What does a star's position in the main sequence tell you about that star?
It's luminosity and it's temperature.
What type of star is the sun classified as?
The sun is a G-type main-sequence star (G V). It may be referred to as a yellow dwarf, or G dwarf star. Alternately it may be called a main-sequence star of spectral type G and luminosity class V.
What does the life span of a star depend on?
How massive it is and its luminosity (the mass and luminosity correlate with each other with most stars, mainly the main sequence stars). The more mass a star has, the shorter its lifespan.
Where a main sequence star is located on the H-R diagram depends on its temperature and its?
Main sequence stars are located on the H-R diagram based on their luminosity or absolute magnitude verses their spectral class and effective temperature.
What would be the absolute magnitude and color of a main sequence star with a luminosity of 100?
Absolute magnitude = -0.5Colour would depend on it's temperature.
What does a star's position in the main sequence tell you about that star?
It's luminosity and it's temperature.
How does the diameter and luminosity of a main sequence star change when it becomes a giant or a supergiant?
In that case, both the star's diameter and its luminosity greatly increase.
The star Algol is estimated to have approximately the same luminosity as the star Aldebaran and approximately the same surface temperature as the star Rigel Algol is best classified as a?
Algol is a blue main-sequence star in the constellation Perseus
Which type of star best obey mass-luminosity relation?
Main sequence stars

How massive it is and its luminosity (the mass and luminosity correlate with each other with most stars, mainly the main sequence stars). The more mass a star has, the shorter its lifespan.
What is a Subdwarf star?
A star with luminosity class VI under the Yerkes Spectral Classification System. They have luminosity 1.5 to 2 magnitudes lower than main-sequence stars of the same spectral type.
Where a main sequence star is located on the H-R diagram depends on its temperature and its?
Main sequence stars are located on the H-R diagram based on their luminosity or absolute magnitude verses their spectral class and effective temperature.
What is a Polaris star luminosity?
The main star in the Polaris system has a luminosity which is 2500 times that of the Sun.
Measurements indicate that a certain star has a very high luminosity 100000 times your sun but yet has a temperature that is cooler than the sun?
It could be a main sequence star.
What would be the absolute magnitude and color of a main sequence star with a luminosity of 100?
Absolute magnitude = -0.5Colour would depend on it's temperature.
What is the spectral class of a main sequence star with a luminosity 0.001 times that of the Sun?
