Best Answer

A medium sized star becomes a red giant or a white dwarf - depending on the circumstances. If the star collapses further than the white dwarf it can supernova or become a blackhole. Supernova'd stars rarely become blackholes - the density of what is left is nowhere near the density a blackhole needs to be born.

What is a star that explodes in supernova what does its core become?

Depending on the Mass of the core, they either become a Neutron Star or a Black Hole.


Which kind of stars become black holes?

Only stars that are much more massive than our sun can become a black hole. When the star dies, it explodes (called a supernova) and then gravitational collapse helps it to form a black hole.

Black holes were once massive stars that used up their?

Black holes can only be created when a super massive star explodes. The star has to be 10x bigger then our sun to make a black hole. When our sun explodes it will just create a white dwarf. When the star runs out of hydrogen and helium it explodes and creates a black hole.

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.


Can a black hole become full?

No. When matter falls into a black hole it simply increases the black hole's mass, giving it stronger gravity and a larger event horizon.


A star that has collasped after using its fuel?

A star, after using all of it's fuel explodes. We call this a super nova, and after this the star will either become a black dwarf star (or maybe a white dwarf) or it will collapse in on its self creating a black hole.


How long does it take for a star to form after it explodes?

When a star explodes, that's the end of the star. The stellar remnant - either a neutron star or a black hole is created instantly.
