white dwarf stars are not as bright as our sun but their temperature is ________. (HINT: Reset show's our sun's temp around 5800K. Check "show luminosity classes" to find white dwarf stars and click that area on the diagram.)

White dwarf stars are not as bright as our Sun, but their temperature is typically much higher, often exceeding 100,000 K. White dwarfs are remnants of stars that have exhausted their nuclear fuel and have collapsed to a small size, resulting in high temperatures despite their lower luminosity.
