The sun's source of energy is know as nuclear fusion (means to fuse) this process has a small nuclei atoms that join together to form a large nucleus. The result of this process is released energy. The fusion of hydrogen into helium in the sun makes a large amount of energy and this is known as the sun's energy source.
The theories that scientist proposed about the source of the sun's energy was that the sun burned fuel to generate its energy and that gravity was causing the sun to shrink slowly and have its energy released. Also both of these theories were disproved.

A stretched rubber band is storing <em>elastic potential energy. (A)</em>

Answer:</h2>
-310J
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
The change in internal energy (ΔE) of a system is the sum of the heat (Q) and work (W) done on or by the system. i.e
ΔE = Q + W ----------------------(i)
If heat is released by the system, Q is negative. Else it is positive.
If work is done on the system, W is positive. Else it is negative.
<em>In this case, the system is the balloon and;</em>
Q = -0.659kJ = -695J [Q is negative because heat is removed from the system(balloon)]
W = +385J [W is positive because work is done on the system (balloon)]
<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>
ΔE = -695 + 385
ΔE = -310J
Therefore, the change in internal energy is -310J
<em>PS: The negative value indicates that the system(balloon) has lost energy to its surrounding, thereby making the process exothermic.</em>

Using formula:
I=(1/2)*M*(R^2+r^2)
<span>I=0.5*0.715kg*[(12.7cm)^2+(10.7cm)^2] </span>
