The densest stars are neutron stars; these are "dead stars", in the sense that they ran out of fuel and no longer convert energy. However, they still have a large amount of energy left over from the collapse, which they gradually emit.
Fusion is the main energy source for stars. It is the process by which stars convert hydrogen into helium through nuclear reactions, releasing a tremendous amount of energy in the process. Fission, on the other hand, involves the splitting of atomic nuclei and is not the primary energy source for stars.
E=mc^2 describes the relationship between energy (E), mass (m), and the speed of light (c). In the context of the Sun and stars, E=mc^2 is relevant because it explains how nuclear fusion reactions in their cores convert mass into energy, providing the heat and light they emit. This equation is fundamental to understanding the energy source that powers these celestial bodies.

No. Mass and kinetic energy are not the same thing.
its not about stars its about mass and he proposed that mass can be converted into energy
You generally need a catalyst or a mechanism to convert the energy. For example to convert fuel (a mass) into thermal energy, oxidizer and a spark are needed.

To convert energy transferred per gram to energy transferred per mole, you need to first calculate the molar mass of the substance in grams per mole. Then, you can use this molar mass to convert the energy transferred per gram to energy transferred per mole by multiplying or dividing accordingly.
The mass can be converted in energy: the equation of Einstein is: E= mc2.
generators which convert mechanical energy to electrical energy and motors which convert electrical energy to mechanical energy
The CNO cycle uses carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen as catalysts to convert hydrogen into helium, while the proton-proton chain fuses hydrogen into helium directly. The CNO cycle is more efficient in high-mass stars while the proton-proton chain dominates in lower-mass stars like the Sun.
conservation laws do apply to stars, as mass/energy is conserved by the formula E(energy) = M(mass) x C squared (speed of light), this happens as a nuclear fusion reaction when the hydrogen molecules in the stars and fused to make Helium, some mass is lost (converted to energy). cheers
Because they convert their materials into energy and energy = mass.
To convert mass energy to kilowatts, you need to first convert mass into energy using the equation E=mc^2, where c is the speed of light. Then, convert the energy into kilowatts by dividing by the desired time interval. A 100 grams of mass energy would correspond to a very large amount of kilowatts due to the speed of light being squared in the equation.
