What does supernova mean for kids?
A huge explosion from a dying star.
What is a small dim star that is the leftover center of an old star?
a white dwarf
Is a black hole a supernova remnant?
No, a black hole is not typically a supernova remnant. A black hole is formed when a massive star collapses under its own gravity, creating a region of spacetime from which nothing, not even light, can escape. On the other hand, a supernova remnant is the leftover material from a massive star's explosion in a supernova event.
What is the explosion of a dwarf star called?
The explosion of a dwarf star is called a nova or a supernova, depending on the type of dwarf star and the circumstances of the explosion. Novas are less powerful explosions caused by a white dwarf siphoning material from a companion star, while supernovas are much more energetic explosions that can occur in white dwarfs or other types of stars.
How does a supernova explosion start the evolution of a star formation again?
The star that exploded is never going to become a new star, since a lot of the star imploded too, and it's now a super-dense neutron star. If it's really lucky it's a black hole. The part that will create new star formation is the gas and various elements that escape in the explosion, forming nebulae. Over time these clouds of gas find gravitational centres, and eventually materials attract and form new bodies. Everything here on earth was once part of a dying star!
What does supernova mean for kids?
A huge explosion from a dying star.
What do you call a huge explosion in which a large star may die?
This is a supernova.
What describes how a star's life cycle end?
The star will blow out its outer layers in a huge explosion called a supernova.
What forces are at war within a star?
A star is the equilibrium of the outward force a continuous fusion explosion versus the inward force of the gravity of its huge mass.
What forms a black hole?
When a massive star dies, gravity forces it to fall in on itself, and the result is a gigantic explosion called a hypernova. The leftover of a hypernova is a black hole.
What forms leftover material from a supernova?
The leftover material from a supernova explosion forms either a neutron star or a black hole, depending on the mass of the collapsing core. A neutron star is extremely dense and composed mostly of neutrons, while a black hole is a region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that not even light can escape.
What is a small dim star that is the leftover center of an old star?
a white dwarf
What effect will a nova have on a star?
It will destroy it in a cataclysmic explosion.
What occurs before a supernova explosion?
Nuclear fusion stops and the star is no longer capable of transformming LIGHTER elements into HEAVIER. elements. At this point GRAVITY looses out and PRESSURE wins out thereby causing the supernova explosion. But bear in mind, there is a HUGE difference between an ordinary star going NOVA and a SUPERNOVA.
Describe how a supergiant become a supernovia?
Gravity makes the supergiant collapse. Particles smashes into the center of the star make it so hot that a huge explosion occurs-a supernova
What is it called when a star becomes brighter as a result of a sudden explosion?
Once a star explodes, it's no longer a star. The explosion itself is referred to as a "Super Nova."
How does a star work?
an active explosion:)
