How is a stars life?

A star's "life cycle" depends mostly on its initial mass; everything is determined by mass. Small, low-mass stars may shine essentially forever, while very large high-mass stars may grow old and go supernova in only a few dozen million years.


What makes stars colors different?

A star's color is determined by its surface temperature. This temperature is largely dependent on the star's initial mass.


What do stars become after they die?

Depending on their initial mass, stars can become white dwarfs, neutron stars, or black holes after they die. The type of remnant left behind is determined by the mass of the star and the processes that occur during its death.


How does hyddroststic equilibrium in a star is determined by mass?

Massive stars get hotter, burn their fuel faster, and therefore live shorter.With respect to their "death": Stars of "normal" mass become white dwarves; more massive stars become neutron stars, and the most massive stars become black holes.


Is a stars eventual fate determined by its initial mass or by the mass it has at the end of it's life?

Ultimately the mass a star has at the end of its life depends on its initial mass. This mass determines what stages a star will go through in its death throws.


What are the types of suns?

The Sun is the name of the STAR we cling to. All STARS are infernos.


How do colors of stars change with temperature?

White stars are usually the hottest, followed by blue stars and then red stars.


Why are giant and super giant stars rare?

Giant and supergiant stars are rare because they represent later stages in the life cycle of a star, which are shorter in duration compared to the main sequence phase. Additionally, the formation of giant and supergiant stars requires a massive initial stellar mass, which is less common in the universe.

What property determines a stars life cycle?

The life cycle of a star is determined primarily by its mass. The hotter a star the bluer its color. The difference between apparent brightness and luminosity is that luminosity is a good indicator of the energy output of a star.
