Estimate the period of the neutron star

Reference no: EM13497280

A star of radius 7.8 × 105 km rotates about its axis with a period of 66 days. The star undergoes a supernova explosion, whereby its core collapses into a neutron star of radius 13 km. Estimate the period of the neutron star (assume the mass remains constant).
