A spacecraft is in a circular orbit of radius 33104 km


A spacecraft is in a circular orbit of radius 3.3*104 km arounda 1.9*1030 kg pulsar. The magnetic field of the pulsar at that radial distanceis 1.6*102 T directed perpendicular to the velocity of the spacecraft. The spacecraft is 0.20 km long with a radius of 0.040 km and moves counter clock wise in the xy-plane around the pulsar.

a) What is the speed of the space craft?
b) Compute the induced emf.
c) Describe the hazards for astronauts inside any space craft moving in the vicinity of a pulsar.
