The sun’s mass is 2.0×10^ 30 kg, its radius is 7.0×10 5 km, and it has a rotational period of approximately 28 days. if the sun should collapse into a white dwarf of radius 3.5×10 3 km, what would its period be if no mass were ejected and a sphere of uniform density can model the sun both before and after?

Which of the following characteristics of earth's relationship to the sun explains the existence of earth's seasons? choose all that apply. earth has a satellite called the moon, which rotates around earth. earth spins on its axis, completing one rotation each day. earth's axis always points in the same direction relative to the stars. earth's axis is tilted relative to its orbital plane. earth orbits around the sun, completing one orbit each year.
