Solar System and Sun's Core Quiz

The Sun is a massive star, like others, that generates heat and light continuously. It's primarily composed of hydrogen gas.

The Sun's energy is created by nuclear reactions within its core, where hydrogen transforms into helium.

The Sun's surface temperature is around 5500°C, while its core reaches a staggering 15 million °C.

Our solar system includes planets, dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, and objects in the Kuiper Belt/Oort Cloud, all orbiting the Sun.

The time an object takes to orbit the Sun varies based on its distance and the Sun's gravitational pull.

Nuclear fusion is a process where atoms combine to release energy in the form of heat and light.

The eight planets in our Solar System are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

Asteroids, comets, and other smaller objects also orbit the Sun, forming the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud.

Each object in the Solar System has unique characteristics like size, distance from the Sun, number of moons, and composition.
