During most of its lifetime, a star maintains an equilibrium size in
which the inward force of gravity on each atom is balanced by an
outward pressure force due to the heat of the nuclear reactions in
the core. But after all the hydrogen "fuel" is consumed by nuclear
fusion, the pressure force drops and the star undergoes a
gravitational collapse until it becomes a neutron star. In a neutron
star, the electrons and protons of the atoms are squeezed
together by gravity until they fuse into neutrons. Neutron stars
spin very rapidly and emit intense pulses of radio and light waves,
one pulse per rotation. These "pulsing stars" were discovered in
the 1960s and are called pulsars.

You separate the protons and electrons of the object into two boxes. You take all the protons out of the object and stuff them into a box and also take all the electrons out of the object and stuff them into a second box. You initially put the boxes of protons and electrons 45 m apart. Now you want to take the two boxes and move them farther apart, to a new distance of 81 m apart. How much work (that is, energy) would you have to expend to pull the boxes that much farther apart, fighting against the electrostatic attraction between them? 1.92E+26 J 3.84E+26 J 7.68E+26 J 1.54E+27 Jarrow_forward
