Medium Star Article

Medium stars expand, as they grow old. Their core starts to run out of hydrogen and helium. Then the outer layer expands, cools, and it becomes less bright and it becomes a red giant. Now that the star is a red giant, the outer core of the star continues to expand. The helium in the core fuses together and form carbon atoms, which then release energy. Then the outer layers of the star start to drift away and form a planetary nebula.

The nebula starts to cool and shrink in size. Now the star becomes a white dwarf. It is a stable star with no nuclear fuel. The white dwarf radiates its leftover heat for billions of years until it all it has been used. Now it will become a black dwarf (A cold, dark dead star).

Read About Huge Stars

As huge stars grow old, they become red super giants. They become red super giants because their core fuses all its hydrogen into helium. Their core shrinks and becomes hotter and denser.

The core of the star collapses in an instant. The iron atoms are crushed together during the gravitational collapse. The temperature of the core reaches 100 billion degrees.

The electrical forces between the atoms' nuclei become greater than the gravitational forces, which cause a bright, short explosion called a supernova. The shock wave of the explosion blows away the outer layers of the star.

The star will become a neutron star or a black hole depending on its remaining mass. If its mass is 1.5 to 3 times the Sun's mass, (1.99 x 1030 kg) it will collapse and become a neutron star. Its mass is 1.4 times the Sun's, it has a strong magnetic field, and it spins rapidly.

If the mass of the star is more than 3 times the Sun's mass, it will become a black hole. A black hole has a gravitational field strong enough to keep light from escaping.

Yamaha in the Market

The Yamaha Gladiator SS has fought hard and still offers honest value for its price. It is a good motorcycle and ahs its strength but fails to match the Honda CBF Stunner as an overall package. The CBF Stunner is worth its premium sticker price and the better motorcycle of the two top put your money on if you are in the market for a sport 125. It excels thanks to its class-leading style, willing and comparatively fuel efficient engine as well as a superior riding position and better handling. Thatís not all. The Stunner looks so good that Honda dealers are certain to find themselves in a spot trying to explain to Unicorn customers how this 125cc model looks better than its more up market 150cc sibling.
