How Big Is The Sun?

[@enoraskye6020]

In 8th grade, I did a scale model of the solar system. This included scale distance. In order to keep all the planets within school grounds, I had to make my sun the size of a tennis ball, and all my planets were nothing more than a speck of sand (or smaller). Mercury, Venus and Earth were in the Auditorium, where my sun was. Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus were in the Hall. Neptune in the Gym, and Pluto (which was still a planet when I was a kid) was placed just barely on school grounds, in the baseball field). I haven't done the math recently, but I want to say it was just around 1000 feet from my scale sun. My science teacher said it was the coolest solar system model she had ever seen.

[@ericgolightly8450]

That's so cool! I wanna do that

[@sphericalcat1434]

the scale model of anything in the universe is the hardest thing ever. the nearest star would be about 1500 km (900 miles) away

[@neilmcmahon]

It's so big that it's own gravitational field is keeping it alive.

wait so how bigs the sun

[@almightyshippo1197]

[@Dimitar997]

454ffv well if its radius is 10x of that of Jupiter, then it's about 1000 times bigger than Jupiter.

[@Dimitar997]

Shakih Sokamer maybe

[@zool201975]

454ffv i think we just cant really scale these things mentally anyway. we can understand the immensity but like lets say we can picture a meter we cant picture a million meters. so its really impossible for any of us to really scale of a continent let alone something even bigger. still i reckon we could get closer to really picturing it if wed use virtual reality and tinker with things like the distance between the earth and the sun reduced to the distance of the moon. how does the sky and horizon look then.

[@CheCheDaWaff]

***** Actually you _can_ just cube it! If you scale up any object x times in 3D space it's volume will go up x^3 times. If you don't believe me try this: Volume of Jupiter is: (4/3)* pi* (R^3) [where R is radius of Jupiter] The Sun has 10 times the radius, which is 10*R Therefore the volume of the Sun is: (4/3)* pi* (10*R)^3 Which is: (4/3)* pi* (R^3)* (10^3) You can see that this is just 10^3 times the volume of Jupiter!

[@almightyshippo1197]

Jamal l'Friedchicken It's certainly bigger than my house. :P Although, our sun is actually tiny compared to some of the other stars out there. For example, UY Scuti is roughly 1,708 Solar Radii (1 Solar Radii = 1 of our Sun, so ~1,700 times the radius of the Sun, or 1,708 x 695,600km... tiny really).

[@BoomBrush]

+Michael Guiliano this is the best comment ive seen all day

[@hazardeur]

not sure but i think you're missing this one: "In fact, any two objects of ROUGHLY THE SAME DENSITY...."

[@jonedwards5953]

+Hazardeur stone ball then

[@justtemporaryreally4086]

Yeah the identical apparent size and identical pull seem to be unrelated in reality. The gravitational force of an object is supposed to be proportional to its mass, regardless of size, and also, given the same density, mass is NOT proportional to size, it goes up exponentially (that and a hydrogen based star is definitely not dense compared to a chunk of rock.). The fact the moon has the same gravitational pull as the sun has nothing to do with its identical apparent size but only a combination of mass and distance, and could be explained by saying the only "stable" orbital distance where the moon could settle was with equal pull from the sun and earth. However, calling the identical apparent size of the sun and moon a mere coincidence sounds to me at best like lazy science. Some scientists just don't like admitting they don't know something like it was something to be ashamed of.

[@jonedwards5953]

EXACTLY

[@ultravidz]

Now THIS is the kinda MinutePhysics I remember!

[@RoScFan]

The thing that amazes me more than anything out of all these things is how far away the moon is. The Earth and Moon seem much closer to each other.

[@homegirl44]

Me after the quick scientific calculations towards the end of the video: ".........what?"

[@VEE727]

Yeah he's rushing through the videos now. I don't understand why

[@juvasaditya6384]

True

[@deamon6681]

VEE727 Wait what? As far as I remember that was the concept about minutephysics.

[@LightningSonic]

VEE727 To fully grasp or commit all the information to heart, it sometimes requires many multiple viewings and note-taking. But I get the gist of what he's saying in this video. He said that if two planets (in this case the sun and the moon) appear to have the same size, their radii divided by their distances (from earth to the respective planet) are roughly equivalent between the two.So, (and I looked up the data to calculate this) the one is 0.0045186952235024 and the other is 0.0046366666666667. Basically, they're the same. That's the result of dividing the radius of the moon with the distance from earth to it, and then the same with the sun. It's a factoid. It doesn't provide much use, but is interesting.

