Describe what happens to a small star a medium star and a giant star when each runs out of fuel?

Answer 1

While it has fuel, the radiation will produce pressure, that keeps the star inflated. When it runs out of fuel, it will collapse into a white dwarf, a neutron star, or a black hole - depending on how much mass is left in the star.

Answer 2

When a small star runs out of fuel, it will become a white dwarf. A medium star will expand into a red giant before shedding its outer layers to become a white dwarf. A giant star will undergo a supernova explosion, leaving behind a neutron star or a black hole.

Answer 3

It expands, then explodes. The sun is a medium star and, in 5billion years, expand covering the first few planets including Earth, then explode cover are solar system {or whats let of it in pitch blackness for the rest of eternity. at least we know when judgment day is coming...

Answer 4

When a supergiant runs out of fuel, two things can happen, depending on the size of the star.

1. It can collapse under its own weight and become a supermassive neuron star.

2. It can collapse under its own weight and become a black hole if it is so heavy itys mass becomes negative on collapse.

Answer 5

when they run out of fuel they become neutron star.When they do have fuel it is called super nova.

Answer 6

they explode all of them it doesn't matter where they just go boom you know explode

Answer 7

When a low mass star eventually runs out of fuel, it will collapse in on itself and form a white dwarf star, which will gradually turn into a black dwarf as it cools.

Answer 8

They actually die, they are then at the brightest point yet (they are burning off all there gases>

Answer 9

it will lose her energy.

Answer 10

It collapses to form a neutron star or a black hole.
