Assume-the star is notrotating

Reference no: EM13556569

A neutron star has a mass of 2.0 10³⁰ kg (about the mass of oursun) and a radius of 4.8 10³ m (about the height of a good-sized mountain). Suppose an object falls from rest near the surface of such a star. How fast would it be moving after ithad fallen a distance of 0.018 m? (Assume that the gravitational forceis constant over the distance of the fall, and that the star is notrotating.)
