In 1999, scientists discovered a new class of black holes with masses 100 to 10,000 times the mass of our sun that occupy less space than our moon. Suppose that one of these black holes has a mass of 1x10^3 suns and a radius equal to one-half the radius of our moon. What is the density of the black hole in g/cm^3? The radius of our sun is 7.0x10^5 km, and it has an average density of 1.4x10^3 kg/m^3. The diameter of the moon is 2.16x10^3 miles.
The star HD 69830's mass is 1.7 ✕ 1030 kg, its radius is 6.3 ✕ 105 km, and it has a rotational period of approximately 35 days. If HD 69830 should collapse into a white dwarf of radius 7.8 ✕ 103 km, what would its period (in s) be if no mass were ejected and a sphere of uniform density can model HD 69830 both before and after?

After the Sun exhausts its nuclear fuel, its ultimate fate may be to collapse to a white dwarf state. In this state, it would have approximately the same mass as it has now, but its radius would be equal to the radius of the Earth. (a) Calculate the average density of the white dwarf. kg/m³ (b) Calculate the surface free-fall acceleration. m/s² (c) Calculate the gravitational potential energy associated with a 3.38-kg object at the surface of the white dwarf.
