The star Algol is estimated to have approximately the same luminosity as the star Aldebaran and approximately the same surface temperature as the star Rigel Algol is best classified as a?
Algol is a blue main-sequence star in the constellation Perseus
Is Sirius A a main sequence star?
Polaris - the current North star is a multiple star system., consisting of the main star and smaller companions. The main star Alpha Ursae Minoris is a bright star, a 6 solar mass supergiant and it is a main sequence star. Orbiting very close to this main star is a white dwarf of roughly 1.5 solar masses. This is not a main sequence star. Orbiting further out is the third companion, a 1.39 solar mass star. This is a main sequence star. There are also two more distant components (α UMi C and α UMi D) - Polaris is thought to be part of an open cluster - I do not know if these later two stars are main sequence or not.
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.
Who won the Oscar for Visual Effects in 1977?
Star Wars won the Oscar for Visual Effects in 1977.
The Company which makes Special Effects for all Star Wars Movies is?
The company that makes all of the special effects for all of the Star Wars movies is Industrial Light and Magic.
What factor most influences a star's rate of evolution?
It's initial mass.
What is the single most important factor controlling the evolution of a star and why?
i think its 3
What is the most important factor in determining the path a star takes when it leaves the main sequence?
The main factor is its mass.
What is the most important factor of controlling the evolution of a star?
The total mass. That will determine the life cycle of the star, the nature of its death and of the remnants after its death.
What is the single important factor controlling the evolution of a star?
The total mass. That will determine the life cycle of the star, the nature of its death and of the remnants after its death.
What is the main factor that shapes the life and death of a star?
Its size (mass).
What determines the evolution of a star?
The mass of a star affects the lifespan of the star. The less the mass, the longer life span of the star. More massive stars burn up their fuel more quickly than the smaller stars. As the massive stars begin to burn the fuel and become smaller, the life span increases.
How does gravity effect stellar evolution?
Gravity effects stellar evolution by pulling down force on the stars while they are forming. Mass will determine how long the star stays alive and burning.
What occurs that causes a main sequence star to lose its equilibrium and move on to the next stage in its evolution?
This happens when a main sequence star uses up all of its fuel and swells. Next stage: Red Giant.
What is the main factor that affects the revolution of a star?
The star's diameter: smaller dense stars rotate faster than larger diffuse stars.
How is the lifetime of a star comparable to stellar evolution?
Stellar evolution is the term for the changes a star undergoes during its lifetime.
What are the release dates for Evolution of the Red Star - 1973?
Evolution of the Red Star - 1973 was released on: USA: 1973
