What is the life expectancy of a 16-solar mass star?


Question:


Answer:
Somewhere around 10 million years. This should be compared to the sun, which will last a total of 10 *billion* years.

Homework?
Much less than our sun. Larger stars have shorter life spans, but I don't exactly know the exact expectancy of a 16-solar mass star.
The life expectancy for a 16 solar mass star is 9.76 times 10 to the 6th power or 9,760,000 years.
