The Sun produces energy by fusing hydrogen atoms into atoms in its core.?

Yes it does. It produces helium by fusing hydrogen


The primary source of energy for the Sun is?

The fusing of hydrogen atoms into helium.


What kinds of atoms are fusing or combining together inside the sun?

Hydrogen atoms are fusing into helium atoms in the Sun's core through the process of nuclear fusion. This fusion reaction releases a tremendous amount of energy that powers the Sun and produces light and heat.


What energy has sun fusing hydrogen atoms in helium and release energy?

The sun's energy (and that of all other stars) comes from nuclear fusion. The nuclei of hydrogen atoms (ie protons) fuse together to produce helium and release energy.


What natural gases give power to the sun?

Our sun gets energy from fusing hydrogen atoms with neutrons to form helium atoms.


What is fusing inside the sun as you go through this site?

Inside the Sun, it is mainly hydrogen-1 fusing into helium-4.


What do nuclear reactions on the sun produce?

Nuclear reaction inside the Sun is fusing of Hydrogen to Helium and release out thermal energy.


What kind of atom is fused with hydrogen to create energy on your sun?

Hydrogen: the mutual fusing of H atoms into Helium, with consequent release of energy.


How does the Sun produce its light?

sun have H2 atoms so by fussion process H atoms produce hydrogen bomb and then blast and light will produce .


Why is the amount of hydrogen in the sun decreasing?

The amount of hydrogen in the Sun is decreasing because nuclear fusion converts hydrogen into helium in the Sun's core. As the Sun converts hydrogen into helium, it gradually loses mass and energy, leading to a decrease in the hydrogen content over time. This process is part of the Sun's natural life cycle.


How is the sun different from a protostar?

The sun is a star, fusing hydrogen atoms in its inner most layers to produce electromagnetic energy. A Protostar is basically a clump of interstellar matter/dust that may be coalescing due to gravitation to form a star but its center has not yet achieved a high enough temperature for hydrogen fusion to begin.


How are the sun and a red dwarf similar?

Both the sun and a red dwarf are main sequence stars that produce heat and light by fusing hydrogen in their core and turning it into helium.
