A neutron star of 2.00 solar masses is rotating at a rate of 1.00 revolutions per second.

a) What is the radius of the neutron star?

b) Assuming its density is uniform, find the rotational inertia and its angular momentum.

c) Discover its rotational kinetic energy.

d) If its rotational speed slows by 1 part in 10  9 per day, find the loss in rotational kinetic energy per day.

e) Assuming that the entire energy loss goes into radiation, discover the radioactive power.
