What is the relationship between pressure and gravity on a red giant?

To start with, the star's gravitational attraction is not sufficient to offset the outward radiation pressure. As a result, the star increases in size until the two are in balance.

What is the source of pressure in the core of a red giant that resists the force of gravity?
The energy produced by the star, which manifests itself as heat.
What is the relationship between a giant and a white dwarf?
A red giant is old to middle aged star and a white dwarf is dead star so the relationship is they are both are dead and alive.
When a star has exhausted its supply of hydrogen?
When hydrogen in the core of the star is depleted, a balance no longer exists between pressure and gravity. Core contracts, temperatures incrase. This causes outer layers to expand and cool. This star is called a GIANT.
What planet is giant with strong gravity?
Well if you're speaking about our solar system, Jupiter is the biggest giant planet with strongest gravity.
What is the gravity on a super giant?
It depends what mass it has. But usually the gravity there is weaker than in our Sun.
What happens as gravity increases to the pressure on the matter within a star?
As gravity increases so the pressure within the star increases, the matter becomes more dense and hotter, more matter is fused. The star decreases in volume initially. The thermal pressure increases to maintain equilibrium.Depending on the total mass the star may then expand to a giant or 'explode' catastrophically as a nova.
Giant waves produced by gravity are called?

How long will your sun remain a main sequence star?
When hydrogen in the core of the star is depleted, a balance no longer exists between pressure and gravity, with that the core contracts and temperature rises. This cause outer layers to cool and expand. In this late stage of the star's life cycle, it is called a giant. The sun will continue to be a main sequence for about 5 billion years, then the sun will become a giant.
What relationship do the algae have with the giant clams?

What does the pull of Earth's gravity give to all matter on Earth?
You can consider the affects of earths gravity to that of a giant magnet which attracts everything to it.
What is the relationship between mass and the and stages of stars?
The mass could either be a red giant or a super giant, they both evolve into different ways, after a star runs out of fuel, it becomes a white dwarf, a neutron star, or a black hole.
What is the relationship between mass and the end stages of stars?
The mass could either be a red giant or a super giant, they both evolve into different ways, after a star runs out of fuel, it becomes a white dwarf, a neutron star, or a black hole.
