What happens when the outward force of pressure wins out over gravity in an old star?
They eplode into supernovas.
What force causes a nebula to become a star?
Gravity and heat.
When a star's inward gravity and outward pressure are balance the star is said to be?
Hydrostatic equilibrium occurs when compression due to gravity is balanced by a pressure gradient which creates a pressure gradient force in the opposite direction. The balance of these two forces is known as the hydrostatic balance.
What happens to a star when the outward force of fusion is less than the inward force?
the star collapses in on itself, and usually when the fusion stops it is in the last stages of its life as a giant or supergiant and forms a white dwarf made of the carbon left over from the second stage of helium to carbon fusion from the core of the star that takes place after the hydrogen to helium fusion. after the white dwarf is formed it will eventually cool off into a black dwarf which is basically a carbon corpse of a star
Stars balance there inside gravity by?
The inward force of gravity is counteracted by two outward forces: gas pressure, and radiation pressure. Once the star runs out of fuel, the radiation pressure stops, the gas pressure is no longer enough to counteract gravity, and the star collapses - into a white dwarf, a neutron star, or a black hole, depending on its mass.
The force that causes moving objects in a circle to be pushed outward?
Centrifugal force
What does the equilibruim between the outward pressures of radiaion and the force of gravity do?
While the star can produce energy, that keeps the star in balance - it keeps the star from collapsing. By the way, another outward force is the gas pressure, but that, by itself, is not enough to counteract the force of gravity in the case of a star.
What does the equilibrium between the outward pressures of radiation and the force of gravity do?
"While the star can produce energy, that keeps the star in balance - it keeps the star from collapsing. By the way, another outward force is the gas pressure, but that, by itself, is not enough to counteract the force of gravity in the case of a star."

What is a force that causes an object to move outward in a circle?
gravity. (gravitational force.)
If rotation of an object causes centrifugal force which pulls things outward why does a vortex pull things inward?
Centrifugal force doesn't exist, and no outward-pulling force is caused by rotating an object.
What forces are at war within a star?
A star is the equilibrium of the outward force a continuous fusion explosion versus the inward force of the gravity of its huge mass.
What happens when the outward force of pressure wins out over gravity in an old star?
They eplode into supernovas.
Inside a star the force of gravity is balanced by?
If the force of gravity crushing a star in weren't balanced, it would collapse. The outward-pushing force counteracting gravity is the energy produced in nuclear fusion, when the heat and pressure inside of stars smashes atoms together.
What force creates a star?
Gravity is the force that causes stars to be created
What creats a star?
Gravity is the force that causes stars to be created
What force causes a nebula to become a star?
Gravity and heat.
