How much mass is converted into energy per second in the sun if this power output is `3.6 xx10^(27)` W ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find out how much mass is converted into energy per second in the sun given a power output of \(3.6 \times 10^{27}\) W, we can use Einstein's mass-energy equivalence formula: \[ E = \Delta m \cdot c^2 \] Where: - \(E\) is the energy (in joules), ...
