The power output of the Sun is approximately 3.8 × 1026 J/s. Most of this energy is produced in the Sun’s core by the proton-proton chain. This energy is transmitted outward by the processes of convection and radiation. (a) How many of these fusion reactions per second must occur to supply the power radiated by the Sun?
(b) What is the rate at which the mass of the Sun decreases?
(c) In about five billion years, the central core of the Sun will be depleted of hydrogen. By what percentage will the mass of the Sun have decreased from its present value when the core is depleted of hydrogen?

Moon effect. some people believe that the moon controls their activities. if the moon moves from being directly on the opposite side of earth from you to being directly overhead, by what percentage does (a) the moon's gravitational pull on you increase and (b) your weight (as measured on a scale) decrease? assume that the earth–moon (center-to-center) distance is 3.82 × 10^8 m, earth's radius is 6.37 × 10^6 m, moon's mass is 7.36 × 10^22 kg, and earth's mass is 5.98 × 10^24 kg.

Calculate the ratio of h+ ions to oh– ions at a ph = 6. find the concentration of h+ ions to oh– ions listed in table b of your student guide. then divide the h+ concentration by the oh– concentration. record this calculated ratio in table a of your student guide. compare your approximated and calculated ratios of h+ ions to oh– ions at a ph = 6. are they the same? why or why not? record your explanation in table a. what is the concentration of h+ ions at a ph = 6? mol/l what is the concentration of oh– ions at a ph = 6? mol/l what is the ratio of h+ ions to oh– ions at a ph = 6? : 1
