The surface temperature of the sun is roughly 5,800K, so the color of most of the photons that leave the sun's surface is green.

How is energy transferred from the suns core to the Suns surface in the radiative zone and in the convective zone?

In the Sun's radiative zone, energy is transferred through radiation, where photons are absorbed and re-emitted by particles, taking a long time—up to thousands of years—to reach the outer layers. In the convective zone, energy transfer occurs via convection, where hot plasma rises to the surface, cools, and then sinks, creating a continuous cycle that efficiently transports energy to the Sun’s surface. This combination of radiative and convective processes ensures that energy generated in the core eventually reaches the surface, where it can radiate into space.


What color is hottest part of the suns surface?

The hottest part of the Sun's surface is the core, which reaches temperatures of around 15 million degrees Celsius. This region does not have a distinct color as it emits energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation across the entire spectrum from radio waves to gamma rays. The visible surface of the Sun, called the photosphere, appears white to our eyes.


Are the suns rays concentrated over a smaller surface in winter?

yes they are


What is the suns subsurface flows?

Subsurface flows of the sun is the flow of h20 (water) beneaths Earths surface. It may aid the Suns 11 year old sunspot cycle. Also is carrying away anuglar momentum :)


How many suns fit between the earth and the sun?

The Earths orbital distance from the sun is 149,597,890km (92,955,820 miles) on average, enough to fit 107 more suns between the suns surface and Earth.

What is The path of the photons through the suns plasma is called?

The path of photons through the Sun's plasma is called radiative diffusion. Photons travel through the Sun's plasma by bouncing off charged particles in a random walk pattern until they reach the surface and are emitted as sunlight.


What color is the sun and why?

the suns colour is white, allthough from the surface of the earth it may appear yellow because of atmospheric scattering of blue light.

What is the process that transfers the suns energy the rest of the way to the suns surface?

The process that transfers the Sun's energy the rest of the way to the Sun's surface is called radiation. Energy generated in the Sun's core through nuclear fusion moves outward towards the surface primarily through radiation. Photons generated in the core bounce around, gradually making their way outwards in a process that can take thousands of years before reaching the surface and being released as sunlight.
