Is it possible the the sun has a positive charge just like protons in a nucleus?

Question

I notice that the structure of atoms is simmilar to the structure of the solar system. Is it possible that like there are protons in a nucleus is it possiblee that the sun or other stars have a positive charge that determines how many planets orbit around it?Just like the amount of obiting electrons is based on the number of protons in the nucleus? I was thinking that if such was true and we knew the charge of the sun it would possibly allude to how many, or how many possible planets are orbiting the sun. What do ya'll think?

Answer 1

The gravitational force works a lot like the electromagnetic force, so I can see why you would make the connection. However, all of our measurements indicate that the Sun is pretty much electrically neutral, with just about as much positive charge as negative. The Earth is much the same way. So the two objects have little to no electromagnetic influence on each other except for the Earth's magnetic field interacting with the solar wind.

It's purely the attractive force of gravity that binds the planets to the Sun. And the number of planets that a star has seems to be a product of random chance.

Answer 2

properly do not ignore that 2 protons do not merely wander by technique of one yet another and get stuck. they might want to submit to fusion first. frequently on the middle of a large call... meaning they're compelled at the same time less than rather considerable warmth and stress. once they're compelled at the same time the sturdy interplay (aka sturdy nuclear stress) holds each thing at the same time. The sturdy stress is the most excellent of the 4 forces, compared to gravity it really is by technique of a few distance the weakest, inspite of the undeniable fact that the sturdy stress is in uncomplicated words valuable over rather small distances, back compared to gravity it really is valuable over rather lengthy distances. This stress (once the protons are close adequate for it to go back into play) is more effective valuable than the electromagnetic stress. So it holds them at the same time inspite of their electrostatic repulsion. that's why fusion has to happen previous to the sturdy stress taking up.

Answer 3

We have successfully generated a plasma from a fusion reactor that created heat 100 times hotter than the surface of our sun. Since we are simulating the crude fusion energies of the sun within a containment field, questions about the sun can be directed at the Fusion Reactor research projects. One of them is ITER.

Answer 4

It's called gravity dood.

The electro-static force that works in atoms is also the same that works in magnets. This is very different from gavity which is not a bipolar force.

edit: put the weed pipe down. you've had enough.

Answer 5

maybe it is possible

Answer 6

yup.
