What causes a giant star to turn into a white dwarf?
A giant star would experience a supernova explosion, in order to become a white dwarf.
What will happen if the sun disappeared?
In about 5 billion years the sun will run out of hydrogen fuel, eventually expanding to become a Red Giant, this is the 2nd to last face to a star's death. It's diameter will become large enouh to emcompass Venus. The Earth's atmosphere will not survive this and will be stripped by fire, and water will boil and evaporate. Life will no longer from this moment ever survive on Earth again. After this, the sun will become a 'white dwarf' and compress to the size of earth and be brighter. Eventually it will burn out.
What does a red dwarf turn into after being a red dwarf?
A white dwarf. Basically, a red dwarf just gets cooler and cooler until it has consumed all of its hydrogen. Then it becomes a white dwarf star. It will then dissipate any remaining heat into space and eventually become a "black dwarf".
What is the Conclusion of solar system?
Actually there is a conclusion, (anything has a conclusion) The sun expand after 5 billion years, it will turn into red giant, it will reach earth. It will turn into a planetary nebula, it reaches Neptune, and it will turn into a dwarf star.
Will the sun ever become a black hole?
Our Sun will never become a black hole. It does not have enough mass and thus pressure to initial the sequences required to form a black hole. In about 5 billion years time, our Sun will slowly expand into a red giant, a billion years later it will shed it's outer envelope leaving nothing more that a very hot white dwarf about the size of the Earth. Not that we will be around to see it.
What is the final stage in the sun's life cycle?
It will expand and become a red giant
If star having the same mass of Earth's Sun is likely to become a?
Red giant - then a white dwarf.
Does the earth live forever?
No. In a few billion years the sun will expand and become a red giant and will probably consume Earth.
Why is the sun described as a star of average?
It's really a small to medium star. Later it will expand to become a red giant then contract to a white dwarf.
How many years until the sun becomes a red giant?
It is estimated that the sun will become a red giant in about 5 billion years. At that point, it will expand and consume Mercury, Venus, and possibly Earth before eventually collapsing into a white dwarf.
Will the sun expand?
It will indeed expand to a red giant in about 5 billion years. It will then subsequently collapse to a white then brown dwarf star.
What will happen to the sun when it gets old?
As the sun ages, it will expand into a red giant, engulfing the inner planets of our solar system, including Earth. Eventually, it will shed its outer layers and become a planetary nebula, leaving behind a dense core called a white dwarf. The white dwarf will gradually cool over billions of years, eventually fading into a black dwarf.
What causes a giant star to turn into a white dwarf?
A giant star would experience a supernova explosion, in order to become a white dwarf.
What stage will the Sun likely enter after the main sequence stage?
our Sun will eventually become a red giant and a white dwarf.... Once the sun finishes fusing Hydrogen into helium it will start fusing helium. It will need more pressure to do this so it will expand. But it will cool a little as it expands. It all has to do with equilibrium. Our sun will become a red giant and expand to about half way between earth's orbit and mars' orbit. This will not happen for another 5 billion years or so supposedly since as far as we can tell stars like our sun stay in the main sequence for 10 billion years give or take and our sun is about 5 billion years old or so.
When is our sun expected to blow up?
The sun is not expected to "blow up." It will gradually expand into a red giant in about 5 billion years, engulfing the inner planets including Earth, before eventually shedding its outer layers and becoming a white dwarf.
What will happen if the sun disappeared?
In about 5 billion years the sun will run out of hydrogen fuel, eventually expanding to become a Red Giant, this is the 2nd to last face to a star's death.

What will the sun become?
Long before the sun dies, its size will expand and it will become a red giant star. then after thousands of years,is will shrink, becoming a white dwarf. In the end, it will change to become a black dwarf, giving off no light or heat.
