bija089 [108]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

the exposed core of a dead star, supported by electron degeneracy pressure.

Explanation:

A white dwarf is a low luminosity exposed core of a dead star having mass comparable to the sun but volume comparable to the earth . So its density is very high . These stars have lost the capacity to generate energy through the process of fusion . Due to high gravitational energy , it goes on shrinking but ultimately balanced by electron degeneracy pressure. It is not a main sequence star as it has lost the power of fusion .

The typical unit for a period used with Kepler's third law is
ollegr [7]
Well, if you're using the law to work with periods of Earth satellites,
then the most convenient unit is going to be 'hours' for the largest
orbits, or 'minutes' for the LEOs.

But if you're using it to work with periods of planets, asteroids, or
comets, then you'd be working in days or years.
