It depends on the stars wave-lengths for most of it. Stars that are cool (for stars at least- measured in kelvin) normally radiate there energy in the electromagnetic spectrum as red. Even though all stars in the sky appear to be white. Hot stars radiate much larger wave lengths, causing an almost blue color to be emitted. The only way for us to know how hot a star is... is finding where it's wavelengths are at there "peek". Wave lengths are NOT visible to the human eye.

What is the relationship between the color and the temperature of star?
The relationship is that the color is an indication of the star's surface temperature. For example, red stars are cooler, while blue stars are hotter. You can find more details in the Wikipedia article "Stellar classification".
What relationship do you see between star color and star temperature?
Blue stars are the hottest, and red stars the coolest. Our sun is orangey, so it's kinda in between blue (hot) and red (cool).
A graph that shows the relationship between a star's absolute magnitude and temperature is a?
The answer to this question is Hertzsprung-Russell diagram
What is relationship between star tempertur and color?
So in terms of of color red is cool, yellow is medium, blue-violet is hot.
What property of a star does it color depend on?
The colour of a star is dependent on the temperature of the star.If the temperature is approx 30000k.Then its colour is blue. If the temperature is between 3000-4000k.Then its a red giant. If the temperature is over 5200-6000.Then its a yellow star. If the temperature is < 500k.Then its a brown dwarf. And so on

What is the relationship between the color of the star and temperature of a star?
The color of a star is related with the wavelength of the light observed. Wien's Law states that: Peak Wavelength x Surface Temperature = 2.898x10-3 Peak Wavelength is the wavelength of the highest intensity light coming from a star.
What relationship do you see between star color and star temperature?
Blue stars are the hottest, and red stars the coolest. Our sun is orangey, so it's kinda in between blue (hot) and red (cool).
Who discovered the relationship between a star brightness and temperature?
Hertzsprung and Russell.
Who discovered the relationship between the star temperature and brightness?
Hertzsprung and Russell.
What relationship is shown on the HR diagram?
The Hertzsprung-Russel diagram shows brightness versus color (the color reflects the star's temperature).
What color of a star indicate about it?
The color of the star Indicates its Temperature.
What temperature the star?
you can tell the temperature by its color
IN main sequence stars what is the relationship between brightness and temperature?
Brightness tells you the temperature and mostly temperature would tell the brightness of the star that we are talking about.
What is the relationship between the sizes of a star to its temperature brightness and its position in H-R diagram?
i hate you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
What does the HR diagram depict?
the relationship between a star's luminosity, temperature, absolute magnitude, and spectral type.
A graph that shows the relationship between a star's absolute magnitude and temperature is a?
The answer to this question is Hertzsprung-Russell diagram
