Answer: (B) through the fusion of hydrogen nuclei into a heavier nucleus.

Explanation:- Because of the intense temperature and pressure on the surface of the sun, nuclear fusion takes place. Hydrogen nuclei fuse together to generate helium producing heat and light energy alongside.

The fusion thus produces large amount of heat energy which is radiated out from the sun outside.

_1^2\textrm{H}+_1^2\textrm{H}\rightarrow _2^4\textrm{He}+energy

stellarik [79]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

As the Earth goes around the Sun, it will appear that Earth is stationary and Sun is going around it. One can observe the same in real life as well. This apparent path followed by the Sun is called Ecliptic. The plane consisting Ecliptic is called as Ecliptic plane which is same as the orbital plane of Earth.

All the planets of the Solar system are also going around the Sun. Their orbital plane has negligible tilt with respect to Ecliptic plane. Due to this the planets will always appear near to the Ecliptic as they move on the celestial sphere.
