Neutron stars are what are thought to cause pulsars. A pulsar is an astronomical radio sourcethat emits pulses of radiation, as seen from earth. The regularity of the pulses initially causedthe discoverers Jocelyn Bell Burnell and Antony Hewish to speculate that the signals were fromanother civilization. The pulses were so regularly spaced that it was thought that pulsars couldbe used as a time standard. However, it was soon seen that the rate of pulse emission slows, butthen abruptly increases in events known as glitches. The current model (highly simplified) for a pulsar is a neutron star, one in which the electronshave been pushed down into the nucleuses by extreme gravitational forces to combine with theprotons to form neutrons. Material falling onto the surface of the neutron star gets superheatedand shoots off in the form of a jet. If the jet doesn’t coincide with the rotational axis of the star,the jet will precess around the axis. If the earth happens to lie on the cone of…

Based on a grade 11 physics student, answer the following question:The rebels are fighting the imperials on the icy planet Hoth. Han Solo didn’t dress for the weather (this ain’t Tattooine bud!), and is frozen solid (1234 kg of ice, at -123˚C ). Fortunately for Han, an AT-AT walker shoots its blasters and misses its target but hits Han which vaporizes the ice and brings him to a piping 102˚C. How much heat was added to Han Solo to turn him from a frozen chunk into a ‘Luke-warm’ rebel?
