Answer:

Explanation:

Given That,

Earth's mass is 6 × 10^24 kg.

Mass of the Sun = 330,000 times the mass of Earth.

I also present this data as scientific notation.

Mass of the Sun = 3.3 × 10^5 times the mass of the Earth.

From the data and conditions,

Mass of the Sun


= 3.3 * 10^5 * (6 * 10^(24) kg)\\\\ = 19.8 * 10^(29) kg \\\\= 1.98 * 10 ^(30) kg.

----------------------

The Sun's mass is said to be 330,000 larger than Earth; This in scientific notation represents:

330 * 10³ times.

The mass of the earth is known to be equal to:

6 * 10²⁴ kg

Knowing this, then the mass of the sun is equal to:

Mass of the Sun = 330 * 10³ * mass of the Earth

Mass of the Sun = 330 * 10³ * 6 * 10²⁴ kg

Mass of the Sun = 1.98 * 10³⁰ kg
