Sagot :
The explanation of astronomers believe that fusion is going in sun after knowing that fusion takes average 14 billion year to undergo and sun is just 5 billion year old is that there are few protons in the sun who undergo fusion by few collisions only and not have to wait 14 billion years.
- Before fusing with another proton, a proton will bounce off other protons in the Sun's crowded core for around 14 billion years, at a pace of 100 million collisions per second.
- However, this is merely the average wait time. Some of the massive number of protons in the Sun's inner area are "lucky," and it only takes a few collisions to produce a fusion reaction, these are the protons responsible for the Sun's energy.
- Most of the Sun's protons have not yet been involved in fusion reactions because it is around 4.5 billion years old.
Thus we can say as their exist few protons inside sun who can undergo the fusion after few collisions only, the astronomers believe that fusion is going on there now also.
