When the protostar accumulates enough mass and the pressure in the core reaches 10 millions degrees Kelvin. then hydrogen fusion can start and the star starts its main sequence phase.

When a star is fully formed which type of star does it become?
A Main Sequence star.
Which process produces the energy radiated by the star when it become a main sequence star?
nucleur fusion
What will be the sun be white dwarf or a main-sequence star?
Right now the sun is a main sequence star. When it uses up the hydrogen in its core it will become a red giant then shed its outer layers to become a white dwarf.
What is the main source of energy of a star as it grows in size to becomes a red giant?
A main sequence star burns hydrogen to helium. Once a main sequence star exhausts all of the hydrogen, it begins to expand and burn helium causing if to become a red giant.
Is betelgeuse a main sequence star?
No, Betelgeuse has already past that stage and has become a red supergiant.

When does pro-to star become a star?
I actually thought that would be when the star starts fusing hydrogen into helium... But apparently there are other stages between those two.According to Wikipedia, "[The protostar phase] ends when the protostar blows back the infalling gas and is revealed as an optically visible pre-main-sequence star, which later contracts to become a main sequence star."Pre-main sequence means the star is not yet on the main sequence; and that, in turn, basically means that it is not yet fusing hydrogen into helium.
When a main sequence star has the fuel in its core it becomes?
The next step in its life is to become a "red giant" star.
Is a red giant star considered to be a main sequence star?
No. Red giants are not on the main sequence.
When a main-sequence star has exhausted the fuel in its core it becomes a .?
The next step in its life is to become a "red giant" star.

Is betelgeuse a main sequence star?
No, Betelgeuse has already past that stage and has become a red supergiant.
Does a red main sequence star have fusion?
A red main sequence star would be a red dwarf or a branch red giant. To be on the main sequence, you have to have hydrogen nuclear fusion.
Main sequence star distance from earth?
The sun is a main sequence star, so 1 AU.
Name an example of a main sequence?
The sun is a main sequence star
