Answer:
As beams of particles and their associated energy are given off, the pulsar will lose energy slowly, which will decrease the rate of its rotation. The frequency of pulses would therefore decrease, so that fewer pulses are observed in a given time span. The strength of the pulse signal will also decrease so the pulses will become fainter. Eventually, the pulsar should rotate so slowly and have such a low emission of radiation that it would no longer be observable.
