What else can I help you with?
Is the Rigel star a high mass star or a low mass star?
High mass.
What does color have to do with a star's mass?
The color of a star is mainly related to the star's surface temperature. This is only remotely related to the star's mass; for example, high-mass stars can either be very hot (blue) or not-so-hot (red), depending on the phase in the star's life.
What makes a high mass star's core collapse?
A high mass star's core collapses when nuclear fusion ceases and gravitational pressure overwhelms the radiation pressure supporting the core. This collapse leads to a rapid increase in temperature and pressure, triggering a supernova explosion.
Low mass stars will become a when they die. A high mass star will end up as a or a?
A low mass star will become a white dwarf star, eventually this will cool to become a black dwarf. A high mass star (at least 8 times the mass of our Sun) will form a neutron star or a black hole, after a supernova event.
Is the Altair star high mass?
Altair is classified as an A-type main-sequence star, which means it is relatively high-mass compared to other stars like the Sun. Its mass is estimated to be about 1.8 times that of the Sun.
Is the Rigel star a high mass star or a low mass star?
High mass.
What is the temp of high mass star?
Eta Carinae, with a mass 180 times that of the sun has a surface temperature of around 40,000 K. It is the hottest known star.

What makes a high mass star's core collapse?
A high mass star's core collapses when nuclear fusion ceases and gravitational pressure overwhelms the radiation pressure supporting the core. This collapse leads to a rapid increase in temperature and pressure, triggering a supernova explosion.
What is the left over mass of a high mass star called?
A high mass star will leave behind either a neutron star of a black hole.
Is rigel a high or low mass star?
High mass.
Is the sun a high mass star?
no the sun is a medium mass star.
Why the temperature of the stars vary from one another?
The temperature in the core of a star depends, to a great extent, on:* The star's mass. The general tendency is that high-mass stars are hotter. * Where the star is in its life cycle. The star's core temperature will vary over time. On the other hand, the star's surface temperature also depends on its size. Thus, it is possible that PRECISELY because a star is hotter in the core, it gets bigger, and the surface temperature DECREASES (though its total energy output increases).
What determines the temperature in the core of a star?
The star's mass determines the temperature in its core. A stars mass will also determined it size and the amount of gravitational pull it will have.
How does a blue star become a yellow star?
It can't. A blue star is a high-mass star. A yellow star has a medium mass.
Is the sun a high mass?
no the sun is a medium mass star.
Low mass stars will become a when they die. A high mass star will end up as a or a?
A low mass star will become a white dwarf star, eventually this will cool to become a black dwarf. A high mass star (at least 8 times the mass of our Sun) will form a neutron star or a black hole, after a supernova event.
