Question:

A neutron star is a star that has collapsed so that it is essentially one big nucleus, and its radius is related to its “mass number” by Equation 30.5. (This is the same relation that gives the approximate radius of a normal nucleus.) If our Sun collapsed to make a neutron star, what would its radius be? 

r = r0A1/3 ...... 30.5
