Is it true or fault that A white dwarf star is about the same size as the sun?
False. Although the Sun is considered a yellow dwarf, it is a young, healthy star. A white dwarf is the dying remnant of a red giant star. They are generally only about the size of Earth.
True or false. our sun is a white dwarf star?
False. The sun is a yellow main sequence star.
What is the difference between a true planet and a dwarf planet?
The difference is that a dwarf planet is not or no longer a true planet.To be a true planet it must fit these criteria:1.Orbit the Sun2. Be spherical(rounded shape)3. Be able to clear its path of any objects in the way such as debrisPluto was unable to fit these criteria so is now a dwarf planet :)
Is it true that Pluto is only larger than mercury?
No, this is not true.The dwarf planet Pluto is smaller than all of the major planets in our solar system, including Mercury.
What is true about centimeters and kilometers?
They are used to measure length. km is bigger unit than cm.
Is a star bigger than a planet?
in most cases, a star is bigger than a planet. yet, both stars and planets have different sizes, such as a white dwarf star is smaller than Jupiter.
Is it true or that a white dwarf is a large star capble of fusing elements?
no

A brown dwarf is what's left when a large star explodes true or false?
False. A brown dwarf is a failed star that cannot sustain nuclear fusion. When a star explodes it will leav behind either a neutron star or a black hole depending on its mass.
What is the biggest a star can get?
some stars are a 1000 times bigger than our star(sun) so they are ginornmous. so no matter how big a star we find, in time we will find one biggert than that one. there is no true number in size
True or false. our sun is a white dwarf star?
False. The sun is a yellow main sequence star.
What is a brown dwarf and is it different from a white dwarf star?
A white dwarf is the remnant of a massive star that has shed much of its mass. The dwarf starts out very hot but slowly loses its heat as it no longer has the mass or the hydrogen to carry on with fusion.A brown dwarf is a celestial body that doesn't have sufficient mass to initiate hydrogen fusion and thereby become a true star. They have heat due to their initial gravitational contraction or maybe even a brief deuterium, lithium fusion stage but are now little more than a (hot) giant planet.
Do dwarf stars emit light?
Brown Dwarfs (maybe not true stars)Red Dwarfs (on the main sequence)Orange Dwarf (on the main sequence)Yellow Dwarfs (stars smaller than our sun but on the main sequence)White Dwarfs (old stars that have run out of hydrogen and are now off the main sequence)Neutron Stars (old large stars who's cores have collapsed during a supernova)---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Red dwarf - Like Proxima Centauri.White dwarf - A degenerate star. The remains of a Sun like star.Yellow dwarf - A G type main sequence star, like our own SunBlue dwarf - A hypothetical star formed from a red dwarf.Brown dwarf - A star that did not have enough mass to initiate nuclear fusion.Black dwarf - A hypothetical star formed when a white dwarf has cooled to absolute zero.Orange dwarf. A K type main sequence star, like Alpha Centauri B
Are atoms bigger than neutrons true or false?
true
Is it true that when a nova destroys the star and leave behind a white dwarf?
Not really. A Nova is an explosion around an already existing white dwarf. See related question(s).
If a is bigger than b and b bigger than c which statement must be true?
if a is bigger than b and b is bigger than c a must be bigger than c... Transitivity
Is a rhino bigger than a cat?
