How much does the suns mass decrease every second in tons?
The Sun loses about 4.2 million tons of mass every second due to nuclear fusion reactions in its core converting hydrogen into helium. This mass loss is converted into energy, which is what powers the Sun and allows it to emit light and heat.
How much is the weight of the sun?
The sun is about 1.989×1027 tons. Usually we could count the result by knowing its diameter: 696000 km, and its density:1.409g/cm3
How heavy is the moon in tons?
The Moon's mass is 8.09942316 × 10^19 tons.
What does the sun's inner core do for the sun?
The inner core of the Sun converts about 700,000,000 tons of Hydrogen into 695,000,000 tons of Helium each second by a process called nuclear fusion. The mass difference 5,000,000 tons is converted into energy (by Einstein's E-MC2 formula) and it is this constantly produced heat that makes the Sun shine - makes it a star.
How much hydrogen does the sun burn every second?
The value seems to vary, depending on what source you refer to. madsci.org states a few billion tons. #1 exitmundi.nl states 400 million tons. #2 nasa.gov/qa_sun.html states 600 million tons. #3 funtrivia.com states 600 - 700 million tons. #4 wikipedia.org/ states 600 million metric tons. #5 Whereas phy6.org/stargaze/Lsun2vue.htm states a million tons. #6 mb-soft.com/public2/sunworks.html states 4 million tons. #7 There is little difference between a long, short or metric ton. So the consensus is on about 600 million tons per second!! Of the 600 million tonnes of Hydrogen used, 596 million tons of Helium is created with only 4 million tons being converted into pure energy. For comparison, the mass of the Earth is about 5.97×1021 tons. This would mean the Sun would consume the mass of the Earth in about 315,500 years.
How much weight is lost to the Sun's mass as the sun burns up?
About 4 million tons per second. Note: This is MASS, not weight.
How fast is the sun making nuclear fusions?
Fast enough to convert 4 million tons of mass to energy, every second.Fast enough to convert 4 million tons of mass to energy, every second.Fast enough to convert 4 million tons of mass to energy, every second.Fast enough to convert 4 million tons of mass to energy, every second.

How to convert gross ton to net ton?
The conversion is not a simple mathematical exercise. You need to know the mass of the container. For example, a truck with a load of 10 tons might have a mass of 12 tons - the additional 2 tons being the mass of the [empty] truck. In that case, the gross mass is 12 tons and the net mass is 10 tons.
What is the formula for tons per hour?
Mass divided by time, where the mass is measured in tons and the time is measured in hours. If the mass and time are measured in other units they will need to be converted to tons and hours.
How much is the weight of the sun?
The sun is about 1.989×1027 tons. Usually we could count the result by knowing its diameter: 696000 km, and its density:1.409g/cm3
Are metric tons short tons and long tons mass units or weight units?
weight
