What does it mean when a star goes off the main sequence?
When a star "goes off the main-sequence" it generally means the star has run out of hydrogen fuel and is beginning the post-main-sequence or its end of life phase. The main sequence of a star is the time where it is no longer just a proto-star but is burning hydrogen as a primary source of fuel.
What happens when a neutron star runs out of fuel?
Neutron stars do not have fuel. A neutron star is a remnant of a star that has already died.
What is a star that has collapsed after using its fuel?
black dwarf or neutron star
What is a star's main source of fuel?
Hydrogen
What does the amount of light a star produces tell you?
I believe the answer is, the brighter the star the more fuel it is burning
How does a star fuel?
A typical star starts out with a lot of hydrogen-1. This is the star's fuel, which is gradually converted into helium-4, and in some cases, into heavier elements.
What is a star's main fuel doing its lifetime?
For most of a star's life, the main fuel is protium (hydrogen-1), which is fused into helium-4.
The death of a star occurs when its?
When the star runs out of fuel.When the star runs out of fuel.When the star runs out of fuel.When the star runs out of fuel.
What does 4 W and the S S mean?
4 whalers and the star shooters
What does 4 w and s s mean?
4 whalers and the star shooters
When a neutron star runs out of fuel what does it become?
A neutron star is already the remains of a massive star that has run out of fuel.

What is the difference in 4 star and 3 star petrol?
The star rating is no longer used to classify petrol. The star rating was an indication of the percentage of lead present in the fuel. Commercial fuels no longer contain lead.
What does a star turn into after it runs out of fuel?
a dwarf star
What Fuel does a Star burn to create its own energy?
A star will use fusion to combine lighter atoms into heavier atoms. A main-sequence star (that's the majority of stars) will convert hydrogen-1 into helium-4, so in this case, hydrogen-1 is the fuel. Once it starts running out of hydrogen-1, it will start fusing the helium into heavier elements - in which case the main fuel will be the helium-4. Later in the life cycle of a star, the fuel can be even heavier elements.
What 3 and 4 letter words mean dignitary?
VIP, star
