- If a contracting protostar is two times the radius of the Sun and has a temperature of only 1890 K, how luminous will it be relative to the Sun?List the following 5 terms in order through a stars life cycle (starting with the sun), through the remainder of its lifetime: a. Black dwarf b. Planetary nebula c. Red giant d. Star (Sun) e. White dwarfHow is the blue color of a reflection nebula related to the blue color of the daytime sky?
- Imagine that the Earth is orbiting a white dwarf star, whose surface temperature is 20000 K. What is the apparent angular size of this white dwarf as viewed from Earth? (Express your answer in arcseconds)What causes an aging giant star to produce a planetary nebula?Why is it that stars of greater mass (and thus possess more fuel for nuclear fusion) spend less time on the main sequence of the H-R diagram than their lower mass counterparts?
