Suppose that the Sun runs out of nuclear fuel and suddenly collapses to form a so-called white dwarf star, with a diameter equal to that of the Earth. Assuming no mass loss, what would then be the new rotation period of the Sun, which currently is about 25 days? Assume that the Sun and the white dwarf are uniform spheres.
