The Sun

The Solar System is a collection of planets, moons, comets, asteroids, and other objects that orbit the Sun. It includes eight main planets, such as Earth, Mars, and Jupiter, as well as various smaller bodies. The Solar System formed about 4.6 billion years ago from a giant cloud of gas and dust.

A solar eclipse can occur when the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth, blocking the Sun's light and casting a shadow on Earth. This phenomenon happens only during a new moon phase.

Solar panels were first used in space applications, specifically on satellites in the 1950s. The Vanguard 1 satellite in 1958 was the first to use solar panels as a source of power in orbit around Earth.

nucleur energy. its the energy formed when mass transforms into energy according to E=mc^2. (m=mass in kilograms, c=speed of light in meters/sec, and E=energy in joules. The basic meaning of the equation is that even a little mass transforms into a lot of energy. In the sun, it is so hot and pressures are so high that mass transforms constantly in a process called fusion, where two atoms fuse together and some of the mass is transformed into energy.

There are many myths that tell this story. Linguistically, however, the English word "sun" comes from Old English (Anglo-Saxon) "sunne," which in turn came from Germanic "sunno." All of these words meant "sun."

Also,Germanic "sunno" came from the Indo-European word "suwen" or "sawen," which was an alternate form of the Indo-European word "sawel," which meant "to shine" or "the sun." The origin of the name "Sun" is probably at least three thousand years old, because it can be traced back all the way to the Indo-European language, which is the ancestor language to many languages of today, including English, French, German, Spanish, Greek, and Persian. There is no hidden or other meaning to the name "Sun": It is just the name of that big bright light that is in the sky during the day. the sun does mean that but it means something else also. (Edit by Lolzylooz) The saxon/germanic/danish goddess of the sun was known as sunna. It is unknown who firstnamed the sun, but this is my guess. Sorry i can't be of any more help. xVx

The "optical" surface of the Sun (known as the photosphere) is known to have a temperature of approximately 6,000 K.

Above it lies the solar corona, rising to a temperature of around 1,000,000-2,000,000 K

I think,that because

its so bright outside that

we shoulld plant trees.

which has to do with rays

In October, the exact time of sunset will depend on your location and the specific date. On average, in the northern hemisphere, the sun sets earlier as we move towards winter, so sunsets in October typically occur earlier in the evening compared to the summer months. You can check a local sunrise/sunset calendar or use a weather app to find the precise time for your area.

The heat generated in the sun comes from nuclear fusion reactions in its core, where hydrogen atoms are combined to form helium. This process releases a massive amount of energy in the form of heat and light.

No, the sun is not living. It is a massive ball of gas and plasma that undergoes nuclear fusion to produce energy and light.

The sun is a very small star is not as bright or big as most other stars but it seems bigger and brighter because it is much closer. Some stars have burned out, but we still see them in the night sky because the light they give off takes so long to reach us. There may even be some stars that have gone through their entire life cycle but we still have no idea of their existence because they are so far away! The night sky is fascinating, isn't it?

The form of the question seems to presuppose a "purpose" and scientifically the sun has no "purpose". But if you want to ask what processes are under way in the sun then you should ask that question. (Thermonuclear fusion of Hydrogen into Helium is the primary process). If on the other hand you wanted to ask what "effect" the sun has on the surrounding space, you should ask that question. (The sun heats up the surrounding space and material generated in the fusion processes are expelled)

Sunspots are temporary disturbances on the surface of the sun that appear as darker, cooler areas caused by strong magnetic activity. They are a natural part of the solar cycle and can impact space weather by affecting solar radiation and magnetic fields.

The solar constant is an expression of the amount of solar radiation that reaches the Earth's upper atmosphere. It represents the power per unit area received from the Sun at a distance of one astronomical unit (AU) from Earth. It is typically measured to be about 1,366 watts per square meter.

that depends on how long it takes for all of our trees to die.little by little we all start to die.BECAUSE we cant breath and are plants cant help us.why, there's no sun to help them grow.then there's no AIR LEFT.

Theoretically, scientist do not know what the sun looks like through this perspective. The only way to know is to actually be there. However, research using inductive and deductive empirical reasoning to make accurate assumptions.

No, the Sun is not the only star in the Milky Way galaxy. There are estimated to be over 200 billion stars in our galaxy, of varying sizes and ages. The Sun is just one of the many stars that make up the Milky Way.

Highland areas are cooler because of their higher altitude, which causes the air to be thinner and able to hold less heat. Additionally, the higher altitude allows for more rapid cooling at night due to less insulation and more exposure to the cooler air above.

There is a huge amount of infrared and ultraviolet energy in the Sun's rays. You may not be able to see them, but they will still focus close enough to your eyes' retinas to fry them, starting at the center and work out to the edges.

So, for the rest of your life, you will see only a white or black spot as you try to look at something. This is similar to the disease, Macular Degeneration.

one thing is bad in the sun is Heart attack ..........

Face the sun .... what do you feeling when the sun see at least 1mins

^_^...... that all the answer....... i means to say to you the answer are in you

As an elliptical orbit is any orbit that isn't perfectly circular, everything has an elliptical orbit.

The planets Mercury and Pluto have the most elliptical orbits of the planets, and are easily seen to be oval shaped.

Comets also have highly elliptical orbits.

A comet's orbit is very elliptical -- it is a very elongated oval. The sun is at one focus of the ellipse, and typically the other focus is somewhere beyond the orbit of Pluto, in the Oort Cloud. Kepler's Laws tell us that a body orbiting the sun will move more quickly when it is closest to the sun, in this case when it is in the inner system. So a comet will move very slowly at the outer end of its orbit, speeding up as it falls towards the Sun, whip through the inner system at a great speed as it rounds the sun, and then slow down as it heads back out to the cold. Because the orbit is so very eccentric, it takes far longer to travel through the far end of it than through the inner system; a typical case would be a comet with a 70-year period that spends only a week in the inner system each orbit.

Solar Sun Rings are safer and are capable of generating more heat that a solar cover. The effect is that Solar Sun Rings with 70% to 80% coverage outperform bubble pack covers with 100% coverage.

The higher in the sky the sun is the more solar radiation received at the surface. This is because as the sun gets higher in the sky, there is less atmosphere blocking the sun's rays. Imagine the sun going through the atmosphere at a 90 degree angle. The thickness of the atmosphere let say is x thick. As the sun hit the surface at a lower angle, the thickness of the atmosphere has to go through more atmosphere to get to the surface. So the thicker atmosphere blocks more of the sun's rays.
