What is the mass of the sun in tons?
The mass of the Sun is 219,261,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 short tons, if weighed on Earth - which of course is impossible.
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.
Does the sun lose energy as it shines?
Yes. The sun loses energy as it shines. That is because it shines by turning hydrogen into helium.
Is the sun getting heavier or lighter as time goes on explain why?
there are three well known processes that each involve an ongoing change in the mass of the sun. the sun radiates heat, thus losing energy and thus losing mass. the rate of mass loss by this process can be calculated quite easily and accurately. the sun blows off matter continuously but somewhat irregularly. this flow of material is known as the solar wind. in this way the sun loses mass. the sun still collects infalling stray chunks of loose material called meteors and in this way increases in mass. i do not know the relative sizes of these three processes.
Each second the sun converts 600 million tons of matter into what?
Energy.
Does the sun lose weight?
yes the sun does lose weight. it loses over 4 million kilograms per second!!!!!!!!!! AMAZING!!!
Why is it impossible for life to exist in the sun?
First, the sun is a star, so it's made of gasesSecond, the Sun's temperature is 5000000 C°its bec. its so hot in their and thiers no air to breath.
What planet s loses to he sun?
Mercury is the planet closest to the sun.
The sun loses energy by emittting what?
photons
Where from sun obtain energy?
the sun converts 700 million tons hydrogen to 695 million tons of helium the 5 million tons left is pure energy
What is the mass of the sun in tons?
The mass of the Sun is 219,261,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 short tons, if weighed on Earth - which of course is impossible.
How much does the Sun wiegh in Tons?
999,000,000,000,000,000,012
What will happen on earth if the sun suddenly loses its energy?
secret
What might happen if the sun loses it gravitational pull?
Then we all will die

Odysseus loses his entire crew because they?
ate the sun god's cattle.

Yes. The sun loses energy as it shines. That is because it shines by turning hydrogen into helium.
