Question
equilibrium: a state of balance where opposing forces, influences, or rates are equal
why do more massive stars change and die faster?
as you remember from the text, forces within a star, inside a star gravity pushes hydrogen
and with such a force that sometimes these elements fuse into
heavier elements. this game simulates just that! the goal is to make one tile of fe, or iron-56.
a star needs to have a lot of gravity in order to push elements together tightly enough to create
heavier elements. as you might remember, the more mass a star has, the more gravity it has
in order to play this game, you just need to press any of the four arrow keys
to make a move. this causes all the tiles to slide as far as possible.
every time you manage to combine two element tiles, the score will increase.
remember from the video that when two atoms are combined, some mass is
transformed into energy. in the game, when you combine two elements, your
score will increase, so for now lets call the points in the game energy points.
the higher your score, the more mass was transformed into energy. finally,
when you reach game over, this means your star has died. https://dimit.me/fe26/
- what force is important in the process of nuclear fusion in a star?
En el proceso de fusión nuclear en una estrella, la gravedad es la fuerza clave. Dentro de la estrella, la gravedad empuja los hidrógeno y otros elementos hacia adentro, creando las condiciones necesarias (presión y temperatura suficientes) para que la fusión nuclear ocurra. Sin la gravedad, los átomos no se acercarían lo suficiente para fusionarse.
