A star's color corresponds to its temperature because of Wien's Law, which states that hotter objects emit more energy at shorter wavelengths (blue light) and cooler objects emit more energy at longer wavelengths (red light). Therefore, a star with a higher temperature will appear bluer, while a star with a lower temperature will appear redder.

Why are stars yellow?
Some stars appear yellow because either they are yellow or the white color can appear different. The spectral types F and G (our sun), contain yellow stars. This is caused by their temperature.
What reveals the stars temperature?
The color of a star reveals its temperature. Blue stars are hotter than red stars, with temperatures ranging from about 10,000 K to 40,000 K and higher for the most massive stars.
What information does the color of a star provide?
The color of a star provides information about its temperature. Blue stars are hotter than yellow stars, which are hotter than red stars. This color-temperature relationship helps astronomers understand the life cycle and characteristics of stars.
Are stars all the same color?
Stars come in different colors based on their temperature. Hotter stars appear blue or white while cooler stars can appear red or yellow. The color of a star is an indication of its temperature and stage in its life cycle.
How do stars get there color?
The color of a star is determined by its surface temperature. Hotter stars appear blue or white, while cooler stars appear red. This is due to the different wavelengths of light emitted based on the star's temperature.
What are the different colors of stars and what do they mean?
Different colors of stars "usually" means different temperatures. I don't remember the temperature that each color corresponds with, but when stars are different colors it is usually due to their temperature.
Why are stars yellow?
Some stars appear yellow because either they are yellow or the white color can appear different. The spectral types F and G (our sun), contain yellow stars. This is caused by their temperature.
What is the color of stars with the lowest surface temperature?
the color of stars with the lowest surface temperature is red
How do stars get their colors?
The Color of stars depends upon their surface temperature.
What reveals the stars temperature?

What reveal a stars temperature?
It's color.
What determines color of the stars?
The temperature determines the color of the star!:)
What are the temperature and brightness of stars indicated by?
The temperature of a star is indicated by its color, with blue stars being hotter than red stars. The brightness of a star is indicated by its apparent magnitude, with lower numbers representing brighter stars.
What stars are hot and which are cold?
All stars are hot. Their temperature can be determined by their color. The "coolest" stars are red in color. As temperature increases stars will go through orange, yellow, white, and finally blue for the hottest stars.
What is the color of the star with the lowest surface temperature?
the color of stars with the lowest surface temperature is red
Are stars all the same color?
Stars come in different colors based on their temperature. Hotter stars appear blue or white while cooler stars can appear red or yellow. The color of a star is an indication of its temperature and stage in its life cycle.
