Do red stars have higher surface temperatures than blue stars?
No. Red stars have the lowest surface temperatures while blue stars have the highest.
Which stars have the highest surface temperatures red star or blue stars?
Blue stars have the highest surface temperature, at over 7,500 Kelvin. The surface temperature of red stars is less than 5,000 Kelvin.
Is a red star hotter than a blue star?
yes they are, in fact, white stars a hotter than blue or red star, and blue stars are varie in sizes, red stars are usually mid size or red giants or super giants. the bigger they are does not mean they are hotter!
Are main sequence stars all alike in their luminosity and temperature?
No. Main sequence stars vary greatly in both temperature and luminosity. The least massive stars, red dwarfs, can have temperatures as low as 2,300 Kelvin and luminosity as low as 0.015% that of the sun. The most massive stars, which are blue in color can have temperatures as high as 50,000 Kelvin and may be hundreds of thousands times more luminous than the sun.
Are blue-white stars the coolest?
No. Red stars are the coolest. Blue stars are the hottest.
Do red stars have higher surface temperatures than blue stars?
No. Red stars have the lowest surface temperatures while blue stars have the highest.
Which stars have the highest surface temperatures red star or blue stars?
Blue stars have the highest surface temperature, at over 7,500 Kelvin. The surface temperature of red stars is less than 5,000 Kelvin.
Do red main sequence stars have the highest surface temperature?
No. They have the lowest temperatures on the main sequence. The hottest main sequence stars are blue.
What is the upper temperature range of stars?
The hottest stars are the blue stars, the blue hypergiants in particular. One example is "R136a1", which is a blue hypergiant that has estimated surface temperatures of over 40,000 Kelvin (well over 70,000 F). Our Suns effective temperature is around 5,700K for comparison.
What is some information on blue stars?
Blue stars exhibit a moderate increase in size and luminosity compared to main sequence stars of the same mass or temperature, and are hot enough to be called blue, meaning spectral class O, B, and sometimes early A. They have temperatures from around 10,000K upwards.
How hot is the sun and the blue stars temperature are they about the same temperature?
Blue stars are much hotter than the Sun. The Sun has a surface temperature of about 5500 degrees Celsius (10,000 degrees Fahrenheit). Blue stars have temperatures of 30,000 to 53,000 degrees Celsius (54,000 to 95,000 degrees Fahrenheit). In other words, blue stars are about 5 to 10 times hotter than the sun.
Is a red star hotter than a blue star?
yes they are, in fact, white stars a hotter than blue or red star, and blue stars are varie in sizes, red stars are usually mid size or red giants or super giants. the bigger they are does not mean they are hotter!

What color are the stars the coldest?
The temperatures of stars are measured by Kelvin. The hottest, colored blue, is around 30,000 Kelvin. In the middle of the scale, colored yellow, is 5,200 -> 6,000 Kelvin. And the coldest, colored blue, at the bottom of the scale is at 0 Kelvin.
Which is cooler the blue stars or the red stars?
Red stars are cooler than blue stars
Are main sequence stars all alike in their luminosity and temperature?
No. Main sequence stars vary greatly in both temperature and luminosity. The least massive stars, red dwarfs, can have temperatures as low as 2,300 Kelvin and luminosity as low as 0.015% that of the sun. The most massive stars, which are blue in color can have temperatures as high as 50,000 Kelvin and may be hundreds of thousands times more luminous than the sun.
What are the stars in the main sequence?
The smallest stars in the main sequence are the stars with cooler surface temperatures.
