Distances to Stars • A light year is the distance light travels in year. • Astronomers often use parallax to measure distances to nearby stars. • Parallax is the apparent change in position of an object when you look at it from different places. 20 We are learning to: explain interstellar distances are measured in light years We are looking for: the explanation of and the use of the light year *explain a light year as the distance light travels in a year *explain that distances are too great to be measured in miles or kilometers A light year is a measurement of… !. no w ’t k Id cc on el er at io d ee A 0% .. 0% n 0% Sp m e 0% Ti an ce 0% is t Distance Time Speed Acceleration I don’t know!

After answering this question, meet with a partner to compare your responses. Collaborate to make a new paired response to the question. We are learning to: examine the life cycle of a star (characteristics; HR diagram) We are looking for: a description of how stars are classified by characteristics and then organized on an HR diagram. Characteristics Size- Giant, main sequence, and dwarf Temperature- blue=hot; red=cooler Brightness- apparent brightness and absolute magnitude HR diagram shows temperature, brightness, color of stars and where the star is in its life cycle. Used to graph the surface temperature (x-axis) vs. brightness (yaxis) Hotter stars are on left side of graph; cooler stars on the right side of the graph Brighter stars on top of graph; dimmer stars on bottom of graph Characteristics of Stars • A galaxy contains hundreds of billions of stars. • The universe contains billions of galaxies. 27 Classifying Stars • Stars are classified by size, temperature, and brightness. • Temperature of a star is indicated by color, hot stars are blue & cooler stars are red. • Apparent brightness is the brightness of a star as observed from earth. • Absolute magnitude is the brightness of a star observed at the distance of 10 parsecs. 28 Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram • H-R diagram is a graph of the Milky Way galaxy. • Surface temperature is graphed on the xaxis. • Absolute magnitude is graphed on the yaxis. 29 Types of Stars • Blue super giants have a high brightness and high temperature. • Red giants & super giants have a high brightness and low temperature. • White dwarfs have a low brightness and high temperature. • 90% of all stars appear on the Main Sequence going from the upper left to the lower right corner. 30 Life Cycle of Star Interactive Video • http://www.asccsa.gc.ca/eng/educators/resources/astron omy/multimedia/module2/star_lifecycle/sta r_lifecycle.swf Which characteristic of stars cause them to be different colors? he d ee In ze si 0% lp . 0% ra tu re 0% m pe di st an ce 0% te em ic al c om po ... 0% ch a) chemical composition b) distance c) size d) temperature e) I need help. 10 Which color would describe the youngest and hottest star? blue red orange yellow I need help! 0% he llo w lp ! 0% In ee d ye ge 0% or an d 0% re ue 0% bl a) b) c) d) e) 10 Which star would be the brightest if all the stars are the same distance from Earth? a) b) c) d) e) Main sequence Red giants Red super giants White dwarf I need help. 0% M n ai se q nc ue e R ed 0% an gi R ts ed s er up 0% an gi ts W te hi 0% dw 0% f ar e In ed he . lp 10 How would you classify our star, the sun, on the H-R diagram?

We are looking for: progression of the stages of a star’s life Nebulae- cloud of gas and dust Protostar- fusion begins Main sequence- average star Giant/red-giant- more massive stars Nova/supernova - exploding star White dwarf- no nuclear process Black dwarf- no heat or light Black Hole (area of large gravitational attraction) or Neutron star (very dense star) During the Life Cycle of a Star • Stars fuse hydrogen into helium during most of their lives. • After all the hydrogen has been fused into helium, the star fuses helium into carbon, carbon into oxygen and then oxygen into iron. 40 Death of a Star • Stars use up their hydrogen and expand their atmosphere. • Stars that are less than 1.4 solar masses will shrink to a white dwarf. • Stars between 1.4 -3.0 solar masses will produce a supernova and leave a neutron star. • Stars more than 3.0 solar masses will produce a supernova and collapse into a black hole. 41 If given a protostar, what is the next likely stage of the star?
