What color are stars when being born?
When stars are being born, they glow a bright red color due to the heat and energy generated during the process of nuclear fusion. This red hue is often referred to as a "protostar" and is a sign of a young, developing star.
What did Lise Meitner invent on Christmas Day in 1838?
Lise Meitner did not invent anything on Christmas Day in 1838. She was born on November 7, 1878. Meitner was a pioneering physicist known for her work on radioactivity and nuclear physics, particularly her contribution to the discovery of nuclear fission in 1938.
What process stars when a star is born?
Assuming you meant "What process starts" the answer is nuclear fusion.
When are stars born?
New stars are being born all the time. The rate of star formation in the Milky Way is about 7 new stars a year.
Stars are born when gravity pulls gas and dust together with enough pressure to ignite nuclear fusion true or false?
True.
Are stars born when gravity pulls gas and dust together with enough pressure to ignite nuclear fusion?
Yes, that's correct! Stars are born when gravity causes gas and dust in a molecular cloud to collapse under their own weight. This collapse creates high pressures and temperatures in the core of the forming star, eventually igniting nuclear fusion and creating a stable star.
How old is magnesium?
Between 10 billion and 14 billion years - depending on where it is. Sometimes it was made from fusion, other times, fission. Heavy materials are assumed to be throw offs from either stars being born or dying, sometimes the impact of 2 celestial bodies will lead to generation of different materials. Sometimes as stars use their energy it consumes the materials present and materials come out.
How are low mass star born?
Low mass stars are created in the same way as all other stars, with one exception. They do not accumulate enough mass to create enough pressure in the core for nuclear fusion to occur. They "glow" because of the external pressure on the core but this is not enough to initiate nuclear fusion.
What galaxy has arms where lots of new stars are being born?
The Milky Way galaxy has spiral arms where a lot of new stars are being born, including the Orion Arm where our solar system is located. These spiral arms are regions of higher density that promote the formation of new stars due to gravitational interactions between gas and dust.
How are nebulae and stars related?
Nebulae are large clouds of dust and gas in space where stars are born. Within a nebula, gravitational forces can cause the gas and dust to collapse and form a protostar, which eventually ignites nuclear fusion and becomes a star. Therefore, nebulae are the birthplaces of stars, and stars are formed from the material within nebulae.
