(study island answer= all of these statements are true)

Stars with masses less than 1.6 × 1029 kg become brown dwarfs because they are unable to reach high enough temperatures for hydrogen fusion to take place.

Extremely massive stars are able to produce supernovas, or stellar explosions, when they cease to undergo nuclear fusion or when they undergo a sudden gravitational collapse.

Low-mass stars develop more slowly than more massive stars; their lifetimes can last trillions of years as opposed to only a few million years.

How do you explain what the differences are between main sequence stars white dwarf stars and supergiant stars?

A star on "main sequence" is a period in a stars evolution.A white dwarf is a stellar remainA supergiant star is the size of a very big star.So they are completely different and not even related.


What percentage of stars are main sequence stars?

Approximately 90% of stars in the universe are categorized as main sequence stars. These stars, like our Sun, are in the stable phase of their lifecycle where they fuse hydrogen into helium in their cores. Main sequence stars vary in size and temperature, leading to differences in brightness and color.


Are main sequence stars called medium sized stars?

No. Main sequence stars are simply stars that are fusing hydrogen into helium and have a specific relationship between color and luminosity. They range from red dwarfs to large O-type main sequence stars.


Where are stars that are in there giant and super giant stages located on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram?

Stars in their giant and supergiant stages are located in the top right portion of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, also known as the "red giant branch." These stars are characterized by being large and cool compared to main sequence stars, and they represent later stages in stellar evolution.


How can a stars spectrum be different from another stars spectrum?

The differences in spectrum are mainly due to: * Differences in temperature between the stars * Differences in chemical composition * Differences in relative movement (redshift / blueshift, due to the Doppler effect)


Are most stars on the main sequence?

A majority of visible stars are in the main sequence but it is likely that there are a lot more brown dwarfs than are recorded. This is because they are stars that almost did not quite make it. They are not very luminous at visible wavelengths and so may be under-represented.


What is the name of the chart of the diagram we use to classify stars?

The chart used to classify stars is called the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (H-R diagram). This diagram plots stars based on their luminosity and temperature, helping to illustrate their evolutionary stages. It reveals relationships between different types of stars, including main-sequence stars, giants, and white dwarfs.


Is most stars sequence stars?

"main sequence" is the tern.


What are the stages of the stars life?

Nebula- protostar- Main Sequence Main Sequence- Red Giant- planetary nubula- white dwarf- black dwarf Main Sequence- Red Supergiant- supernova explosion- Nuetron star or a black hole


What are the differences between 3 4 and 5 stars hotels?

The more stars a hotel has, the better it is.


Do all stars go through all stages?

No, not all stars go through all stages of stellar evolution. The evolutionary path of a star depends on its mass. Low-mass stars like the Sun will go through stages like main sequence, red giant, and white dwarf, while high-mass stars can go through stages like supernova and neutron star or black hole formation.


What are the two stars that are not in the main sequence?

There are billions of stars that are not on the main sequence.
