?The core of a star collapses during a supernova, forming a neutron star. Angular

Chapter 11, Problem 75

(choose chapter or problem)

The core of a star collapses during a supernova, forming a neutron star. Angular momentum of the core is conserved, so the neutron star spins rapidly. If the initial core radius is \(5.0 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~km}\) and it collapses to 10.0 km, find the neutron star’s angular velocity in revolutions per second, given the core’s angular velocity was originally 1 revolution per 30.0 days.

5.0 times 10^5 km
