Will a supernova cause a black whole?

Either a black hole, or a neutron star. That depends on how much mass is left after the supernova explosion.


Why is why is there an upper limit to the mass of neutron stars?

There is an upper limit to the mass of neutron stars because if the mass exceeds a certain value, known as the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff limit, the gravitational force would overcome the pressure from neutron degeneracy and cause the star to collapse further into a black hole. This limit is estimated to be around 2-3 times the mass of the Sun.


Why do some stars become white dwarfs and others become neutron stars and black holes?

Actually if a star is medium or low mass is will run out of fuel and turn into a red giant, once the stars atmosphere slowly drifts away and the core is remaining it will eventually become a white dwarf For more massive stars it will turn in to a super giant the will cause a supernova, after the supernova the star can either a black hole or a neutron star


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.

What is a pulsar made of?

A pulsar is made primarily of neutrons, packed tightly together in a dense core known as a neutron star. Neutron stars are formed from the remnants of massive stars that have exploded in supernovae. Their incredibly strong magnetic fields and rapid rotation cause them to emit beams of electromagnetic radiation, leading to the characteristic pulses that give pulsars their name.

What happens when stars get together do they make a black hole?

If you mean the stars smashing together:Yes AND No, yes if the stars are neutron stars, they'll go supernova and cause a black hole.. or if the stars are white dwarf and bigger stars,no if the 2 stars are yellow main sequences. if main sequence yellows they'll make a blue star or a blue straggler.

What cause a neutron star to form?

The strong gravity of the core of a dead high-mass star causes a neutron star to form. When the high-mass star becomes a supernova and leaves a core behind, the core no longer undergo fusion. Without fusion, gravity starts to push the core inward until most protons and electrons are crushed into neutrons, a neutron star forms. If the core is too massive, the neutron star would collapse and become a black hole.


Which type of radiation can cause the most damage to cells in the body?

neutron radiation


What would cause the fuse for the brake light blow immediately after inserting a new fuse in on an 87 Nissan Pulsar?

There is probably a short in the wiring.


Is a pulsar denser than a neutron star?

The very definition of a black hole is a stellar body dense enough to have an escape velocity greater than that of light -- in other words, light that comes close enough to its event horizon will be trapped around it forever. If a star dies and it has enough mass to be compressed to a high-enough mass-to-radius-squared ratio to have such a high escape velocity, then a black hole will result. Otherwise, it will become a neutron star -- extremely dense, to be sure, but not dense enough to trap light, and therefore not as dense as a black hole.


Do black holes pulse?

The stellar remnant which is famous for pulsation is quite appropriately called a "pulsar" - and is a highly magnetic neutron star which emits a beam of radiation somewhat like a lighthouse as it rotates, thus seems to pulse as observed from Earth. By contrast, black holes strictly speaking do not emit radiation, in fact they can't; due to their intense gravitational field, not even light can escape. However, there are effects around them powered by their immense gravity which might produce bursts of energy, although they are much more likely to be steady and continuous (like their polar jets), steady and very weak (like Hawking radiation) or irregular and unpredictable - like the x-ray radiation from the intensely energetic accretion disk; all of which effects are outside the black hole. Depending on how fast and how 'clumpy' matter is arriving in the disk, they might seem to pulsate - but again the pulsar, which is not as dense as a black hole, is more widely known for pulsation, and which effect is attributed to a different cause.


How does an insertion sequence cause a mutation?

An insertion sequence can cause a mutation by inserting itself into a gene or regulatory region of DNA, disrupting the normal function of that gene or regulatory sequence. This disruption can lead to changes in the protein produced by the gene, affecting the organism's phenotype.
