Can someone help me out with this? Which of the following types of stars is most likely to end up as a red supergiant? (I'll post the picture as soon as I figure out how...lol, I'm new sorry!)
Any help would be just peachy... xP
Ok. Before I go on with my response, I need to tell you that I am not 100% sure on this - this is only my guess. With that out of the way let's get started. Red Super-giants in particular have more red light coming from them than usual - a main sequence star should have good mix of all the different colors of light like graph B. But this red super-giant is obviously going to be red - so we need to find one that is more towards the RED color than any of the others. Does that make sense?
Thank you for helping, the answer was D. :)
