1. Most of the stars on the HR Diagram are classified as which type of star? 2. What is the color of the stars with the lowest surface temperature?

3. What is the color of the stars with the highest surface temperature?

4. Is the surface temperature of white dwarf stars higher or lower than red super giants?

5. What type of star has a low temperature but a high luminosity?

1. Main Sequence - middle life 17

2. red

3. blue

4. White dwarf stars are much hotter than Red Supergiants 15. List the color of the stars from hottest to coldest: Blue, White, Yellow, Orange, Red 16.

5. red giants

Explanation:

Main sequence stars have a Morgan-Keenan luminosity class labeled V. red giant and supergiant stars (luminosity classes I through III) occupy the region above the main sequence. They have low surface temperatures and high luminosities which, according to the Stefan-Boltzmann law, means they also have large radii. White dwarf stars are much hotter than Red Supergiants 15. List the color of the stars from hottest to coldest: Blue, White, Yellow, Orange, Red 16. The hottest stars are the blue stars. A star appears blue once its surface temperature gets above 10,000 Kelvin, or so, a star will appear blue to our eyes. The lowest temperature stars are red while the hottest stars are blue. Astronomers are able to measure the temperatures of the surfaces of stars by comparing their spectra to the spectrum of a black body. Most stars, including the sun, are "main sequence stars," fueled by nuclear fusion converting hydrogen into helium. ...

As stars begin to die, they become giants and supergiants (above the main sequence).
