What is a giant ball of gas primarily hydrogen and helium which undergoes nuclear fusion?
Star
What gas is produced by nuclear fusion?
In the most common stellar fusion, helium gas is formed from the fusion of hydrogen nuclei.
Is the sun a gas giant or an rocky planet?
no its a star if it was a gas giant it would be a planet
Describe the life cycle of a star like the Sun-?
Planetary Nebula are the outer layers of a star that are lost when the star changes from a red giant to a white dwarf. A star is a luminous globe of gas producing its own heat and light by nuclear reactions (nuclear fusion). They are born from nebulae and consist mostly of hydrogen and helium gas.
How do nuclear fusion differ fundamentally from nuclear fission?
Nuclear fusion doesn't produce energy.
What is a giant ball of gas primarily hydrogen and helium which undergoes nuclear fusion?
Star
How nuclear fusion in a main sequence is different from nuclear fusion in a giant star?
Nuclear Fusion in a Giant Star involves Helium being fused into a hydrogen shell that surrounds the core, and Nuclear Fusion in a Main-Sequence star involves Hydrogen being fused into Helium to produce Energy inside of the core.
How is nuclear fusion in a main-sequence star is different from nuclear fusion in a giant star.?
Nuclear Fusion in a Giant Star involves Helium being fused into a hydrogen shell that surrounds the core, and Nuclear Fusion in a Main-Sequence star involves Hydrogen being fused into Helium to produce Energy inside of the core.
What gas is produced by nuclear fusion?
In the most common stellar fusion, helium gas is formed from the fusion of hydrogen nuclei.
Is Jupiter a failed sun?
No, Jupiter is not a failed sun. It is a gas giant planet that did not have enough mass to ignite and sustain nuclear fusion like a star.
How are planetary nebulas different from stars?
Stars are balls of gas that undergo nuclear fusion and have a core, their light come from the energy released during nuclear fusion. Planetary nebulae are the blown-off shells of dying red giant stars, the light of a planetary nebula come from ionized gas and light of other stars.
Is Jupiter a failed star?
No, Jupiter is not a failed star. It is a gas giant planet made mostly of hydrogen and helium, while stars are made mostly of hydrogen and undergo nuclear fusion to produce energy. Jupiter does not have enough mass to sustain nuclear fusion and become a star.
What gas is the fuel for a red giant star?
The fuel for a red giant star is mainly hydrogen gas, which undergoes nuclear fusion at its core to produce helium. This fusion process releases energy in the form of light and heat, causing the star to shine brightly.
Is the sun a gas giant or an rocky planet?
no its a star if it was a gas giant it would be a planet
What is the process called when the sun turns the gas hydogen into helium?
Nuclear fusion
Is the sun a planet or nebula?
Neither; it is a star. it formed from a nebula.
What process produces the largest amount of energy given off by stars?
Nuclear Fusion
