Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A more massive Sun would indeed be bluer and have a hotter surface due to increased temperatures from higher gravitational forces. However, it would not necessarily be smaller; increased mass could lead to greater size depending on the specific balance of forces within the star. Earth's orbital period would be shorter due to the stronger gravitational pull of a more massive Sun, affecting the orbital velocities of planets.
