When the core temperature rises, stars start burning helium to carbon. Hydrogen and helium are fused in a shell surrounding the core, raising the temperature.

The most prevalent method of generating energy in the cosmos is hydrogen fusion. The gravitational force is utilised to fuse hydrogen at the centres of our Sun and other stars, where it has a density more than 70 times greater than that of steel. Thus, all of the heat and light on earth comes from fusion. Helium is a chemical element with the atomic number 2 and the symbol He. The first member of the noble gas group in the periodic table, it is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, inert, monatomic gas that is not harmful.

Downward force of magnitude 5 N isexerted on the book by the force ofthetablegravityinertia .
mylen [45]

Downward force of magnitude 5 N is exerted on the book by the force of <em>gravity</em>.  We call that the "weight" of the book.

At the same time, upward force of 5 N is exerted on the book by the table.  This one is called the "normal force".

Since the vertical forces on the book are 'balanced' (add up to zero), the book just lays there on the table, and does not accelerate.

Bas_tet [7]
<span>B is the correct answer. Neutrons have no charge. In contrast, protons are positively charged and electrons have negative charge. These charges are all relative to each other. The protons and neutrons can be found inside the atom of an element. Electrons float around the outside.</span>

how much energy is transferred when 1 gm of boiling water at 100 degree celcius condenses to water at 100 degree celcius?
Mademuasel [1]
The latent heat of vaporization for water is 2257 KJ per Kg . I'm pretty sure that's exactly the same as 2257 joules per gram. So ... When 1 gm of STEAM at 100 C condenses to 1 gm of liquid water at 100 C, it releases 2257 joules of heat energy to its environment.
