E=mc(square) thus, energy can be converted to mass.so, will the sun get destroyed ?

Question

The sun is continuously emitting light energy .Thus,according to the law mentioned after a time extent the sun must get destructed but this fact is not true. so where we have made the mistake either in the Eienstien's law or in the fact that sun is expanding in size gradually.

Answer 1

The light radiation which comes from the Sun is the loss of mass that the Sun undergoes thru Nuclear fusion mass defect.
These micromass particles which we call light particles radiates in sequence at paticular frequenciess as they escape the Sun's Gravity.
The Energy of each particle is equal to the mass of the particle times the velocity square of light.

Nuclear fussion in the sun would continue as long as there remain nuclear structure fo form fusion.And would continue to radiate energy for a very long long time,

It certainly would not be our problem if the Sun it burned out . It would be Universal problem if all the stars became extinct.

Energy does not get converted it is only a process which tell you how many micromasses are moving at the speed of light.

Its is very elementary process to Understand. Its so easy that teachers couldnot explain it any simpler.

Answer 2

The kinetic energy is "converted" into a shock wave which is transmitted through the magnet and into the structure holding the magnet. The shock wave then dissipates into heat in the structure and the surrounding air. So I would say Kinetic energy into heat. I'm not sure if a shock wave is a subset of Kinetic energy or something else! Magnets allow the transmission of forces, like an electromagnetic motor for example. Edit: I'm not sure that the ball would keep rotating in a fixed translational position next to the magnet, even if there was zero friction, since this would set up eddy currents in the ball?!?!?

Answer 3

Yes, but not because the sun's energy is converted into mass. The sun is radiating all the energy out 24/7, so eventually it's going lose all its energy and died, probably billions of years away.
E = mc^2 is confirmed when they change mass into energy. In fact that;s how atomic bomb works!

Answer 4

It's the sun's mass that is being converted into energy but not to worry, E=MC squared assures us that the sun will be around for a few billion years longer.

Answer 5

True, the Sun is loosing mass every second. But the Sun is Sooooo big, that it can do that for billions of years and not even loose 1% of its mass. You cannot have an intuitive feeling for such a thing, the numbers are too big, so you have to do the math.

Answer 6

Man i have to hand it to you. Have you noticed it is getting warmer every year. And no its not global warming thats all political crap. The sun is expanding and like a balloon one day it will pop and burst out an explosion like in a shock wave form and the earth will be cooked.

Answer 7

Sun won't disappear.......

When the fuel depleted, the reaction rate would diminish and the sun surface would be unable to resist the sun core gravity.

Then, the sun would shrink because it is pulled by its own gravity. The sun is too small to become a black hole.

So it would become a white dwarf........

Answer 8

Take a look at this web site. It has a very good and simple explanation of the physics involved in the sun's energy production.

Answer 9

The sun will eventually burn itself out but not for about 4 billion years. It is not big enough to go nova, it will just fizzle out.

Answer 10

Yes
