If you were to compare three stars with the same surface temperature, with one star being a giant, another a supergiant, and the

third a main-sequence star, how would their radii compare to one another?

Answer:

Radii of Super giant > giant > main sequence star.

Explanation:

A star becomes a giant after all the hydrogen available for fusion, in a main sequence star is depleted and its outer shell of the star expands.

Super giant and giant stars are very large in size compared to a main sequence star. For example, if a giant star has 20 times the diameter of main sequence star, the super giant's diameter is almost 300 times or even more than a main sequence star.  

Most of the stars are main sequence stars. After a star has spent a few million or even a few billion years as a main sequence star, it becomes a giant and a super giant star. These are the later stages of development of development of the main sequence star. Giant and super giant phase of a star's life is very short compared to the main sequence star.

Tresset [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

The area of a circle is given b

A=πr²

Then,

dA/dr= 2πr

Also give that,

dr/dt=30m/hr, r=100m

We want to find dA/dt

dA/dt=dA/dr×dr/dt

dA/dt= 2πr × 30

dA/dt= 2 ×π ×100×30

dA/dt=18849.56m²/s.

The rate of the area is 18849.56m²/s
