How much mass does the sun lose every second?

Yes, the mass of the sun is decreasing because of the continuous nuclear fusion processes that are responsible of the solar energy that reaches us as heat and light. However, this decrease is very much negligible that it could not be noticed any decrease in sun size. Each one second, about 616 million tonnes of hydrogen changes to about 612 million tonnes of helium and the mass difference is demonstrated as energy.


How much energy does the sun produce every second?

The sun produces 4 billion kilograms of energy per second..


How does weight change as you move away from or towards the center of gravity?

Weight is technically the force that gravity exerts on you. Mass is how much matter you "are". Mass times the acceleration of gravity will equal your weight. Newton discovered that the force of gravity [your weight] is equal to a constant times the mass of the planet times the mass of you all divided by the radius to the center squared. This equation shows that the weight is inversely proportional to the radius to the center squared. Thus, as the radius to the center increases, the weight will decrease. So if you move away, your weight will decrease.


Force mass multiplied by acceleration .....how much force is needed to accelerate a 1000-kg car at a rate of 3 meters per second squared?

Well force=mass x acceleration. Force in Newtons (N) Mass in kg Acceleration in metres per second squared. force = 3000N 3,500 N


How does the sun prodace trmendous energy it releases every second?

It produces so much energy because of the nuclear fusion reaction that happens in the Sun's core every second. Nuclear fusion releases tremendous amounts of energy.

How much of the sun's mass is to energy every second?

About 4 million tonnes of matter are converted to energy every second in the Sun. See related question.


Can we say mass vary with temperature for exp the mass of solid increase or decrease when temperature increase?

Mass of any chemical, in Chemistry, is always constant, no matter how much you change the conditions.


What happens if you get too much of vitamin a?

If you do not have vitamin a you'll lose weight and muscle mass and a decrease in immune response.

How much do turtles eat?

When volume is increased does pressure increase or decrease?

Neither. Volume is independent of mass. Effectively, if you increase the volume of a substance you are moving the particles that comprise that substance apart. Eventually, you would have a gas which expands to fill the volume of its container.


How much force is needed to accerlate an object at a rate of 2 meters per second per second?

That also depends on the object's mass. Use Newton's formula: force = mass x acceleration. If mass is in kg. and acceleratoin in meters per second square, force will be in Newton.


How much water pours over Victoria every second?

How much weight is lost to the Sun's mass as the sun burns up?

About 4 million tons per second. Note: This is MASS, not weight.


Why should astronauts exercise regularly while on a space mission?

While in weightlessness, your bone density and muscle mass decrease as you don't use them. So, by doing several hours of exercise a day, you are using the muscles and bones, therefore, the bone density and muscle mass do not decrease as much as they would if they didn't exercise.
