Question

You slightly shrink the Sun in radius, what happens to the temperature, and then what happens next?

The temperature slightly increases, decreasing the gas pressure inside, it continues decreasing in size.

The temperature slightly increases, increasing the gas pressure inside, it then increases back in size.

The temperature slightly decreases, increasing the gas pressure inside, it then remains the same size.

The temperature remains the same, so the gas pressure remains the same inside, and nothing else happens.

The temperature slightly decreases, increasing the gas pressure inside, it then increases back in size.

We know that luminosity ,L=R2

R=radius

L=T4,Surface temperature

So We can state that radius and tem perature are directly propotional

So when radius decreases the temperature will also decreases.

When temperature decreases pressure will also increases, then increases back in size.

So last statement is correct
