Why does the amount of hydrogen in a star decrease over time?

The amount of hydrogen in a star decreases over time because the star fuses hydrogen into helium in its core through the process of nuclear fusion. This conversion of hydrogen into helium releases energy that powers the star and results in a gradual depletion of its hydrogen fuel source.


What will happen to the relative amounts of hydrogen and helium in the sun over the next few billion years?

Over the next few billion years, the hydrogen content in the sun will decrease as it fuses into helium through nuclear fusion. This process will cause the relative amount of helium to increase in the sun over time.


Does the sun's energy come from the burning combustion of hydrogen?

No. The sun's energy comes from the nuclear fusion of hydrogen, not combustion. In this reaction hydrogen atoms fuse with one another to form helium atoms. The fusion of hydrogen yields about 4.5 million times more energy than you would get from burning the same amount.


How much gas does the sun burn each second?

The sun converts about 600 million tons of hydrogen into helium every second through nuclear fusion. This process releases a tremendous amount of energy in the form of light and heat, which sustains life on Earth.


Does the mass of the Earth change?

The mass of the Earth remains relatively constant because the amount of matter on Earth does not significantly increase or decrease. However, the Earth gains a small amount of mass each year from meteorites and space dust that enter the atmosphere.

What is percentage increase or decrease?

It is the increase or decrease in some amount, expressed as a percentage of the original amount. For example, if the price of something goes from 25 to 30 then the original amount was 25 and the increase was 30-25 = 5. So the percentage increase is 5 as a percentage of 25 which is 100*(5/25) = 20%
