Are the hottest main sequence starts also the most massive?
Yes, generally the hottest main sequence stars are also the most massive. This is because more massive stars have higher core temperatures and pressures, resulting in hotter surface temperatures. Therefore, there is a direct correlation between a star's mass and its surface temperature on the main sequence.
What are the main sequence stars also called?
There is no specific name of such stars. In stellar models they are given the classification of O-type main sequence stars.
What kind of stars are 90 of all Stars?
main sequence stars , our sun is also a main sequence star
Main sequence stars are also called stars?
A "main sequence star" is not really a type of star but a period in a stars life. When a star is in "main sequence" it is converting hydrogen into helium. It is then usually called a dwarf star. This is the longest period in a stars lifetime. Our Sun is a yellow dwarf in "main sequence".
What is the second hottest star?
Yellow stars are the second hottest, Blue stars are the first hottest. Red stars, even though they are they can be the biggest they are the coldest type of star, they are still hot, but not as hot as compared to other stars.
Size of main sequence star?
A main sequence star is NOT a TYPE of star but a period in a stars evolution. Therefore all stars from the hottest to the coolest are on the main sequence at some stage - with the exception of brown dwarfs which do not reach the main sequence.
About 90 of all stars are what kinds of stars?
About 90% of all stars are main sequence stars, including our Sun. These stars are in the stable phase of their lifecycle, where they fuse hydrogen into helium in their cores. Main sequence stars are the most common type of stars found in the universe.
What is the hottest star in the solar system?
There is only one star in the solar system that is the sun. So to answer your question the sun is. The sun is a main sequence star also. The hottest stars are blue/white ones followed by stars like our own than the coolest stars are red ones
Does temperature determine a stars colors?
yes, red stars are the lowest in temperature, while white stars are the hottest. Their age may also effect their color though.
Most stars are what kind of stars?
Most stars in the universe are main sequence stars. These stars are in a stable phase of their life cycle where they generate energy through nuclear fusion in their cores. The Sun is a main sequence star.
What is the hottest day in Death Valley?
There is a reason its called Death Valley. The hottest day ever there is also the hottest temperature ever recorded on Earth-- 134 degrees in 1913.
What characteristics make white dwarf stars different from main sequence stars?
White dwarf stars are much smaller and denser than main sequence stars, as they are the remnants of stars that have exhausted their nuclear fuel. They have no nuclear fusion reactions occurring in their cores and are supported by electron degeneracy pressure. White dwarfs are typically much cooler than main sequence stars, emitting most of their energy in the form of visible light rather than as high-energy radiation.
