When a main sequence star runs out of fuel it becomes a?

Either a giant or a super giant. Giants will eventually collapse on its core and have a little white dwarf left behind, but they will have the same mass and gravity as the old star. Supergiants will collapse but in an explosion, supernova, and they will either become a nuetron star or a black hole.


What happens when a star uses its hydrogen?

When a star uses the hydrogen in its core it will start burning hydrogen in a shell around the core and become a red giant. After that the star will either collapse into a white dwarf or start fusing helium, depending on its mass.


What makes a high-mass stars core collapse?

the high mass star's core collapse because its gravity


How are giant stars and white dwarf related?

A giant star is a dying star that expanded, and the core shrinks are the same time. When the shell of the giant star drift into space as planetary nebula, the core became a white dwarf. The white dwarf is made from the core of the giant star.


What makes a high mass star's core collapse?

A high mass star's core collapses when nuclear fusion ceases and gravitational pressure overwhelms the radiation pressure supporting the core. This collapse leads to a rapid increase in temperature and pressure, triggering a supernova explosion.


What force makes a red super giant collapse?

a strong gravitational force which means that the star will collapse in on itself


How is the red-giant formed?

A red giant forms when a star runs out of hydrogen fuel at its core and starts fusing hydrogen in a shell around the core the core. This causes the star to expand and cool.


What metal causes the death of red giant?

The heaviest element that can be produced in the core of a massive star before it goes supernova is iron. Iron does not cause the death of a red giant, but rather the inability to continue nuclear fusion in its core, leading to its collapse and eventual explosion as a supernova.


How long does it take for the core of a massive star to collapse once fusion ceases?

Once fusion ceases in a massive star, it takes only a few seconds for the core to collapse and undergo a supernova explosion.


What are the Stages of a star?

What can a super giant star exsplode as?

A super giant star can explode in a spectacular event called a supernova. During a supernova, the star releases an immense amount of energy and blasts its outer layers into space. This explosion can also create heavy elements through nuclear fusion.


Produced when the outer core of a star explodes after the core collapse?

A black hole or a neutron star, depending on the mass of the remaining core. Also a lot of material is ejected into space.
