How many humans can fit inside the sun?

Answer 1

Many more than all the humans on earth.

If the average human has a body volume of 3 cubic feet (3 cubic foot = 0.084950539776 cubic meters). And the Sun's volume is 1.409 x 1018 1409000000000000000 Cubic kilometers (1 cubic kilometer = 1000000000 cubic meters) which means the volume of the Sun is 1409000000000000000000000000 cubic meters.

Therefore 1409000000000000000000000000/0.084950539776 people could fit into the Sun.

Answer 2

752
The sun has a diameter of 865000 miles or 1.39 million kilometers. Its diameter is 109 times the diameter of earth

The formula for volume of a sphere is V=(4/3) πr3

The volume of the sun is therefor 1093 that of Earth or 1.03 x 106 that of Earth
It would take approximately 1.3 million earth-sized objects to fit into the volume of the sun.

About 1.3 million Earth's can fit in the Sun.

The sun has a diameter of 865000 miles or 1.39 million kilometers. Its diameter is 109 times the diameter of earth. The volume of the sun is therefore 1093 (1 295 000) times that of Earth.

it takes 100 earths to make the diameter of the sun, and takes 1,000,000 earths to fill the sun.

Answer 3

About 1.3 million Earth volumes would fit into the Sun's volume.

The volume of the Sun, however, is measured by the photosphere, the outer layer that gives off energy - there is no solid surface. The outer layers of the Sun are much less dense than the Earth. Although the Sun contains 1,300,000 times the volume of the Earth, its mass is only about 322,900 times that of the Earth.

The relative spherical volumes of the Earth and the Sun are difficult to precisely determine, because the Sun's actual diameter is not based on a solid surface. The "photosphere", the visible exterior, is a tenuous gas layer of considerable thickness.

The volume can be approximated using the Sun's polar diameter and the equatorial bulge (much larger than the Earth's). This yields a volume of 1.4 x 1018 km3 for the Sun, which is between 1.2 and 1.3 million times the volume of the Earth.

Packing Process

If this were done with actual solid objects, to scale, less than a million (960,000) would fit, because packing spheres into spheres leaves space between the smaller spheres, and around the edges.

Using the mathematics of sphere-packing, the Kepler conjecture says the tightest configuration is about 74%. The full math would be:

Volume of a sphere: 4/3 x pi x radius3

Volume of Sun (Vs): ~1.4 x 1018 km3

Volume of Earth (Ve): ~1.08 x 1012 km3

Vs / Ve = 1,296,695 liquid Earths could fit in the Sun

1,296,695 x .74 = ~959,554 solid Earths could fit in the Sun

The Earth has a diameter of about 12700 kilometers (7900 miles).

The Sun has a diameter of about 1.39 million kilometers (865000 miles).

The Sun's diameter is therefore about 109 times the diameter of earth.

(*More precise measurements would have to define the surface, i.e. include or exclude the outer layers of the Sun. The Sun is not perfectly spherical and has no "solid" surface.)

Answer 4

It is impossible for any humans to fit inside the sun due to its extreme temperatures and pressures. The sun is a massive star composed mostly of hydrogen and helium gases, with a diameter of about 1.4 million kilometers. The sun's core temperature is around 15 million degrees Celsius, making it inhospitable for any form of life as we know it.

Answer 5

Well, honey, I hate to burst your bubble, but the sun is not some trendy nightclub where you can line up with your friends to get in. It's a massive ball of hot gas, so unless you want to be vaporized in a split second, I suggest you stay far, far away from trying to fit any humans inside that fiery beast.

Answer 6

Oh, dude, let me break it down for you. Technically, you could fit about 1.3 million Earths inside the sun. So, if we average out the number of humans that can fit on Earth, which is around 7.8 billion, you could say roughly 10 trillion humans could fit inside the sun. But like, who's counting, right?

Answer 7

Oh, what a happy little question! Well, the Sun is very big and very hot, but it's not a place for humans to visit. It's best to admire its beauty from afar and appreciate the warmth and light it gives us here on Earth. Let's paint a picture of a sunny day and feel grateful for the Sun's presence in our lives.

Answer 8

The sun's volume is so immense that over 1.3 million Earths could fit inside it. Therefore, it would be impossible to fit any humans inside the sun as it is a superheated ball of gas, not a hollow object with a specific capacity.

Answer 9

The sun has a diameter of 865000 miles or 1.39 million kilometers. Its diameter is 109 times the diameter of earth

The sun has a diameter of 865000 miles or 1.39 million kilometers. Its diameter is 109 times the diameter of earth. The volume of the sun is therefore 1093 (1 295 000) times that of Earth.

it takes 100 earths to make the diameter of the sun, and takes 1,000,000 earths to fill the sun.

Answer 10

Volume of similar shapes is proportional to the cube of their linear dimensions.

Diameter of the sun = 865,000 miles

Diameter of the Earth = 7,920 miles

Ratio of volumes = (865,000/7,920)3 = (109.2)3 = 1.3 million (rounded)
