So, I have this scenario:
A neutron star with radius R = 13 km
Time for 1 rotation is 3,150807 ms, so frequency f about 317,379008 Herz
Mass 1,97 times the Sun's which is then 1,97*(1,9884*10^30) kg
Extra given information: the magnetic axis is aligned with its rotational axis (not that likely but okkkk)
Now this Neutron star is a magnetar and has a powerful magnetic field of about 10^14 Gauss
Now we are in a rocket and we fire a single electron toward its magnetic south pole
initial distance from N-star: 10 million km
initial velocity of electron upon firing: an underwhelming 50 m/s
As the electron approaches the magnetic south pole, what will happen with its acceleration?
How does one calculate its speed upon colliding and how big the impact force is?
If the speed becomes relativistic would this formula be correct: KE = mc^2-m0*c^2
I'm kind of looking as to how the gravity and electromagnetic forces would influence this electron, I assume if one fired it at its magnetic north pole it would be totally different.
So it starts off with a normal velocity and gravitational acceleration g = (-GM*r-accent)/r^2
and how does electromagnetic force work with/against this acceleration?
And if it reaches velocity 0,2c should the gamma factor get a play in the scenario?
Yeah well, is it rude to put such a text out without giving any solutions? I tried, though, but my notebook is messy and I'm sure I'm wronggggg. If not helping me out maybe at least say what's wrong in my reasoning and how I should start off please?
I'm fairly new, but I must admit I've been hanging around threads before, lurking from the dark.
All the best/thanks in advance I guesss,
