What else can I help you with?
Will a protostar form near the end of a star's life cycle?
No, a protostar is basically the BEGINNING of a star's life cycle.
What is the earliest stages of a star's life?
protostar
What is the initial development phase of a star's life cycle?
the answer is a protostar
What is the first star in the life cycle of a star?
The "protostar". That's not classed as a true star, but I think that's the answer.
How does a protostar differ from a star?
It doesn't differ from a star, it is a star and it is the second stage in a stars life after the nebula stage.
How does the protostar stage of a star's life cycle compare with the main-sequence stage?
A protostar generates energy by friction whereas a main sequence star generates energy by fusion.
Are protostar a star?
A protostar is more like a stage previous to a star - before it ignites.
How long does a protostar live?
A protostar will live as long as 100,000 years. After material stops falling on the protostar it will enter then T Tauri star phase.
Where does a star spend most of its life on an hr diagram?
On the main sequence.
How does the protostar stage of a stars life cycle compare with the main sequence stage?
A protostar generates energy by friction whereas a main sequence star generates energy by fusion.
Is a new star called a protostar?
Yes, a new star that is in the process of formation is called a protostar. It is the early stage in the life cycle of a star when gravitational forces are causing gas and dust to condense and heat up, eventually leading to nuclear fusion and the birth of a stable star.
How long does the protostar star life cycle stage last?
It depends on the size of the star forming. For a one solar-mass star it lasts about 1,000,000 years.
