First Law:
Conservation and Transformation
“In a system of constant mass, theenergy involved in any physical orchemical change is neither created nordestroyed, but merely changed fromone form to another.”

Second Law: Efficiency and Entropy
“Energy always changes from a moreuseful, more concentrated form to a lessuseful, less concentrated form.”
The flow of energy involvesdegradation, which leads to increasingdisorganization ( ) in the system.

Convection: Is the process by which hot, less dense materials rise upward
and are replaced by cold, more dense materials (downward-flowing and sideways –flowing) to create a convection current (shown in figure).

convection
Radiation: Is the process
in which heat passes through a gas or liquid. This is the way that heat reaches the Earth from the Sun.
Conduction: Is the process by which heat can move through any solid body, like solid rock, without changing the shape of the body.

It is the total amount of energy radiated outward each second by the Sun.

The fusion process: Nuclear reactions where lightweight chemical elements (like hydrogen) form heavier elements (such as helium and carbon). This process converts matter (i.e. mass of an atom) to energy.
Albert Einstein in 1905 showed that: E = mc2
Where, E= Energym= massc=speed of light in a vacuum (3.0 x 108 m/s)

The Sun produces its energy by two fusion reactions:1. Proton-Proton (PP) – 88%2. Carbon-Nitrogen-Oxygen (CNO) – 12%
Four 1H One 4He + Energy
The energy released in this fusion reaction is about 4.2 x 10-12 JoulesBut 4.5 x 106 metric tons of H are converted to He every second.
H = 1.00794H x 4 = 4.03176He = 4.002602The difference isreleased as energy.

Energy is created in the core when hydrogen is fused to helium. This energyflows out from the core by radiation through the radiative layer, by convectionthrough the convective layer, and by radiation from the surface of thephotosphere, which is the portion of the Sun we see.

The two curves are different because gases in the atmosphere (oxygen, water vapor, and carbon dioxide) selectively absorb some of the wavelengths of emitted radiation.

SOHO is a project of international collaboration between ESA and NASA to study the Sun from its deep core to the outer corona and the solar wind.
Launched on December 2, 1995.
The SOHO spacecraft was built in Europe under overall management by ESA.
Originally planned as a two-year mission, SOHOcurrently continues to operate after over ten years in space.

SDO: The Solar Dynamics Observatoryis the first mission to be launched for NASA's Living
With a Star (LWS) Program, a program designed to
understand the causes of solar variability and its
impacts on Earth. SDO is designed to help us understand
the Sun's influence on Earth and Near-Earth space by
studying the solar atmosphere on small scales of space
and time and in many wavelengths simultaneously.
SDO was launched on February 11, 2010, 10:23 am EST
on an Atlas V from Cape Canaveral.

This is a beautiful profile view of cascading loops spiraling above it (Jan. 15-16, 2012) following asolar flare eruption. These loop structures are made of superheated plasma, just one of which is thesize of several Earths. With its ability to capture the Sun in amazing detail, SDO observed it all inextreme ultraviolet light. This particular video clip used an image every five minutes to present themotion. Note all of the other spurts and minor bursts from both regions during almost two days.

A solar eruption gracefully rose up from the sun on December 31, 2012, twisting and turning.Magnetic forces drove the flow of plasma, but without sufficient force to overcome the sun’sgravity much of the plasma fell back into the sun. This four–hour event occurred from 10:20 am to2:20 pm EST and was captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory in extreme ultraviolet lightshown here at a high cadence of an image every 36 seconds.
