Chapter 10, Problem 21SEQ

Explain all answers clearly, with complete sentences and proper essay structure if needed. An asterisk (*) designates a quantitative problem, for which you should show all your work.

Neutron Star Density. A typical neutron star has a mass of about 1.5 M S u n and a radius of 10 kilometers.

  1. Calculate the average density of a neutron star, in kilograms per cubic centimeter.
  2. Compare the mass of 1 cm 3 of neutron star material to the mass of Mount Everest ( 5 × 10 10 kg ) .

The character Min Min from Arms was a DLC character added to Super Smash Bros.  Min Min’s arms are large springs, with a spring constant of 8.53 ⋅ 10^3 N/m, which she uses to punch and fling away her opponents.  Min Min pushes her spring arm against Steve, who is not moving, compressing it 1.20 m as shown in figure A.  Steve has a mass of 81.6 kg.  Assuming she uses only the spring to launch Steve, how fast is Steve moving when the spring is no longer compressed? As Steve goes flying away he goes over the edge of the level, as shown in figure C.  What is the magnitude of Steve’s velocity when he is 2.00 m below where he started?
Slinky dog whose middle section is a giant spring with a spring constant of 10.9 N/m. Woody, who has a mass of 0.412 kg, grabs onto the tail end of Slink and steps off the bed with no initial velocity and reaches the floor right as his velocity hits zero again. How high is the bed? What is Woody’s velocity halfway down? Enter just the magnitude of velocity.
