Q:
Solar Energy reaches earth at rate of 1.4kW per square
meter of surface perpendicular to the direction of the sun.
by how much does the mass of sun decrease per second
owing to energy loss? The mean radius of the Earth’s
orbit is 1.5 x 1011m.
r
• Surface area of a sphere of radius r is A = 4πr2
• Total Power radiated by Sun = power received by a sphere whose
radius is equal to earth’s orbit radius
E= mc2 ---> Sunshine Won’t Be Forever !
Total Power radiated by Sun
= power received by a
sphere with radius equal to
earth-sun orbit radius( r in figure)

Mass Can “Morph” into Energy & Vice Versa
• Unlike in Newtonian mechanics
• In relativistic physics : Mass and Energy are the same
thing
• New word/concept : MassEnergy , just like SpaceTime
• It is the mass-energy that is always conserved in every
reaction : Before & After a reaction has happened
• Like squeezing a balloon : Squeeze here, it grows
elsewhere
– If you “squeeze” mass, it becomes (kinetic) energy &
vice verca !
• CONVERSION FACTOR = C2
• This exchange rate never changes !

What makes it explosive is 1 mole of Uranium = 6.023 x 1023 Nuclei !!
Energy Released by 1 Kg of Fissionable Uranium
1 Mole of Uranium = 236 gm, Avagadro''s # = 6.023 ! 1023 Nuclei

So in 1 kg N =

Nuclear Fusion : What Powers the Sun
Opposite of Fission

Nuclei are stable, bound by an attractive "Strong Force"

Nuclear Fusion: Wishing For The Star
• Fusion is eminently desirable because
– More Energy/Nucleon
• (3.52 MeV in fusion Vs 1 MeV in fission)
• 2H + 3H  4He + n + 17.6 MeV
– Relatively abundant fuel supply, No danger like nuclear reactor going
supercritical
• Unfortunately technology not commercially available
– What’s inside nuclei => protons and Neutrons
– Need Large KE to overcome Coulomb repulsion between nuclei
• About 1 MeV needed to bring nuclei close enough together for Strong
Nuclear Attraction  fusion
• Need to
– heat particle to high temp such that thermal energy E= kT ≈ 10keV 
tunneling thru coulomb barrier
– Implies heating to T ≈ 108 K ( like in stars)
– Confine Plasma (± ions) long enough for fusion
» In stars, enormous gravitational field confines plasma
