Relativistic Energy and Momentum

According to classical physics, time flow is the same for every observer. But according to einstein's theory, time flow is different for different observers. The idea that time flow is not the same for all may sound strange because we may not experience this effect in everyday life. This effect is only observed when an object moves with some velocity comparable to the velocity of light. This velocity is termed relativistic velocity.

The photons that make up the cosmic microwave background were emitted about 380,000 years after the Big Bang. Today, 13.8billion years after the Big Bang, the wavelengths of these photons have been stretched by a factor of about 1100 since they were emitted because lengths in the expanding universe have increased by that same factor of about 1100. Consider a cubical region of empty space in today’s universe 1.00 m on a side, with a volume of 1.00 m3. What was the length s0 of each side and the volume V0 of this same cubical region 380,000 years after the Big Bang? s0 = ? m V0 = ? m^3 Today the average density of ordinary matter in the universe is about 2.4×10−27 kg/m3. What was the average density ?(rho)0 of ordinary matter at the time that the photons in the cosmic microwave background radiation were emitted? (rho)0 = ? kg/m^3
Q. How will our sun actually die? Pls answer in 2-3 sentences. Thank You!
The Sun is powered by releasing hydrogen to helium. Through either the proton-proton chain or the CNO cycle, the basic reaction is 4 1H morph into 1 4He, releasing nuclear binding energy (and losing mass) in the process. The mass of one proton 1H is 1.6726 x 10-24 gm and the mass of one helium nucleus 4He is 6.6447 x 10-24 gm. What is the mass difference in gm between 4 protons and one helium nucleus? Calculate the ratio of the mass difference to the original mass of the 4 protons as a comparison.
