∙ 14y agoThe mass of the sun is 1.99 ×1030 kg.
That is 332,946 times the mass of Earth or 1,048 times the mass of Jupiter.
The total mass of the sun is about 745 times greater than the mass of all planets put together.
The Sun contains about 99% of the total mass of the Solar System.

∙ 10y agoThe true mass of the sun is 1.99 x 10^30 kg. The true mass of the sun is about 333,000 times the mass of the Earth. Over time the mass of the sun is decreasing, as fusion reactions convert hydrogen into helium.

Is it true that the closer the planets are to the sun then the less gravity the planets have?
No. The surface gravity of a planet depends on its size and mass, not its distance from the sun.
Is the center of mass between Earth and the sun exactly half way between the two?
Yes, the center of mass for the earth-sun orbit lies inside the sun. This is the barycenter, by the way. And because the sun is so massive relative to earth, the barycenter of earth's orbit about our local star is not that far from the center of the sun and is actually inside of it.
Is it impossible for the sun to orbit the earth?
Basically, yes, it is impossible for that to happen. Technically, both of them orbit their common center of mass as opposed to one orbiting the other. However, since the Sun is so much more massive than the Earth, the common center of mass is inside the Sun, so saying that the Earth orbits the Sun is more or less true, and certainly a lot more true than saying the Sun orbits the Earth.
70 percent of sun's mass consists of?
71.0 % of the Sun's mass is Hydrogen.
Is the sun a low mass or high mass star and which stage is it in?
The Sun is a medium mass star in main sequence.
Is the sun made mostly of hydrogen and helium true or false?
True. The Sun is mainly composed of hydrogen (about 74% of its mass) and helium (about 24% of its mass). The remaining 2% consists of trace amounts of heavier elements.

Is the sun a high mass?
no the sun is a medium mass star.
What compose by the sun?
hydrogen - about 71% of the sun's mass helium- about 27.1% of the sun's mass
Is the sun mass bigger mass than earth mass?
Yes. The mass of the sun is about 333,000 times that of Earth.
Is the sun a low mass or high mass sequence star?
The sun is an intermediate-mass star.
How many times the mass of Neptune is the mass of the sun?
The sun is about 19,000 times the mass of Neptune.
Is the sun a high mass star?
no the sun is a medium mass star.
Which statement about the sun is not true?
"The sun is a giant grapefruit" is a statement about the sun that is not true.
