It has been said that pulsar matter, if you had some on the surface of our planet, would slice right through our planet like a hot knife on butter. Demonstrate this by using pressure and one cubic centimeter of pulsar matter placed on the surface of the earth. One cubic centimeter of pulsar matter has a mass of 1.1 × 1012 kg. Hint: What is the area, in square meters, of one face of a cubic centimeter?
