Is a star's outer layer hot and dense?
Yes it is! Just like the sun. Its Corona is very hot.
When light from a star passes though the star's outer gases what happens to some of the light?
some of the light is refracted,some of it is absorbed while the rest is scattered into the space
What happens when the core of a super giant collapses while the outer part explodes and gets very hot?
A neutron star
What name is given to a layer of gases that covers a planet star or moon?
The layer of gases that covers a planet, star or moon is called the atmosphere.
Why do novae repeat while supernovae do not?
The explosion of novae hardly disturb the white dwarf or its companion star. Mass transfer resumes and a new layer of fuel can accumulate so that the process can happen all over again. In a supernovae, its the death of a star. Its theory that the outer layers of a massive star produces the supernovae while the core collapses to form a neutron star or black hole.
Is the Photosphere the outer layer on a star?
Magnetosphere is the layer above the photospere.
What is cepheid phase?
A cepheid phase is when a star starts expand and contract and it loses its outer layers in the process.at least that's what i was told.
Where on a star is the photosphere?
The photosphere is the outer part of the star that is visible, inside which the star becomes opaque to visible light. The photosphere is the layer below the star's atmosphere (the chromosphere, and so forth).
When a red giant loses its outer layer and the core shrinks to one millionth of its original size what type of star is formed?
When aÊstar completes it's Red Giant phase they become White Dwarfs. The Red Giant phase of stars takes about a billion years.
When a red giant loses its outer layers and the core shrinks to one - millionth of its original size what type of star is formed?
A white dwarf.
When a red giant loses its outer layers and the core shrinks to one-millionth of its original size what type of star is formed?
white dwarf
When a red giant loses its outer layers and the core shrinks to one millionth of its original size what type of star is formed?
white dwarf
When red giant loses its outer layers and the core shrinks to one-millionth of its original size what type of star is formed?
white dwarf
What is formed when an average size star uses up it's fuel and it outer layer expands?
A Red Giant
Is a star's outer layer hot and dense?
Yes it is! Just like the sun. Its Corona is very hot.
What happens during the life cycle of a star with two or three stellar masse?
A low mass star begins as the helium fuses into carbon and the core collapses. The outer layer of the star are expelled and form a new planetary nebula. The core remains as a white dwarf and cooled to become a black dwarf.
How do different scientists spectra to figure out the composition of a star's outer layer?
The color of the light radiated by the spectra can show the internal composition as well as the gases burning on the outer layer. Red stars are colder and blue stars are hotter.