[@zolikoff]

VEE727 Didn't rush that part. He showed the formula for the gravitational tidal force to demonstrate that it is, in fact, proportional to (r/d)^3. It's just simple math that doesn't need explanation; anyone who knows the formula will understand it, and anyone who doesn't know the formula won't understand any explanation given for it unless he reads up on it. For such a person, it is enough for the purpose of the video to just state that the tidal force *is* proportional to that formula, without any further explanation.

[@dryued6874]

[@josh11735]

Wow, I always underestimate how far away the moon really is... Awesome explanation MinutePhysics! :D

Beef Master Just blows your mind how big some of the stars are out there and how far away they are. Considering how big they are we still can't see them without high powered telescopes, this just gives us a tiny idea how huge our galaxy is, nevermind how big the universe is. Simply amazing.

[@Gh0stClown]

neeneko To have the mass of the Earth (about 6x10^27 grams) and the volume of the sun (1.41x10^33 cubic cm) You'd need a material that has a density of about 4x10^-6 gcm^-3, or about 0.0004% the density of polystyrene. No way a planet made of a material like that won't crumble under it's own gravity

[@jeffdazle]

Make video on the biggest star in our galaxy

[@sratra1]

Jeff Pierre I think that would be fun to watch too but I dont think he would do it because people would say its unoriginal. There's tons of videos that are already out there on KZbin for this.

[@zolikoff]

sratra1 Perhaps it would be fun to explain how all those videos are wrong because they depict smooth spherical objects for those stars, when in reality they'd be uneven, swelling globs of a very low density gas.

[@zolikoff]

[@williamhesford1363]

Sri Krishna Chaitanya as of lately with all the fuss on the reality of gravity which I believe is all in the mind, I think that formula might be full of black holes. Actually that formula is probably full of money. Backed by the richest with an agenda. Anything associated with gravity especially math equations are becoming very suspect. If gravity does not exist or proven its shouldnt be used as a variable in math. I am sure nasa put together bogus pages long math equations that had gravity formulas being used. Well since its failed to be proven then all those particular math problems using a gravity formula must be wrong.

[@Jeonsaryu]

William Hesford Please... just go back to wearing your tinfoil hat, and flipping the bird at the surveillance cameras operated by "lizard men".

[@JessperC]

stellarfirefly When dealing with big numbers scientist generally fall into a scale that deals with magnitudes. If something isn't 10x or 1/10th as much it's pretty close, this can be a bit confusing to everyone else.

[@Insertnamesz]

***** I calculated this last semester in my mechanics class. The sun accounts for about 40% while the moon accounts for about 60% of the total tidal strength. They may be even more like 47% and 53%, but I can't exactly remember. Will need to go digging through my notes ;P

Another fun facts : UY Scuti is a bright red hypergiant and pulsating variable star in the constellation Scutum. It is currently the largest known star by radius and is also one of the most luminous of its kind. It has an estimated average median radius of 1,708 solar radii, or a diameter of 2.4 billion km (1.5 billion mi; 15.9 AU); thus a volume 5 billion times that of the Sun. If placed at the center of the Solar system, its photosphere would engulf the orbit of Jupiter, and the radius is about the same size as the orbit of Saturn.

[@Teth47]

Yes, coincidence

[@WarmWeatherGuy]

The tidal effect is not proportional to (r/d)^3. It is proportional to the mass / (diameter ^3). Mass is the density times the volume. The volume goes with r^3 so if the density were the same then their tidal effects would be the same. The moon's density is 3.34 while the sun's density is 1.4 (times that of water). The moon is 2.4 times more dense than the sun. It says this in the video if you listen carefully. There is a disclaimer that the density has to be the same.

Quinten Messemaker Humanity created religion. You should have lost faith in Humanity a long time ago.

That was an extremely cool visualization

[@iota-09]

i can tell by a fact though, that you have lots of saliva in your mouth when talking. gee, i keep hearing that "splash" "shlip" "plup" constantly when you talk, especially during the last segment of the video.

