What happens to matter consumed in nuclear fusion?

In nuclear fusion, matter is converted into energy according to Einstein's equation E=mc^2. The matter consumed is transformed into lighter elements like helium, releasing large amounts of energy in the process.


How does hydrogen atoms fusing into helium atoms make energy?

When hydrogen atoms fuse into helium atoms, a small amount of mass from the hydrogen is converted into a large amount of energy in accordance with Einstein's equation E=mc^2. This energy release results from the difference in mass between the initial hydrogen atoms and the resulting helium atoms.


What happens to some of the mass when hydrogen fuses to form helium?

During the fusion of hydrogen into helium in stars, a small amount of mass is converted into energy, according to Einstein's equation (E=mc^2). This mass loss occurs because the mass of the resulting helium nucleus is slightly less than the total mass of the original hydrogen nuclei that fused together. The energy released in this process powers the star and produces light and heat, which are essential for life on Earth.


What is given off during fusion?

helium and some neutrons


What occurs in the sun's core and generates the sun's energy?

Nuclear fusion occurs in the sun's core, where hydrogen atoms combine to form helium, releasing a tremendous amount of energy in the process. This process is sustained by the sun's gravity and high temperature, providing the energy that powers the sun and sustains life on Earth.
