Size of main sequence star?
A main sequence star is NOT a TYPE of star but a period in a stars evolution. Therefore all stars from the hottest to the coolest are on the main sequence at some stage - with the exception of brown dwarfs which do not reach the main sequence.
What is the color of a main sequence star?
As the HR diagram shows, the hottest stars on the main sequence range from 30,000K as blue-white stars to about 3,000K as redish stars.
What percentage of stars are main sequence stars?
Approximately 90% of stars in the universe are categorized as main sequence stars. These stars, like our Sun, are in the stable phase of their lifecycle where they fuse hydrogen into helium in their cores. Main sequence stars vary in size and temperature, leading to differences in brightness and color.
Are main sequence stars all alike in their luminosity and temperature?
No. Main sequence stars vary greatly in both temperature and luminosity. The least massive stars, red dwarfs, can have temperatures as low as 2,300 Kelvin and luminosity as low as 0.015% that of the sun. The most massive stars, which are blue in color can have temperatures as high as 50,000 Kelvin and may be hundreds of thousands times more luminous than the sun.
Why do all white dwarfs have about the same mass?
All white dwarfs do not have about the same mass. White dwarfs vary in mass because the stars they form from are not all the same mass.
What is the main sequence temperature?
The temperature of main sequence stars can vary quite a bit.

What is the difference between a neutron star and a main sequence star?
A main sequence star is what is considered a typical star. Such stars are composed primarily of hydrogen and helium. They produce energy by fusing hydrogen into helium in their cores. Main sequence stars vary greatly in mass and range from a few hundred thousand to a few million kilometers across. Our sun is a main sequence star of intermediate mass. A neutron star is the collapsed remnant of the core of a large star that was destroyed in a supernova explosion. A neutron star has a mass of about 2-3 times that of the sun compacted by gravity into an area less than 40 kilometers across, making it extremely dense. A neutron star is mostly composed of neutrons.

What is bigger a neutron star r main sequence stars?
If you refer to the diameter, a neutron is tiny - only 20-30 kilometers in diameter. In comparison, main sequence stars have a diameter of at least several hundred thousand kilometers.
What is the difference between a main sequence and a red giant?
A main sequence star is a star that is not surprisingly on "the main sequence". This is the period when a star is fusing hydrogen into helium. Most stars you see in the night sky are main sequence stars.
Will Altair soon become a supernova?
Highly unlikely in our lifetime. Altair is still on the main sequence and probably has a few billion years left on it. Even when it comes to the end of the main sequence, it may not have enough mass to become a supernova.
How does the gravity of the planet venus vary with its mass?
No, because the mass of Venus does not vary.
What shows were the subject area of a main map is located?
The subject area of a main map can vary depending on the specific show. However, some common places where the main map may be located include the title sequence of a TV show, the intro sequence of an animated series, or as a featured element in a show that involves world exploration or travel.
How do you verify that a given sequence is an AP by paper cutting and pasting method?
To verify that a given sequence is an arithmetic progression (AP) using the paper cutting and pasting method, arrange the numbers in a line in increasing order. Cut the numbers along the baseline and shift them so their ends align in a straight line. If the gaps between the aligned numbers are consistent throughout the sequence, then it is an AP. If the gaps vary, then the sequence is not an AP.
How many neutrons are in one atom?
The number of neutrons in one atom can vary depending on the element. Neutrons are one of the three main subatomic particles found in an atom, along with protons and electrons. The number of neutrons in an atom is calculated by subtracting the number of protons (atomic number) from the atomic mass of the atom.
