What is the color size and apparent brightness of Vega Polaris and Arcturus?

Arcturus is orange in color, and has a mass of 2.188E30 kg. Vega has an apparent magnitude of 0.03, a white color, and the size is unknown. Comments. That answer does not fully answer the question. For example there's nothing about Polaris.

What brightness color of star?

The brightness and color of a star are related to its temperature and size. Hotter stars appear blue or white and are brighter, while cooler stars appear red or orange and are dimmer. The brightness of a star can also vary based on its distance from Earth.


What are the four characteristics that scientists use to classify stars?

Stars are classified by four different characteristics. Apparent magnitude (brightness) and absolute magnitude (how bright it would appear at 10 parsecs from the earth). Luminosity, another measure of brightness, compares the star to the sun's brightness. Spectral classifications are measured by the star's temperatures. Finally stars are signed a number by scientists through the Morgan-Keenan System.


Why a stars color and brightness is important?

A star's color tells us it's temperature, and indirectly, can tell us a lot about it's size. It's absolute brightness (as opposed to it's apparent brightness) also helps us define the star.
