Jupiter has a mass of 1.8986×1027 kg or 2.09284825 × 1024 tons

Depending on the sources [See related question], the Sun converts about 600 million tons of hydrogen into helium every second.

So a/b gives 3,488,080,416,666,667 seconds.

Or 110,532,959 years

How long can a human stay on Neptune?

Not very long. Neptune is made of Hydrogen and helium. So you can't breath.


How is life in Jupiter in a typical day be like?

Life on Jupiter is not possible due to extreme conditions such as high gravity, intense radiation, and lack of a solid surface. The planet is a gas giant made up mostly of hydrogen and helium, with no known life forms. Any spacecraft or probe sent to Jupiter would not survive for long in its harsh environment.


Why did the zeppelin company use hydrogen gas when helium gas would worked as well and been much safer?

During the time of the zeppelines, the US had more or less monopoly on Helium, and imposed an embargo on Germany on many things, one being Helium. The Hindenburg was designed for Helium, but had to turn to Hydrogen.


What kind of planet is Jupiter?

Saturn is a "gas giant", with a smaller rocky core surrounded by a dense atmosphere of hydrogen and some helium. The lower regions of the atmosphere contain both solid and liquid hydrogen. The gases there have extremely high pressure and temperatures as high as 11,700 °C.


What are the two main gases that stars are made of?

Our star I can tell you more about, but Alas Until we can burn ourselves up in other stars (which are at least light years away at the closest) I can only tell you the Chemicals the sun uses. The sun is about 75% Hydrogen, and just about the rest is mostly Helium. Which there are so plentiful amounts that It can burn for a very long time, at least until there is no more fuel. O.o


Why is the presence of large amount of helium in the spectrum of a star considered to be a sign of age?

Stars fuse hydrogen into helium, and then fuse the helium into carbon. For a star to have more than about 50% helium, we know that the star has already burned up half of its natural fuel, and that the end is near.


Why is the presence of large amounts of helium in the spectrum of a star generally considered a sign of age?

Stars begintheir lives burning hydrogen and converting it to helium. If there are large amounts of helium in a stellar spectrum, it would indicate that the star has been making helium for a long time - hence age.


Is it true that Hydrogen and Helium were formed by nuclear reaction in the stars and other elements were formed after the Big Bang?

Close, but not exactly. Hydrogen is not formed by nuclear reactions in stars, hydrogen was formed not long after the Big Bang, when the expanding universe had cooled sufficiently that an electron and a proton could combine to form a hydrogen atom. Helium and all the other elements that are heavier than hydrogen, were formed by the process of nuclear fusion, in stars.


Why is getting hold of hydrogen so hard?

It isn't hard to get hold of Hydrogen. Simply put a current of electricity through water and you will split the two hydrogen atoms from the oxygen atom. I think you may be mistaking Hydrogen for Helium. Helium cannot be manufactured its a by-product of natural gas that has been distilled in radioactive decay for a very long time and you cant take one element and turn it into another.


Why not use hydrogen in balloon?

Hydrogen is highly flammable and can lead to explosions if not handled carefully. Helium is preferred for balloons because it is non-flammable and safer to use. Additionally, helium atoms are larger and less likely to leak out of the balloon, making it a better choice for long-lasting inflation.


What keeps the sun on fire?

The sun produce energy when it converts hydrogen atoms into helium atoms in the core of the sun. This process will go on for as long as there is enough hydrogen to convert. In some larger stars, the process can also stop if the pressure of the converted atoms become too high. In this case, the sun may explode from the pressure itself into a super nova.
