White dwarves have run out of fuel; therefore they have stopped producing energy, through nuclear fusion. Also, they are very small - smaller than planet Earth, while (for comparison) our Sun has 109 times the diameter of Earth; they are very dense (a cubic centimeter of white dwarf matter has a mass of several tons), and fairly hot - though, since they don't produce energy, they will gradually cool down.
What else can I help you with?
Is the sun in the collection of white dwarf stars?
No, the sun is a main sequence star, not a white dwarf. White dwarfs are the remnants of smaller stars that have exhausted their nuclear fuel and collapsed. The sun will eventually evolve into a white dwarf in about 5 billion years.
A good sentence for white dwarf?
In 5 billion years time, our Sun will turn into a white dwarf.
Is it true or fault that A white dwarf star is about the same size as the sun?
False. A white dwarf star is much smaller in size compared to the sun. A white dwarf is typically about the size of the Earth, whereas the sun is much larger, around 100 times wider and more massive than a white dwarf star.
How dense is the white dwarf to your sun?
A white dwarf is much denser than the Sun. White dwarfs have a typical density around 1 million times greater than the density of the Sun, resulting in a mass similar to the Sun's but packed into a much smaller volume.
When the sun dies what kind of star will it be?
It will first become a red giant, then turn into a white dwarf and in billions and billions of years it will become a black dwarf.
The sun will eventually end up as a?
white dwarf star
Is the Sun a white dwarf before becoming its present size?
No. In about 7.5 billion years the Sun will become a white dwarf.
Is the sun in the collection of white dwarf stars?
No, the sun is a main sequence star, not a white dwarf. White dwarfs are the remnants of smaller stars that have exhausted their nuclear fuel and collapsed. The sun will eventually evolve into a white dwarf in about 5 billion years.
Will the sun become a white dwarf in the next 20 years?
No. It will become a white dwarf in about 7.5 billion years time.
What is the order from smallest to largest sun supernova red giant white dwarf?
White Dwarf, Sun, Red Giant, Supernova
Will the sun be a white dwarf for the rest of eternity?
No, the sun will eventually evolve into a red giant before shedding its outer layers and becoming a white dwarf. The white dwarf stage marks the end of its evolution, where it will slowly cool down over billions of years.
What is the size of a dwarf star?
Several times smaller than our Sun. Details vary, depending on the type of dwarf star (a red dwarf and a white dwarf are quite different things), and the exact mass.
White Dwarf is one of the final stages in?
A stars evolution. Our Sun will go yellow dwarf -> red giant -> white dwarf -> black dwarf.
What does the sun become when it burns out?
A white dwarf
Is a white dwarf a stage of evolution?
A white dwarf is the death of a medium sized star - similar to our own Sun.
A good sentence for white dwarf?
In 5 billion years time, our Sun will turn into a white dwarf.
How long will the sun be a red giant before it transitions into a white dwarf?
The sun will be a red giant for about 1 billion years before transitioning into a white dwarf.
