They are both hotter and cooler because the main sequence contains a lot of stars including the Sun. The main sequence is a region on a Hertzsprung-Russell diagram which plots stars on a graph of brightness against surface temperature. Each star is a point on the diagram because it has one value of brightness and one of temperature. All the main-sequence stars lie on or near a line drawn from top left to lower right. The Sun is about halfway along the main sequence.

What happens to the brightness of main sequence stars as they get hotter?
As they get hotter, they usually get brighter.
How are stars on the upper left end of the main sequence different from those on the lower right end?
The main sequence is a map of star brightness against their temperature. Stars that lie on the main sequence in the top left are the high mass stars. Cooler, smaller stars lie near the line at the lower right.
What happens to brightness as surface temperature of the main sequence stars increase?
The hotter the star, the brighter. Ex: A stove
How many stars are main sequence stars?
Of the stars you can see from Earth, 90% are in the main sequence.
Is most stars sequence stars?
"main sequence" is the tern.
Is the sun hotter or cooler than most other main-sequence stars?
Beacuse penis.
What are the stars in the main sequence?
The smallest stars in the main sequence are the stars with cooler surface temperatures.
What happens to the brightness of main sequence stars as they get hotter?
As they get hotter, they usually get brighter.
Its Cooler larger and brighter than most main sequence stars?
red giant
Are big stars cold?
No. All stars are hot. For stars on the main sequence, the largest it is, the hotter it is. When a star leaves the main sequence to become a giant or supergiant it will cool down, but will remain hot enough to glow brightly.

Explain how the Sun is different from other stars on the main sequence?
It isn't different. The sun is hotter and brighter than the average main sequence stars, but it is within what is considered normal. There is nothing extraordinary about the sun itself.
What happens to brightness as surface temperature of the main sequence stars increase?
The hotter the star, the brighter. Ex: A stove
What are the two stars that are not in the main sequence?
There are billions of stars that are not on the main sequence.
How many stars are main sequence stars?
Of the stars you can see from Earth, 90% are in the main sequence.
Is most stars sequence stars?
"main sequence" is the tern.
Are most stars in our galaxy found in the main sequence?
Most of the stars in the universe are found on the main sequence. Stars fall off the main sequence when they begin to die.
