The sun actually a star of moderate size
The centre of our solar system
The sun takes 25 1/3 days to rotate on its axis from west to east.

MASS 1.4 million km
1.989x 1030
SUN’S CORE

• The structure of the sun
CHROMOSPHERE
CORONA
Bright red layer gas below the corona
Outer most layer of gas in the sun’s atmosphere
Only visible during eclipse of the sun
Corona forms a circle of white light around the
Temperature varies between 10000 and 500000 degree celcius
Only visible during eclipse the sun
Temperature is about 1.5 million degree celcius
PHOTOSPHERE
Compact layer of gases seen to be shining with yellow light from earth
Photosphere’s surface appears turbulent because gas form the sun’s core is release to its surface
This layer is responsible for radiating heat and light from the sun
Nuclear reaction occurs in the core all the time to generate
The and released heat

SIZE
Different stars have different sizes.

Very small star , smaller than Earth

gh, nuclear reaction occurs. A lot of heat and light energy are released, the core shines and star is born.

Star will die when hydrogen gas in its core is used up in nuclear
