    By definition we have that gravity is defined as:

    g = G * M / r ^ 2

    Where,

    M = Mass

    r = radius

    G = 6.67 * 10 ^ - 11 Nm ^ 2 / kg ^ 2

    Substituting the values we have:

    g = (6.67 * 10 ^ - 11) * (1.2 * 10 ^ 31) / (5000) ^ 2

    g = 3.2016E + 13 m / s ^ 2

    Answer:

    the acceleration of gravity at the surface of this condensed, burned-out star is

    g = 3.2016E + 13 m / s ^ 2
