The Sun is a hot plasma (ionized matter) with its inner core at a temperature exceeding $10^{7} \; K$,and its outer surface at a temperature of about $6000 \; K$. At these high temperatures,no substance remains in a solid or liquid phase. In what range do you expect the mass density of the Sun to be,in the range of densities of solids and liquids or gases? Check if your guess is correct from the following data: mass of the Sun $= 2.0 \times 10^{30} \; kg$,radius of the Sun $= 7.0 \times 10^{8} \; m$.

In the figure, chamber $A$ contains a gas, a movable chamber $B$ is placed on top of the gas and it contains $n$ metal balls. The weight of chamber $B$ and the balls is supported by the gas. Chamber $C$ is a vacuum. Let the gas be in equilibrium at pressure $P$. Let $P^{\prime}$ be the pressure if one of the balls is taken away. Find $(P-P^{\prime}) / P$.
