Do medium size stars become black holes?
No. They do not have enough mass to become black holes. Depending on the mass they will either become white dwarfs or neutron stars.
Do all stars that become supernovae leave behind a neutron star?
No. The most massive stars will leave behind a black hole.
Black holes form from the remains of stars that?
"explode as supernovae". These are called Type II supernovae and sometimes a neutron star is formed, not a black hole.
What is the relationship between the words supergiant supernova neutron star and black hole?
They are all astronomical terms for stars or star related.
Are all pulsars neutron stars?
All young neutron stars in reality are "pulsars". However, for a neutron star to be termed a pulsar, it's magnetic axis has to point towards Earth. (So we can see the pulse, even though all young neutron stars have a pulse, they cannot be observed from Earth.)
What do a neutron star and black hole have in common?
Both are the collapsed remnants of massive stars.
Do massive stars become neutron stars?
Some massive stars will become neutron stars. When massive stars die they will either become neutron stars or black holes depending on how much mass is left behind.
What stars have the highest densities?
Black holes, neutron stars, and the white dwarfs
What do stars too massive to form neutron stars what do they form?
A black hole.
What do white dwarfs and neutron stars have in common?
Both white dwarfs and neutron stars are extremely dense remnants of the collapsed cores of dead stars.
What is the diffrance between stars that become white dwarfs and stars that become neutron stars?
Stars that become white dwarfs die but become black holes . Neutron stars are born from a Super Nova that stored its energy and became a neutron star.
Why is there an upper limit to the mass of neutron stars?
There is an upper limit to the mass of neutron stars because if the neutron star is too massive, neutrons would be crushed by the gravity of the neutron star, and the neutron star would collapse into a black hole.
Difference between neutron stars and black holes?
