A star that has collapsed under gravity?
A black hole
Did gravity form stars?
Yes. Stars form when clouds of gas and dust, called nebulae, collapse under the force of gravity.
Why prevents stars collapsing under the force of their own gravity?
The pressure of the fusing gasses
Astronauts exercise when in space because bone atrophy under conditions of weightlessness or lack of?
my answer is gravity
What is matter from nebula that has begun to condense under the weight of gravity to begin formation of star?
Protostar
A star that has collapsed under gravity?
A black hole
Where do black holes get gravity?
black holes are stars which collapsed under their own gravity.
What role does gravity play in the formation of black holes?
A black hole is what is left of an object that has completely collapsed under the force of gravity.
What are neutron stare?
Do you mean neutron stars? Any atom you can think of has the same number of electrons as protons in the nucleus. Some stars have collapsed under their own gravity so that the electrons have been squeezed into the nucleus. When they do that, they combine with the equal number of protons to form neutrons in every case. So instead of atoms with neutrons, protons and electrons, you are left with just neutrons, and neutrons are much much smaller than atoms. The densities and gravitational fields in the vicinity are enormous.
What is formed by a star that collapses under gravity to the point that its electrons and protons form neutrons?
A neutron star.neutron star
How are black hole different from neutron star?
A neutron star is an extremely dense object in which atoms have been crushed by gravity, causing electrons and protons to merge into neutrons. A force known as neutron degeneracy pressure prevents it from collapsing further. The neutron star can emit light and other forms of radiation. A black hole is an object that has completely collapsed under the force of gravity, with all mass coming to a single point called a singularity. The gravity is so strong that, within a certain radius nothing, not even light, can escape.
A what is formed by a star that collapses under gravity to the point that its electrons and protrons form neutrons?
Neutron Star. It collapses and splits its atoms apart. It's composed of only neutrons.
Is a black hole fire?
No. A black hole is an object that has completely collapsed under the force of gravity. Within a certain radius not even light can escape.
Were the Earth and Mars ever part of one big entity?
All of the solar system originated from a nebula that collapsed under the influence of gravity. So yes.
What does fell into a black hole mean?
A black hole is an object that has completely collapsed under the force of gravity, crushing atoms and subatomic particles, and having gravity so strong that not even light can escape it.
How is the neutron star different from a black hole?
A neutron star is the remnant of a massive star. It consists of an extremely dense collection of neutrons that is prevented from collapsing further by neutron degeneracy pressure. While they have extremely strong gravity, neutron stars still emit light. A black hole is an object that has completely collapsed under the force of gravity, forming an infinitely dense singularity. Within certain radius, nothing, not even light escapes.
What is motion that is under the influence of gravity alone called?
free fall
