If a star collapses to a tenth its size, gravitation at its surface increases by 100 times as much.
The contraction of an astronomical object caused by its own gravity, which tends to pull stuff inward toward the center of gravity, is known as gravitational collapse. A cloud of interstellar matter gradually collapses under the influence of gravity to form a star. The temperature rises as a result of the compression brought on by the collapse until thermonuclear fusion takes place in the star's core. At this point, the collapse gradually comes to an end as the outward heat pressure equalizes the gravitational forces. Following that, the star is in a condition of dynamic equilibrium. A star will repeatedly collapse once all of its energy sources have been used up until it reaches a new equilibrium condition.

Answer:
Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity.
Explanation:
For example if you were riding in a car the change in velocity which is defined as an speed in direction. So if you were in a car and the car went from 30 MPH to 40 MPH the speed of the car has accelerated giving you acceleration.
Answer: The sun’s radiation consists of small, massless packets of energy called photons. They travel seamlessly through space; whenever they strike any object, the object absorbs photons and its energy is increased, which then heats it up.
Explanation:
Answer: Nuclear fusion.
Explanation: The sun is a medium-sized star, its radius is 695.510 km and its mass is equivalent to that obtained by bringing together about 110 planets equal to Earth (6371 km is its radius).
It has six layers: The core, the radioactive zone, the convective zone, the photosphere, the chromosphere and the corona.
Magnetic field disruptions near active regions can generate strong explosions in the sun such as sun flashes and coronal mass ejections. The degree of complexity of the sun´s magnetic field increases and decreases with the course of each sunspot cycle.
Sir Arthur Eddington was the first to evaluate all the data and dared to conjecture that nuclear fusion, the process that creates heavy elements from the fusion of lighter ones, could be responsible for the great production of the sun´s energy; this process make the sun´s energy was taken for the earth and the planet get back to the sun recycled energy. The sun has a very large and complex magnetic field; the average magnetic field of the sun is approximately 1 Gauss, almost twice as strong as the average magnetic field of the Earth´s surface (approximately 0.5 Gauss). Because the surface of the sun is more than 12.000 times larger than the Earth, the overall influence of the sun´s magnetic field is immensely large.
