the following statements so that they make sense according to star birth stages 1.At this stage, energy moves to the surface primarily through convection. At the end of this stage, the photosphere's temperature can reach 3,000K 2.In this stage, nuclear fusion starts and the energy transport mechanism switches from convection to radiative diffusion 3.In this stage, nuclear fusion rate is high enough to balance out the rate of radiative energy escape the surface 4.During this stage, gravitational contraction causes its luminosity to decrease because the protostar gets smaller while its surface temperature stays the same

A Crude Analysis: In about 5 billion years, the Sun is going to look a lot different. Our sun is going to turn into a red-giant, a bigger star whose core temperature is much higher than the Sun's current core temperature (you will learn about the red giants in the coming weeks). Assume the core temperature of the red-giant phase of the Sun does not go beyond 100 million degrees. Do you think the temperature is high enough for helium fusion to occur? Note that this question is about helium fusion not hydrogen fusion. How are you going about proving your claim? Question: What temperature in degrees Kelvin must the red-giant sun be at to allow for the helium-helium interactions to take place not considering the Quantum Mechanical effects (i.e. what temperature would allow helium atoms to breach the helium-helium potential wall without help from Quantum Mechanics)? Use wolfram alpha to find the values for the constants. Round your answer to two decimal places. Your answer i [ Select ] 1.47…

If the temperature at the centre of the sun is 15,000,000 K and the temperature of the photosphere is 5,800 K, what is the ratio of the temperature at the centre of the Sun compared to the photosphere? Express your final answer in the fully factorised form x : 1, where x is a number that you should determine to an appropriate number of significant figures and write it using scientific notation.
62. Pressure of the Photosphere. The gas pressure of the photosphere changes substantially from its upper levels to its lower levels. Near the top of the photosphere, the temperature is about 4500 K and there are about 1.6 x 1016 gas particles per cubic centimeter. In the middle, the temperature is about 5800 K and there are about 1.0 x 10" gas particles per cubic centimeter. At the bottom of the photosphere, the temperature is about 7000 K and there are about 1.5 × 10" gas particles per cubic centimeter. Use the ideal gas law (Mathematical Insight 14.2) to compare the pressures of each of these layers; explain the reason for the trend that you find. How do these gas pressures compare with Earth's atmospheric pressure at sea level?
