Why mass is so important in determining the evolution of a star?
Hydrogen, helium, and carbon fuel are found in more massive stars. The diameter of more massive stars is bigger. Helium is found in greater abundance in more massive stars. The weight of more massive stars is greater.
As heavier elements are formed by fusion a massive star expands into?
Stellar evolution
What determines the evolution of a star?
The mass of a star affects the lifespan of the star. The less the mass, the longer life span of the star. More massive stars burn up their fuel more quickly than the smaller stars. As the massive stars begin to burn the fuel and become smaller, the life span increases.
What is a massive collapsed star?
A massive collapsed star is a dead star.
Suppose there are two stars A and B with the same luminosity. If star A is larger then star B then we can conclude that?
A The temperature of star B is lower B The temperature of star A is lower C Star A is more massive D Star B is more massive E Not enough information to conclude anything
What is the difference between the evolution of a one solar mass star amd more massive star?
lots of things Why do u care

What is the first step of stellar evolution?
The formation of a protostar from a nebula. As the protostar forms, it accretes more mass from the cloud and spins. As it gains more mass, it eventually becomes massive enough to ignite the core and become a star. The protostar is the first step in the evolution of any star.
What forms massive stars?
Stars are made mostly from hydrogen. The more hydrogen available when a star is formed, the more massive it will be.
Is the sun a massive star or a dwarf star?
its not a massive or a dwarf star
What is a massive collapsed star?
A massive collapsed star is a dead star.

How long does the main phase last in a massive star?
The more massive the shorter - down to just millions of years.
What makes a star's mass the most important parameter for predicting its future evolution?
If a star has more mass, there will be more gravitational attraction. The star's material will get closer together, and the star will have more temperature and more pressure.
What is before a neutron star?
A normal (but fairly massive) star.A normal (but fairly massive) star.A normal (but fairly massive) star.A normal (but fairly massive) star.
