Nuclear power is the only thing that gives life to our sun.Nuclear power can be produced in two ways namely nuclear fission and nuclear fusion.Inatomic power plants nuclear fission is taking place in which uranium-235 atom splits into fast moving lighter elements.But in nuclear fusion energy isnproducednby fusing nuclei like hydrogen to more massive helium.This same thing is happening in our sun.Obviously it is very hard to produce energy through nuclear fusion in our earth as it requires very high temperature and pressure and also the process has to overcome the repulsion between the same positively charged hydrogen atoms.Fusion involves low mass nuclei whose combined mass is more than the resulting fused massive nucleas.The loss of mass in the process is converted to energy according to Einstein's law of conservation of mass.E=ms2.Here m=loss of mass in the process and c=velocity of the light.

Why does autumn happen on earth?

Autumn happens on Earth due to the tilt of its axis. As Earth orbits the sun, different parts of the planet receive different amounts of sunlight. In autumn, the Northern Hemisphere tilts away from the sun, leading to cooler temperatures and the changing of colors in the leaves as trees prepare for winter.


Is autumn always right?

Autumn is a season, so it doesn't have the capacity for being right or wrong. It is a natural occurrence that happens due to the earth's tilt and orbit around the sun.


We have seasons because sometimes the earth is closer to the sun?

Seasons are actually caused by the tilt of the Earth's axis as it orbits the sun, not by its distance from the sun. This tilt causes different parts of the Earth to receive varying amounts of sunlight throughout the year, creating the four seasons: winter, spring, summer, and autumn.


What is the relative position of the earth and sun in summer autumn winter and spring on the northern hemisphere?

About the same except that they're closer in winter than in summer (the Earth's orbit is an ellipse). The thing that make seasons is not their position but the aspect of the Earth's surface that mainly faces the sun, and that's controlled by the tilt of the Earth's axis.


Why do you experience different seasons?

Different seasons occur due to the tilt of the Earth's axis as it orbits the sun. This tilt causes sunlight to hit the Earth at different angles throughout the year, leading to variations in temperature and daylight hours. This results in the cycle of spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

What makes the season change from Summer to Autumn?

The movement of the earth around the sun as well as the tilt of the earth causes Autumn and the rest of the seasons. In Autumn (Fall, in the US) that part of the earth is beginning to move away from directly facing the sun.


How long does the sun from the moon take to hit earth?

Why does the earth have four season?

The earth moves around the sun and at certain points the sun is further away from the earth that produces winter but as the earth gets nearer to the sun in its orbit it gets hotter therefore we get summer and autumn and spring in between.
