What science term describes when a star explodes?
A supernova.
What is a star called right before it explodes?
Normally it is known as the supernova's progenitor star.
What is produced when a red giant explodes?
Depends on the mass of the star. A star the size of our Sun will eject its outer layers, forming a planetary nebula with the core of the star exposed, cooling to become a white dwarf. Larger mass stars will explode as a supernova, creating a shock wave of stellar matter, the core either condensing to a neutron star or a black hole.
What is a star that has produce more energy than gravity can hold and explodes?
a supernova.
Where does hydrogen fusion occur when there is no hydrogen left in the core of a star?
If there is no hydrogen left at the core of star then hydrogen fusion cannot occur. What happens in the core of a star before that happens is that helium begins to fuse, and then the other elements going up the periodic table until carbon. And then if the star explodes into a supernova, traces of the higher elements are fused as well.
What is produced when the outer core of star explodes after the core collapses?
Supernova
What is produced when the outer core of the star explodes after the core collapses?
Supernova
What is produced when the outer core of a star explodes after the star collapses?
Supernova
How are neutron stars formed?
Neutron stars are formed when stars with more than 8 times the mass of the Sun run out of fuel and explodes as a supernova. After the star explodes, the core of the star remains, the core would then become a neutron star or a black hole. If the core remain is less than 3 times the mass of the sun, it would become a neutron star.
Does red giant star bigger than sun become a nova?
Yes.When the star explodes it will become a super nova.Our sun is too smal to make a supernova when it explodes.
What is a dying star that explodes?
a supernova
Do all exploding stars create a supernova?
When a star explodes and destroys itself, leaving only a dense core behind, it is called a Supernova. The only other option is when a star goes nova, where only the outer body of the star explodes, but the stellar remnant remains in place.
Where do neutron stars form?
Neutron stars could form in places where there are high-mass stars. After the star runs out of fuel in its core, the core collapses while the shell explodes into the space as supernova. The core would then become a neutron star, it might also become a black hole if it is massive enough.
What is the significance of 3 solar masses in a star's fate?
After a high-mass star explodes as supernova and leaves a core behind, the core would become a neutron star or a black hole. If the core is less than 3 solar masses, it would become a neutron star; if the mass exceeds 3 solar masses, the core would continue to collapse, forming a black hole.
What might happened to a star after it explodes as a supernova?
The supernova remnant will either be a neutron star or a black hole.
When a very large star explodes it is called a?
supernova
What science term describes when a star explodes?
A supernova.
