Which statements are true of a white dwarf? It has a red shell. It is the result of the core collapse of a low-mass star that sheds its outer layers. It emits massive amounts of light compared with other stars. It strongly attracts all matter or energy that comes near it. It cools down to become a black dwarf.

JustSaiyan:

It has a red shell

SkyVoltage43:

JustSaiyan:

It cools down to become a black dwarf. But since it takes a very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very long time to cool down, there are no black dwarfs. Yet.

JustSaiyan:

It strongly attracts all matter or energy that comes near it.

SkyVoltage43:

JustSaiyan:

That is it. This is interesting. Some of these will pull in materials from neighboring stars, and then detonate in a thermo-nuclear explosion.

JustSaiyan:

SkyVoltage43:
