How did neutron stars get its name?
The name "neutron star" some from the fact that the neutron star is mainly composed of neutrons. The gravitational pull of a neutron star is so strong that most matter are crushed into neutrons.
What is a collapsed star with stromg gravitational pull?
Depending on how big the star was, it could be a white dwarf, a neutron star, or a black hole.
Does a neutron star have gravity?
The most immense gravity for it's size of any single object in the universe. If it had been a slightly larger star before it went supernova and wound up as a neutron star, it would have collapsed into a black hole - where not even light could escape it's gravity.
A very small dense star It forms after a huge massive star explodes and then collapses A teaspoon of it matter would weigh millions of tons?
The description matches that of a neutron star, which is formed after a supernova explosion of a massive star. Neutron stars are incredibly dense, with matter packed tightly together. Due to their high gravitational pull, a small amount of neutron star material would have an extremely high mass.
What forms when the stars colape?
It depends on the size of the star. You could end up with a White Dwarf, a Neutron Star, or a Black Hole with a White Dwarf coming from the smaller star and and a Black Hole coming from the largest star. Our Sun will leave a White Dwarf when it burns out.
What star is the densest object known?
The most dense thing known is dark matter but it has not been proven to exist but it is said to be in black hole and the reason a black hole sucks you in is because it is very dense an object with that density has a very strong gravitational pull
Why is a neutron star called a neutron star?
A neutron star is a type of stellar remnant that results from the gravitational collapse of a massive star during a supernova.Such stars are composed almost entirely of neutrons, which are subatomic particles without electrical charge.See related link for more information.
What determines the temperature in the core of a star?
The star's mass determines the temperature in its core. A stars mass will also determined it size and the amount of gravitational pull it will have.
Is a neutron star a young or a old star?
neutron star is a stellar remnant so it is neither a young star nor an old star . It is formed by the gravitational collapse of massive star and are composed of neutrons . neutron star has a mass in between 1.35 to 2 solar masses
Is a neutron star a young star or an old star?
neutron star is a stellar remnant so it is neither a young star nor an old star . It is formed by the gravitational collapse of massive star and are composed of neutrons . neutron star has a mass in between 1.35 to 2 solar masses
How does the density of an object effect its gravitational pull on other objects example when a star's density increases its gravitational pull increases on other objects?
Mass, not density, and the closeness of objects, affects an object's gravitational pull. Density is not dependent on an object's size, but mass is. The more massive an object, and/or the closer an object is to another, the greater its gravitational pull.
What is about 20 km in size?
neutron star
