22). White dwarfs are dead stars. Because they are so small (r= 1,...), it's possible to orbit very close to them, even though they still have huge masses. Find the force of gravity between a planet of Earth's mass that is only 5% of the distance from the dead star that the Earth is from the Sun (m = 0.8 Ms.). How long would a "year" be for such a planet? ?258?
