The apparent brightness of a star is primarily affected by its intrinsic luminosity, distance from Earth, and any interstellar material that may dim its light. However, the color of the star does not directly affect its apparent brightness; it relates more to the star's temperature and stage of life rather than how bright it appears from our perspective. Thus, while color can indicate other properties of the star, it does not influence its apparent brightness.
Arcturus, the britghest star in the Northern Hemisphere, is a highly evolved Orange-Red Giant.
No, the color of a star does not directly indicate its absolute distance. Star color is related to its surface temperature, and stars of different temperatures can be located at varying distances from Earth. The brightness of a star, as measured by its apparent magnitude, is more indicative of its distance.
The apparent color of the object.
Color refers to the perceived hue of an object or light source, determined by the wavelengths of light it reflects or emits. Brightness, on the other hand, refers to the intensity of light emitted or reflected by an object, regardless of its color. Color can be affected by factors like pigmentation, while brightness is influenced by the amount of light hitting a surface.
Arcturus is orange in color, and has a mass of 2.188E30 kg. Vega has an apparent magnitude of 0.03, a white color, and the size is unknown. Comments. That answer does not fully answer the question. For example there's nothing about Polaris.

The main star in the Polaris system, Polaris Aa, is a yellow super-giant, with a radius which is 46 +/- 3 times that of the sun. Its apparent magnitude is 1.98 but it is a Cepheid variable.
Polaris, also known as the North Star, appears white to the naked eye. It has a apparent visual magnitude of around 1.97, making it one of the brightest stars in the sky. It is located in the constellation Ursa Minor (the Little Bear).

The color is described as slightly red.
The color is described as slightly red.
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.
The Arcturus Star is located in the constellation Bootes.
