What else can I help you with?
Is a small star brighter than a large star?
It all depends on the luminousity of the star and the relative distance of the observer.
Is the white dwarf a large star that is relatively cool?
No it is a small star (about the size of Earth) that is VERY dense and quite hot (although it is not producing new energy).
What 3 factors affect how bright a star appears from earth?
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).
How far away is the closest star to the sun?
The nearest star(s) to our sun are the Alpha Centauri group. One small star is orbiting one big star. When the large star is in front of the small star (from our view on earth) the big star, Alpha Centauri, is closest. When the small star swings in front of the big star, the small star (Beta Centauri) is closest
What is the sun is the sun big or small?
The sun is a medium-sized star compared to others in the universe. It is classified as a G-type main-sequence star, or more commonly known as a yellow dwarf star. Its size appears large to us because it is the closest star to Earth.
Is a small star brighter than a large star?
It all depends on the luminousity of the star and the relative distance of the observer.
Is a white dwarf considered large or small star?
A white dwarf is very small as stars go; comparable in size to a small planet such as Earth.
Is a supernova bigger than earth?
Much bigger. Earth is a relatively small planet, much smaller than even a dwarf star. A supernova is a very large star exploding.
Is the white dwarf a large star that is relatively cool?
No it is a small star (about the size of Earth) that is VERY dense and quite hot (although it is not producing new energy).
Which magnitude would be associated with the brighter star?
The greater a star's magnitude, the brighter it appears in the sky. Magnitude is a scale of apparent brightness as seen from Earth and says nothing about how large a star actually is or how much energy it is radiating. A small star that is closer may have a greater magnitude, as seen from Earth, than a large, active star that is much further away.
How large are black holes?
Theoretically they can be as large as a small star or as large as a galaxy

Is the large Magellanic cloud a star?
No. It is a small galaxy.
What is the element for sunlight?
because it reflecs the earth and a large star
Is the earth's convection are large or small?
Relative to what?
