1) a) (5pts) Using calculus find the moment of inertia of a sphere of mass M and radius R. b) (5pts) The sphere represents a star. When a star undergoes a supernova it blows off some of its mass with the core collapsing to form a neutron star. If the star was initially spinning with a rotational rate of 1 revolution per 30.0 days while its core has a radius of 695,000 km, what will the rotational speed of the resulting neutron star be if it is enclosed within a sphere with a radius of 20.0 km?
