At which rate do Stars burn there fuel, I know there are different stars (giants,dwarfs etc...)
For instance i read that our sun fuses 655million tons of Hydrogen into 650 million tons of Helium. The other 5 million is converted into 400 million watts of energy in the process. How did they get this figure for our star. And what is the rate for others, and how do they get the rate(s) for those stars?
