There could be many answers as dim and hot are mutually exclusive

Brightness (or dimness for that matter) is defined as a stars luminosity and it's distance from the observer.

So a hot star could be very far away and appear dim, whereas if it was relatively close, it would appear bright.

A hot but small star, would appear dim at a close distance.

However, in all likelihood the answer you might be looking for is either:

  • Neutron Star - Very small and very hot
  • White Dwarf - Small and very hot

What type of stars can the naked eye not see?

Stars can be seen (in perfect conditions with perfect eyesight) as dim as 6th magnitude. This includes all types of star. Stars which are either too far away or too intrinsically dim cannot be seen.


Why are dwarf stars dim?

Dwarf stars are dim because they are smaller and cooler than other types of stars. Their lower temperature and smaller surface area result in less light being emitted compared to larger, hotter stars. This makes them appear dimmer when observed from a distance.


Red-hot and blue-hot stars appear white to the eye because?

Red-hot and blue-hot stars emit light across a wide range of wavelengths, which blend together to create a white appearance to our eyes. The combination of the different colors of light emitted by the stars results in an overall white color when we see them.


Why is it that there are main sequence stars which are hot and others are cool and dim?

some stars are hotter than others because they have more hydrogen to use and create heat with. BTW- answered by a 6th grader.
