathing,  Push hard, push fast, deliver rescue breaths, continue CPR steps.

If a body p with a positive charge is placed in contact with a body q (initially uncharged), what will be the nature of the char
uysha [10]

If a body p with a positive charge is placed in contact with a body q (initially uncharged), then the nature of charge gained by q must be positive, because rubbing an uncharged body with a charged body or placed in contact with a positive charged body, helps gain a charge to the uncharged body.

There are a variety of methods to charge an object. One method is known as induction. In the induction process, a charged object is brought near but not touched to a neutral conducting object.

Let's know, how a element gain positive charge?

A positive charge occurs when the number of protons exceeds the number of electrons. A positive charge may be created by adding protons to an atom or object with a neutral charge. A positive charge also can be created by removing electrons from a neutrally charged object.
