A The temperature of star B is lower
B The temperature of star A is lower
C Star A is more massive
D Star B is more massive
E Not enough information to conclude anything
This is not necessarily true. most of the time stars with a larger diameter have more mass but some stars with a smaller diameter are more dense and have a greater mass. Find a main sequence star chart and you can compare the data.
Yes. Around 76% of the stars are low luminosity stars.
The stars in the night sky shine with a remarkable luminosity.
To determine a star's luminosity is from size and temperature.
Blue stars are very hot stars and so usually have high luminosity.

Luminosity depends directly on mass because more massive main-sequence stars do not need to graviationally contract as far to reach fusion temperatures, and so they have a larger volume and contain a much larger amount of light energy, which diffuses out and generates a higher luminosity, very roughly in proportion to the higher volume.

the blue star has a hotter surface temperature than the red star. (:
If the binary stars were of too high luminosity it would be impossible to distinguish the two through vision alone. Therefore most visual binary stars are of low luminosity.
luminosity or brightness
Luminosity is the total amount of energy emitted by a star per second.
Luminosity.
The basic luminosity classes are: I for supergiants, III for giants, and V for main-sequence stars.
