  4. Pulsar

hintHint:

A swiftly rotating neutron star is known as a pulsar.

The correct answer is: Pulsar


    • When massive stars collide with each other,  a neutron star is formed
    • All stars rotate swiftly,  so in accordance with the law of conservation of angular momentum, neutron stars must rotate fast.
    • Hence they rotate swiftly and are called pulsars.
