  1. The Sun By Emmerson Cavanagh, Stephanie Troiano, Shylah Chetcuti7G

  2. The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System. It is almost perfectly spherical and consists of hot plasma interwoven with magnetic fields Distance to Earth: 149,600,000 km Surface temperature: 5,778 K Mass: 1.989E30 kg Radius: 695,500 km (1 R☉) Coordinates: RA 19h 4m 31s | Dec 63° 52.200' Orbits: Galactic Centre

  3. This slide is called the core of the sun, the word “core” means the middle, for example a apple core is that middle of the apple but for this case it is the middle of the sun The middle of the sun is the hottest part of the sun 27 million degrees, the Sun is considered to extend from the centre to about 0.2 to 0.25 solar radius. Solar radius is a distance from the stars. The core of the sun

  4. How hot is the sun I’m sure that everyone has asked this question once in their life “ how hot is the sun” well that is what I'm here for if your question remains a mystery. The sun’s Surface temperature is 5,778 which produces heat the closer you get to the sun the hotter it is so when you see the sun in the sky its not hot because it is so far away from us.

  5. Does the sun ever go away? No The sun never goes away, even at night the moon comes out but the sun never leaves The sun does not move the earth is the one that moves around the sun so during the night the sun does not go anywhere it is so dark that you cant see it Sometimes the clouds block the sun at night that is one of the reasons why it gets so cold at night.

  6. The Sun lives in our galaxy in the middle of the orientation in our solar system and all the planets go around it. It gives them all light.

  7. Radiative zone Below about 0.7 solar ranges, solar material is hot and dense enough that thermal radiation is the primary means of energy transfer from the core. This zone is not regulated by thermal convection however the temperature drops from approximately 7 to 2 million kelvin with increasing distance from the core.

  8. Thank you for reading I hope that you learnt more about the sun that you didn’t know before.
