C6M.9 Astar with mass M and radius R collides with another
star of massM and radius R, and coalesce to form a new
star at rest whose radius is R. Assume that initially the
colliding stars had angular velocities with opposite direc-
tions but the same magnitude | What is the magnitude
and direction of the final star's angular velocity? (Express
the magnitude as a fraction of )
The Sun’s mass is 2.0 × 1030 kg, its radius is 7.0 × 105 km, and it has a rotational period of approximately 28 days. If the Sun should collapse into a white dwarf of radius 3.5 × 103 km, what would its period be if no mass were ejected and a sphere of uniform density can model the Sun both before and after?
A star with a of mass of 3.0x1032 kg and radius 7.0x108 m is initially rotating at a rate of once every 30 days. The star collapses into a neutron star with the same mass but a new radius of 18,000 m. What is the new angular speed of the star? (Give your answer in rotations per second.) Assume the star is a solid sphere: Isphere = 2/5 MR2.
