In the Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram, white dwarfs are typically found in the lower left region, where they are cooler and less luminous compared to main sequence stars. A white dwarf with a temperature of 10,000 K would likely fall into the spectral class "DA" (which typically includes many white dwarfs), but in terms of the main sequence spectral classes provided—O, B, A, or F—10,000 K would be associated with the "A" class.
So the correct response is:
**A**
So the correct response is:
**A**
