How does the sun produce energy?
The sun produces energy through a process called nuclear fusion. In the sun's core, hydrogen atoms are fused together to form helium atoms, releasing an enormous amount of energy in the form of heat and light. This process involves extreme temperatures and pressures, causing the atoms to collide and overcome their natural repulsion to each other. This constant fusion reaction is what powers the sun and allows it to emit light and heat, providing energy to sustain life on Earth.
