It continues to contract and collapse. In accordance with Boyle's Law, the compression of any gas also increases the temperature and pressure; at some point, the contraction will stop when pressure and gravity are equally balanced.

With a very massive cloud of hydrogen, it's possible that the force of gravity will cause the extreme pressure and temperature sufficient to begin hydrogen fusion. At that point, as they say in Hollywood, "A Star Is Born".

What happens to the force of gravity on a satellite as it gets closer to the sun?

The forces of gravity between any two objects depend on the mass of theobjects ... stronger for greater mass ... and on the distance between them ...stronger for smaller distance.

What happens when the sun's gravity combines with the Moon's gravity and where does it occur?

The gravitational pull of the moon and sun combined just makes the force stronger, and it causes high tides in the oceans.


What happens if you drop a coin from a high building?

If its not a huge big coin - maybe a penny or so, it should fly right back into the building due to upward air pressure glidin up the walls of the building is stronger than the gravity pull.


Does a star 'explode' or 'implode' into a blackhole?

The usual term is "collapse". This happens when the gas and radiation pressure, or degenerate pressure, is no longer enough to counteract gravity.


When does storm form?

Storms form when a low pressure area appears, it usually appears in the Pacific, then as excessive evaporation happens because of too much heat clouds form w/c is then "sucked in" the low pressure area making it stronger, as more evaporation happens the storm becomes stronger.


When was Gravity Happens created?

Gravity Happens was created on 2011-05-19.


What happens to water closest to the moon?

Water on the surface of the moon will rapidly turn to water vapor as there is no atmospheric pressure on the moon. The vapor will then escape the moon's gravity which is much weaker than the gravity on Earth.


What happens when a liquid is not in a container?

In a gravity free situation, it will eventually stabilize into a sphere if the pressure and temperature conditions are right. In a gravity field the liquid will spread out until it finds the place where it doesn't "run downhill" anymore, if the pressure and temperature conditions are right. However it will stop spreading at a point where the surface tension is greater than the gravity.


What happens to the pressure of the earth as depth below the surface increases?

Do planets always have stronger gravity than moons in your Solar System?

Yes, planets generally have stronger gravity than moons because planets are larger and more massive. Gravity depends on an object's mass and distance, so the greater mass of a planet typically results in stronger gravitational pull compared to moons.
