If two stars have the same size and brightness, but one is further away, it will appear dimmer. The brightness of a star is inversely proportionate to the square of its distance. In other words, a star ten light years away will be four times dimmer than one just as bright (absolute magnitude) that is only five light years away.
Larger stars also tend to be brighter, though most of the really big stars are red giants.
The 3 factors that affect a star's brightness as viewed from earth, are: The star's age, distance from earth, and actual magnitude (scale a star's brightness is measured in).
Theres `Absolute Magnitude` which is the brightness of a star at a set distance. Then there is `Apparent Magnitude` which is the apparent brightness from earth, regardless of distance.
The brightness of a star depends on the star's temperature, size, and distance from Earth.Distance on which you can see the stars.
apparent magnitude (brightness of a star when viewed from Earth) depends on the size of the star, how hot it is, and its distance from Earth
distance from the sun and the age of the star
Distance from Earth, size of star, and temperature of star.
Distance from Earth, size of star, and temperature of star.
Three factors that affect a star's brightness are the star's distance from earth, its age and its luminosity. The farther the star is from earth, the less bright it appears. As a star increases in age, its brightness also increases. Its brightness also depends on its luminosity, which is the amount of energy the star emits per second.
No. Star color is caused by factors such as size and temperature. However, apparent magnitude (brightness) IS partially caused by distance.

"Apparent magnitude" is the star's brightness after the effects of distance. "Absolute magnitude" is the star's brightness at a standard distance.
it depends upon 3 factors,1-the distance from the earth, 2-size of star and 3-age of the star.

Absolute Brightness: How bright a star appears at a certain distance. Apparent Brightness: The brightness of a star as seen from Earth.
