The Sun's mass remains relatively constant as it burns because the process of nuclear fusion, which powers the Sun, converts mass into energy. This mass-energy conversion maintains a balance that keeps the Sun stable.

What happens to the amount of the suns mass as it burns?

As the sun burns, it converts some of its mass into energy through nuclear fusion. This process causes a very small amount of the sun's mass to be converted into energy according to Einstein's famous equation, E=mc^2. Overall, the sun's mass is very stable over time.

Is Sirius a low mass star?

It is, but at twice our suns mass, Sirius A is on the limit, of being an intimidate mass star. Sirius A will have a life cycle similar to that of our own star which is a low mass star, but burns hotter. Sirius B is a companion white dwarf star with a mass of around the same as our sun. Previously, it was thought to have been a star with a mass of around 5 times that of our sun, burning out more quickly than Sirius A.

Why is mercury not the hotest planet to do nearest to the sun?

cause mercury doesnt trap the suns heat into the surface. It burns in the day time but freezes at the night time. Venus traps the suns heat in its surface.


Does the suns mass remain unchanged with each second?

Yes, the sun's mass remains relatively constant over short time scales, such as seconds. The sun's mass is so massive that the amount of matter it gains or loses in a second is negligible. In the long term, the sun does lose mass through the process of nuclear fusion in its core.
