How does a galaxy's gravity affect a planet?

A galaxy's gravity can influence a planet by keeping it in orbit around a central star, like our Sun. The gravitational interactions with other celestial bodies in the galaxy can also affect a planet's orbit and trajectory over long periods of time. Additionally, the overall distribution of mass in a galaxy can influence the movement and behavior of planets within it.


How does gravity affect the stars moon an planets?

Gravity keeps the planets in orbit around the sun and the stars and the stars in orbit around the center of the galaxy. Gravity also holds the stars together against their own internal pressure.

A group of stars gas and dust held together by gravity is a?

A group of stars, gas, and dust held together by gravity is known as a galaxy. Galaxies come in various shapes and sizes and can contain billions to trillions of stars. Our own galaxy, the Milky Way, is a spiral galaxy containing around 100-400 billion stars. The gravitational forces within a galaxy keep its components bound together in a cohesive structure.


Which of these is a grouping of billions of stars, gas, and dust held together by gravity?

A galaxy. We live in one corner of a galaxy that we have named the "Milky Way" galaxy. It is thought to contain anywhere from 200 to perhaps 400 billion stars. The grouping of billions of stars, gas, and dust into a physically metastable rotating state by gravity is, by definition, a galaxy.

Do the sombrero have gravity?

I assume you mean the sombrero galaxy. It is a galaxy, hence it has mass, hence it has gravity. If you mean a "sombrero" as in hat, it also has mass and therefore gravity. The gravity, in each case, can be calculated via the gravitational formula.
