The Common Core is a set of high-quality academic standards in mathematics and English language arts/literacy (ELA).ecognizing the value and need for consistent learning goals across states, in 2009 the state school chiefs and governors that comprise CCSSO and the NGA Center coordinated a state-led effort to develop the Common Core State Standards.
Spectral Types and Surface Temperatures. Spectral types are a measure of the surface temperatures of stars and are letter designations: O, B, A, F, G, K, and M. Type O stars have the highest surface temperatures and can be as hot as 30,000 Kelvins. On the other extreme, type M stars have the lowest surface temperatures and can be as cool as 3,000 K. Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram The most significant feature of the HR Diagram is that the stars are not distributed in it at random (showing any combinations of absolute magnitudes and spectral types), but rather group themselves only into certain parts or regions of the diagram thus forming several groups.
They vary in size, mass and temperature, diameters ranging from 450x smaller to over 1000x larger than that of the Sun. Masses range from a twentieth to over 50 solar masses and surface temperature can range from 3,000 degrees Celcius to over 50,000 degrees Celcius.The colour of a star is determined by its temperature, the hottest stars are blue and the coolest stars are red.The Sun has a surface temperature of 5,500 degrees Celcius, its colour appears yellow. The energy produced by the star is by nuclear fusion in the stars core.he colour of a star is determined by its temperature, the hottest stars are blue and the coolest stars are red.
