Estimated total energy output IN ONE SECOND = 5 x 10²⁶ Joules .
Energy = mass · c² ( Albrecht Einshtein)
c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
c² = 9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²
5 x 10²⁶ Joules = mass · (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)
mass = (5 x 10²⁶ Joules) / (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²)
mass = (5 x 10²⁶) / (9 x 10¹⁶) kg
mass = (0.55... x 10¹⁰) kg
mass = 5.55... x 10⁹ kilograms
Look at that for a second. Then think about it for another second.
It's telling us that at its present rate of energy output, the sun is losing more than 5 and a half Billion kilograms of mass every second. And when we read other things about the sun, they say that the sun is expected to continue doing what it's doing for another 4 or 5 Billion years !
Gives ya some idea of the size and mass of the Sun, doesn't it !
The mass of the Sun is approximately 1.989 × 10³⁰ kg, and the Sun is able
to convert mass to energy to energize the Earth for billions of years.
- Loss in mass of the Sun per seconds is approximately 5.563 × 10⁹ kg.
Reasons:
The energy, E, from the Sun comes from nuclear fusion hydrogen atom
protons to form a helium atom with a reduction in mass.
According to Albert Einstein's mass energy equivalence, E = m·c²
[tex]The \ mass \ converted \ to \ energy, \ m = \dfrac{E}{c^2}[/tex]
Where;
c = The speed of light = 299,792,458 m/s
Total energy output of the Sun, E = 5 × 10²⁶ j/s
The loss in mass = The mass converted into energy
[tex]The \ loss \ in \ mass = \dfrac{5 \times 10^{26} \ J/s}{\left(299,792,458 \ m/s\right)^2} \approx 5.563 \times 10^9 \, kg[/tex]
The loss in mass per second ≈ 5.563 × 10⁹ kg.
