Simple answer: gravity is the force that causes interstellar matter to clump together and gradually collapse into a star. As the matter collapses it reaches a point where fusion occurs (atoms get bashed together to create larger atoms and LOTS of energy). Then a balance is reached between the energy from fusion trying to blow the star apart, and the force of gravity trying to collapse it down.

Does a water table require gravity for its formation?
A water table is formed by water taking the path of least resistance, deep into the ground. Gravity is the force that makes water take that path.
Can only the outermost electrons of an atom take part in bond formation in all cases?
No, frequently other electrons take part to form a bond.
What role does gravity play in formation of stars?
Stars form when gravity pull gases that are just drifting through the universe together. Take, for example, our sun. The sun was formed when a very huge amount of hydrogen and helium gases came together (via gravity) and started interacting (with fission) to produce heat and light. Eventually, the sun will run out of fuel, and it will no longer be able to produce the energy that 1) heats our planet and 2) prevents gravity from imploding the star. When this happens, the sun will likely become a white dwarf (small, relatively dim star), or similar star, (as it is not big enough to produce a nova or black hole, etc.) and we will all perish :)
What effect does gravity have on stars?
Gravity pulls gas particle together. As gravity pulls more and more atoms, closer and closer together they eventually begin to fuse together. Once fusion starts on a large enough scale, at star is born.
Does the speed of gravity slow down through a solid medium as light does?
The pull of Gravity is instant - just there , no medium can influence it - to destroy it you have to distribute the mass , it takes time to get the masses together and takes time to take them away ! Gravity is not dependant on time ! Do some calcs yourselves on the supposed max. light speed of gravity and the effects on the alignment of the barycentres of binary masses (stars) !
Is gravity considered a gas?
No, it doesn't have mass or take up space. ----------------------------------------------------- No, gravity is a force.
Where does gravity take place?
everywhere
How fast do you have to go for gravity not to take hold of you?
Speed does not matter- gravity will still have a pull.
What galactic formation is made of irregular masses gases and plasma's that reflect light from nearby stars?
The galactic formation you are referring to is known as a nebula. Nebulae are vast clouds of gas and dust in space, often illuminated by the light from nearby stars, which causes them to emit or reflect light. They can take on various shapes and forms, including emission, reflection, and dark nebulae, depending on their composition and the presence of nearby stellar objects.
How are the people selected to take part in American Dad?
Which people ? The writers, the directors, the guest stars ? Please be more specific otherwise your question can't be answer.
What is The Illuminati and why are pop stars often accused of being part of it?
because art is open to many interpretations and some people take bizarre conclusions.
What are the slowest stars to form?
The slowest stars to form are typically the lowest-mass stars, often referred to as red dwarfs. These stars form in dense molecular clouds and take a long time—often millions to tens of millions of years—to accumulate enough mass for nuclear fusion to begin. Their formation is characterized by a gradual buildup of material, leading to a longer and more extended process compared to more massive stars, which can ignite their nuclear processes relatively quickly.
