The Sun's fusion takes place in the core. The Convective zone brings heat to the surface by thermal convection, which is basically hot plasma coming up to the surface, then cooling and sinking.
All I know is that it's either the core, chromosphere, convection layer, or the corona. Which one is it?
It has to be at hundreds of millions of degrees kelvin, before a fusion reaction between deuterium and tritium will start
The core is the innermost region where nuclear fusion occurs, generating the sun's energy. The radiative zone is a layer of the sun where energy from the core is transported through radiation. The convective zone is the outermost layer where heat is carried through convection currents.
Convection currents occur in the mantle, which is the middle layer of the Earth. The heat generated from the core causes the molten rock in the mantle to move in a circular pattern, creating convection currents.
From outermost layer to innermost layer: corona, chromosphere, photosphere, subsurface flows, convection zone, radiative zone, inner core.
Nuclear fusion occurs in the solar core.
No, the sun's corona appears to glow due to the extreme heat and energy produced by the sun's core through nuclear fusion. The corona is the outermost layer of the sun's atmosphere and is much hotter than the surface layer, giving it its distinctive glow.
The convection zone.
The layer that surrounds the core of the Sun is called the Puenelsome. Here is where Nitrogen gets converted into nuclear energy.
The innermost layer of the sun is called the core. It is where nuclear fusion reactions occur, generating the energy that powers the sun's immense heat and light.
The core of the Sun is the central region where nuclear fusion reactions take place. It is the hottest part of the Sun and is responsible for generating the energy that sustains the Sun's radiative output. The core is primarily composed of hydrogen undergoing fusion to create helium.
No, nuclear energy is not produced by sunlight. Nuclear energy is generated from the process of splitting atoms in a power plant, while sunlight produces solar energy through the fusion of hydrogen atoms in the sun.
