Question:
By what factor does the rotational kinetic energy change when the star in Problem 39 collapses to a neutron star?
Problem 39
The angular velocity of a neutron star which has collapsed to a diameter of 16 km, from a star whose core radius was equal to that of Earth (6 × 106m) Assume its mass is 1.5 times that of the Sun, and that it rotated (like our Sun) about once a month
