nucleur energy. its the energy formed when mass transforms into energy according to E=mc^2. (m=mass in kilograms, c=speed of light in meters/sec, and E=energy in joules. The basic meaning of the equation is that even a little mass transforms into a lot of energy. In the sun, it is so hot and pressures are so high that mass transforms constantly in a process called fusion, where two atoms fuse together and some of the mass is transformed into energy.

How is the chemical energy in fossil fuels related to the sun's energy?

Fossil fuels are formed from organic matter that originally obtained its energy from the sun through photosynthesis. This organic matter stored the sun's energy in the form of chemical bonds, which is released as chemical energy when the fossil fuels are burned. So, the chemical energy in fossil fuels can be traced back to the sun's energy.

What are the nonrenewable fuels start with the sun as there primary source of energy?

Nonrenewable fuels that start with the sun as their primary source of energy are fossil fuels. These fuels are created from organic materials that have been subjected to high pressure and heat over millions of years, which originally derived their energy from the sun. Examples include coal, oil, and natural gas.

How much energy is produced compare to fossil fuels?

well that depends compare to solar energy i think fossil fuels make the most energy out of any other kind of energy because they have coal, petroleum, oil and natural gas in wish solar energy depends on the sun and wind energy in the wind that is why fossil fuels produced more energy than any other.

What role does the sun play in making fossil fuels?

Fossil fuels wwwwwwwere once living plants and animals. If they were plants they got their energy from the sun, and if they were animals they got their energy from eating plants who got their energy from the sun, or from eating animals who ate animals who ate plants who got their energy from the sun. In other words the sun is the source of all energy. The sun´s energy is stored in living beings, in plants and the animals that eat the plants, and if conditions are right, that energy is then stored in the form of fossil fuels.
