The sun is inferred to be the most luminous when it is classified as __________.
Answer (3)
The sun is inferred to be the most luminous when it is classified as a main-sequence star of spectral type O. These stars are the most massive and have the greatest gravity, allowing them to shine with the greatest luminosity. ;
The correct answer is that it's most luminous when it is a giant star. A giant star has bigger luminosity than a dwarf of a main sequence star (sun is one) of the same surface temperature
The sun is inferred to be the most luminous when it is classified as a giant star. As it ages, it may become a red giant or even a supergiant, significantly increasing its luminosity. The classification impacts its energy output and stage in the stellar lifecycle.
