What is the name of the collection of stars held together by the force of gravity?
The collection of stars held together by the force of gravity is called a galaxy. Galaxies can vary in size and shape, and they contain not only stars but also gas, dust, and dark matter. Our own galaxy is known as the Milky Way.
What of the sun's major influence on all of the objects within the Milky Way is called what?
The sun's major influence on all objects within the Milky Way is called its gravitational pull. This gravitational force affects the motion and orbits of planets, moons, asteroids, and other celestial bodies within our galaxy.
Where is no gravity located?
There is nowhere that gravity is absent: it may be too weak to have any noticeable effect or the gravitational forces of two (or more) masses may be in balance. In outer space, the earth's gravitational force will be weak the sun's gravity will have a small effect on you anywhere within the solar system. And however small it is, there is the gravitational force of the Milky Way Galaxy acting on you.
How was the Milky Way created?
The Milky Way formed about 13.6 billion years ago from a huge cloud of gas and dust in space. As gravity pulled these materials together, they began to collapse and eventually formed the Milky Way galaxy that we see today. The Milky Way continues to evolve through the interactions of stars, gas, and dark matter within it.
Milky way made of?
The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy that contains billions of stars, dust, and gas. It is held together by gravity and has a central bulge surrounded by a disk. Our solar system resides in one of the spiral arms of the Milky Way.
What is the force that stops the sun escaping the milky way?
gravity
What force keeps the arms of the milky way spining around its center?
gravity
Gina is trying to describe the force that both holds the Milky Way galaxy together and holds the Milky Way galaxy to other galaxies together in a cluster. Gina is describing .?
Gravity on both a galactic and intergalactic scale.
How fast does space junk fly?
by the no gravity in the milky way
What is another way to say 'the force due to gravity'?
One way to say "the force due to gravity" is "gravitational force."
What keeps the sun from floating away from the galaxy?
Gravity. From the Milky Way in this case.
Does our solar system float on the milky way?
No, there is nothing to "float" in. Like just about any object in outer space, the Solar System ORBITS the center of the Milky Way; it is moving in "free fall", meaning that gravity is the only force of any significance acting on the Solar System.
What of the sun's major influence on all of the objects within the Milky Way is called what?
The sun's major influence on all objects within the Milky Way is called its gravitational pull. This gravitational force affects the motion and orbits of planets, moons, asteroids, and other celestial bodies within our galaxy.
What links the solar system and the Milky Way?
Gravity. The Sun and our solar system are one tiny part of the Milky Way, and about as significant as a single grain of sand on a very long beach.
Where is no gravity located?
There is nowhere that gravity is absent: it may be too weak to have any noticeable effect or the gravitational forces of two (or more) masses may be in balance. In outer space, the earth's gravitational force will be weak the sun's gravity will have a small effect on you anywhere within the solar system. And however small it is, there is the gravitational force of the Milky Way Galaxy acting on you.
What is milky ways gravity compared to the earths gravity?
There are roughly 400 billion stars in the Milky Way. The average mass of each of these stars is about half that of our sun, which is about 300,000 times as massive as Earth. Multiplying these numbers gives us the mass of the galaxy compared to the mass of the earth: 150,000 x 400,000,000,000 = 60 trillion. So the gravitational pull of the galaxy is roughly 60 trillion times that of the earth.
What is the center of the milky way like?
The center of the Milky Way Galaxy we believe to be a supermassive black hole. So the answer to your question would be: a region of intence gravitational force.
