E = mc2
A byproduct of the fusion reaction is a loss of a tiny amount of mass, which is converted into energy.
At the age the sun is now it is still fusing hydrogen into helium.
technically speaking, stars are first made of Hydrogen. The moment the star comes to life, it starts fusing together Hydrogen atoms, forming helium. when a star is nearing the end of its life, it starts fusing together helium and keeps on fusing until there is nothing more to fuse. then, the star dies.
The fusion of two hydrogen atoms yielding a helium atom expels a large amount energy.
The Sun energy is from hydrogen fusion.
By a nuclear fusion reaction: H + H + 2n ==>> He Yes, this is true. I want, here, to put it into a better picture for common folk. This Bang is similar to the nuclear furnace that is out Sun. There, hydrogen atoms are fusing to other hydrogen atoms. It happens because gravity strength forces them together. The result is a helium atom(s) plus excess energy. That excess radiation is what blinds you when you try to look at the sun.
Yes it does. It produces helium by fusing hydrogen
Helium atoms
The sun produces energy by fusing hydrogen atoms into helium atoms. This is a nuclear fusion that occurs at the sun's core.
The fusing of hydrogen atoms into helium.
Hydrogen: the mutual fusing of H atoms into Helium, with consequent release of energy.
The sun's energy (and that of all other stars) comes from nuclear fusion. The nuclei of hydrogen atoms (ie protons) fuse together to produce helium and release energy.
Our sun gets energy from fusing hydrogen atoms with neutrons to form helium atoms.
Nuclear fusion is a process where multiple like-charged atomic nuclei join together to form heavier nucleus. It is accompanied by the release of energy. The nuclear fusion process is responsible for the fusion of helium of hydrogen atoms into helium atoms in the core of the sun.
The sun is fusing hydrogen atoms together, turning them into helium.
No. Standard sized young Stars are made up of hydrogen atoms fusing themselves into helium atoms and giving off lots of Energy.
At the age the sun is now it is still fusing hydrogen into helium.
