Best Answer

No. A black dwarf is dense and has the mass of an entire star, so the gravitational pull would still be quite strong.

What do you mean? "Gravitational pull" and "gravity" is the same thing.


What does it mean when light could not escape?

In the case of a black hole, the gravitational pull of the black hole is greater than the speed of light. Which means that the light is not fast enough to escape the gravitational pull of the black hole.


Why aren't there white holes and black dwarfs?

black holes create a strong gravitational pull that pulls everything into it, including light. and because light can't escape it's pull, then the black hole cannot radiate light, thus making it impossible to radiate light. and also, a white dwarf that has completely run out of fuel stops radiating light and becomes a black dwarf. so, black dwarfs do exist. it's simple logic, so the answers not to hard

Why does a black hole have tremendous gravitational pull even when its mass is the same as that of the parent star?

It has such a great gravitational pull because of the center(called the singularity) has such a high density that if a airplane where to go through it and come back out it would be the same size as a marble and be the same weight. Therefore black holes have a huge gravitational pull.


Is the moon too small to have a gravitational pull on another object?

No, the moon's gravitational pull on the earth is the dominate cause of tides in the oceans. When the Apollo moon missions were going on, the moon's gravity both kept the command module in orbit and the lander and astronauts on its surface. Nothing is too small to have a gravitational pull on another object.