[@klisar23]

iota-09 I cant stop hearing it now, damn you

[@randallkelley3599]

Just luv your vids, the pics and the voice overs. Info. is very interesting!. Space/universe is so mind blowing!

[@thepropolys]

It's not really a coincidence because God designed them to appear the same size in the night sky.

[@MindLaboratory]

Andrew White Yes, you're right - no coincidence at all! Praise be to Apollo!

[@JoachimTumanowicz]

Andrew White I know, right? I'm so furious that people don't believe in Helios anymore. I mean, the proof is right there in the sky. A very old book says that Helios travels from east to west in his flaming chariot. Well, there you have it. And the thunderstorms? Totally Zeus.

[@DanielLCarrier]

Andrew White Why would God do that? If you can't predict beforehand which coincidences God would cause, and you can't figure out how common coincidences should be by chance, then you can't use coincidences as evidence regarding God.

[@thepropolys]

Daniel Carrier God made the two main lights in the sky, the sun to rule the day, and the moon to rule the night (read Genesis chapter 1). The fact is that God made the universe; therefore, the sun and moon appearing the same size in the sky is a design by God. All of creation is evidence for God, and all know that God created it.

[@JoachimTumanowicz]

Andrew White Flying Spaghetti Monster created pirates and then people. You don't really see any pirates these days but there are lots of people. Therefore a man is Flying Spaghetti Monster's design, not Jehowa's

[@Bluebirdfalling]

You compared the planets to the size of the sun. And then added a bunch of gibberish. Bravo.

[@SkinnyBigManVids]

It's called minute physics but I'll have to watch it about 5 times before I fully understand everything haha

[@marieroselli6134]

Kik. l

[@moctezumaharo9549]

You are using the radios of the moon and sun in the second slide (00:10), even though the proportion remains the same, it bugs me a little that you point the diameter in the drawing.

[@moctezumaharo9549]

Moctezuma Haro Radius*

[@pauloabundo]

Full screen or not, my brain still hurt.

[@dcanoable]

Could you describe the math you used at 1:26

[@arasanmark818]

I like watching these kinds of videos even though I don't understand much of the maths involved

[@theunknownblock5942]

Maths? What country are you in? I'm in America, so I just say math.

[@mridulatirumala3065]

I just love watching these videos

[@haytemhaider5959]

I have always thought about how weird of coincidence that the moon perfectly blocks the sun and how weird also we only see one side of the moon from the earth. So cool.

[@carultch]

The first one is just a coincidence. The second part of what you said is true for most of the moons that are large enough to be spheres, and is no coincidence at all.

[@linguaphilly]

Wow, It's pretty mind boggling that the force of our teeny tiny moon has is about the same as that of the sun!

[@deliciousd2]

Aw, you said it takes 4 and a half seconds for light to get to the surface of the sun which isn't true at all. That's how long it would take light to travel the distance of the sun but from the inside a photon bouncing around can take almost as long as 70,000 years to get from the center to the surface.

[@larrylarry3437]

MinutePhysics The only reason I'm interested in science.

[@EricFaucon]

What about density of objects ? A black hole is super tiny (singularity) but has quite an effect on tides, don't you think ?

[@cagedtigersteve]

So when calculating gravitational forces which objects should I consider? Earth, the moon, the Sun, Jupiter? Saturn?

[@justme.maryam]

There is NO coïncidence or luck when the all universe is so perfect.

[@dimensio_italian_magician]

There is. Get over it. Your "holy daddy in the sky" is dumb nonsense.

[@sikensie]

Watching this video I just casually saw my first Martian eclipse. Damn, that was so awesome.

[@papajohn2288]

This math is more scary than any creepypasta i've ever seen

[@escraftTH]

I really love your vid. the simple explanations are really good for noob nerd and the complex equations are also good for pro nerd.

[@anmoljain365]

I'm such a big fan of your channel. I've got 1 ques 'Why orbits of massive objects are elliptical?'

[@Nilguiri]

+Anmol Jain All orbits are elliptical.

[@etiennea-d-s5345]

Thanks for the french subtitles :)

[@anilmirkute955]

Nice can you please show a vid to explain the avagadro number

[@raph9093]

for anyone who couldn't pause on time, underneath pluto at 0:34, it says 'not planets, still cool'

[@rbvfeehfbudenrj]

Pretty big

[@douglasbaiense]

Love this kind if evocative content. Thx a lot
