It must spin faster in order to conserve angular momentum ... the same reason
that a skater spins faster when he pulls his arms in close to his body.

In which part of a newborn star does the fusion reactio occur?
In the center where the pressure and temperature are highest
Is warp speed Faster-than-light?
In the language of Star Trek it is, like the word mach implies a speed faster than sound. Don't know if warp is used to describe faster than light speeds in real life.
Is the Doppler effect the actual change in a stars frequency of a wave?
No. Doppler effect measures relative speed toward or away from the observer, there is no effect on the star itself.
Why do nuclear reactions take place inside the core of the sun?
Because of the energy source and it can also provide the needed speed for fusion. +++ Not speed. The nuclear fusion of is hydrogen to helium, and it occurs because the core of the star as it developed gained sufficient pressure and temperature for the reaction to start and become self-sustaining. The outer regions of a star are neither hot enough nor compressed enough for fusion to occur.
How do you glide 1300 in air glider on Kirby air ride?
The best way without Dragoon is to ride Jet Star and make sure to grab lots of Glide and Top Speed patches in City Trial.
When the core of a star shrinks after hydrogen fusion stops the core heats up but what happens to the star?
The rest of the star expands.
Why do neutron stars tend to have high angular velocities?
That's because of conservation of angular momentum - and the fact that neutron stars are very small. If a star the size of our Sun rotates (for example) once a month, once it shrinks to a diameter of 20-30 km., it will have to rotate several times per second in order to conserve angular momentum.
What are the release dates for George Shrinks - 2000 A Star Is Shrunk 3-2?
George Shrinks - 2000 A Star Is Shrunk 3-2 was released on: USA: 7 January 2003
How a neutron star spins so fast using the law of conservation of angular momentum?
Angular momentum is the energy of spinning objects. We can calculate the energy as the product of the mass times the "moment arm", the distance from the center of rotation tims the speed of rotation. In any closed system, angular momentum is "conserved", or remains constant.On a merry-go-round on the playground, if you get it going and then move toward the center, it speeds up a little. If you move out toward the edge, it slows down.An ice skater spins with her arms extended at a particular speed, but when she pulls in her arms, the rate of spin increases - but the angular momentum remains the same. Her hands and arms, pulled in, have a shorter "moment arm", so to keep the angular momentum constant, the speed increases.A star like our Sun spins in about 25 days. Our Sun is too small to go nova, so let's imagine a star twice as massive. If it were to go nova, about half of the mass would be blown off into space, but the remainder would be crushed into a tiny ball perhaps 20 miles in diameter. But that spinning star, with a rotation speed of perhaps 25 or 30 days, would keep a good part of the angular momentum. The star which once spun at a rate of one rotation per 25 days, with a radius of a half-million miles, now has a radius of 10 miles. So to keep the same angular momentum in such a small package, the neutron star remnant would spin much faster; probably several times per SECOND.
What is when a star shrinks in on itself until it can shrink no further and it has a massive explosion?
A Super Nova
When the star die what did it become?
During last ages of life of a star, to find what happens in coming ages of life of star. It determines on its mass explained by chandrashekher that if the mass of given star is 2.42 times the mass of our sun then it explodes in the form of supernova. If the mass of given star is less than the 2.42 times the mass of our sun then it shrinks to become white dwarf.
What happens when a star becomes red?
When a star tuns red it ceases to fuse hydrogen in its core and starts to fuse other elements (notably helium). When this happens the core shrinks but gets much hotter and the outer envelope of the star expands. This means that while the star is pumping out more energy this is happening over a wider area of surface so the temperature of any one area of the stellar surface is lower than it was before - and the star looks red.
Suppose the angular separation of two stars is samller than the angular resolution of your eyes How will the stars appear to your eyes?
Basically the stars will appear as a single star.
What is the angular separation from the pointer star to Arcturus?
I do not know which star is the one you refer to as "Pointer Star" but Arcturus has a declination (angle above the celestial equator) of +19° 10′ 56″. If yout "Pointer Star is "Polaris" then the angular distance between these stars is (90° - 19° 10′ 56″) or 70° 49' 04"
What would it be like to live above a star that never turns?
Star are formed from nebula and the angular momentum of the nebular matter is preserved in the angular momentum of the spinning star, plus the planets and other parts of the stellar system. If the star did not spin, it would mean that the laws of physics had broken down and in that case, who knows what could happen!
When was Speed Star created?
Speed Star was created in 2008.
The proper motion of a star or other object is measured by what?
By measuring the change in angular diameter of the object
