What force is responsible for holding the stars gases and dust together in a galaxy?

The answer is simple: gravity.


What are the characteristics of gases?

Gases are not restricted by gravity, so the molecules fly around, rather than stick together.


Is a star is a ball of gas?

Yes.


A group of gases and dust held together by gravity and travels through space?

A Nebula! :D!


What name is given to the region of burning gases?

a region of burning gases


How does gases in outer space stay together?

In outer space, gases stay together due to the force of gravity. Gravity pulls gas particles towards each other, causing them to form clouds, stars, and galaxies. The balance between the outward pressure from gas particles and the inward pull of gravity helps maintain the shape and structure of these cosmic objects.


How many gases are in burning plastic?

there are so many gases


What causes interstellar dust and gas to start to contract and form a protostar?

A protostar forms when gravity pulls the dust and gases in a nebula together.


Could you land on the outer planets?

No. The outer planets do not have solid surfaces. Those planets are made of gases held together by gravity.


Why does liquid take the shape of a sphere when in zero gravity and gases does not?

It is due to surface tension. Surface tension is only for liquids. Due to surface tension surface energy is to be minimized only reducing the area. For a given volume sphere has minimum surface area. Hence spherical shape.


Is the sun a huge sphere of hot gases or rocks?

Does gravity stop gases from escaping form a planet?

Yes, gravity plays a significant role in preventing gases from escaping a planet's atmosphere. The strength of a planet's gravity determines the escape velocity required for gases to break free from the planet's gravitational pull. Planets with higher gravity, like Earth, are able to retain gases more effectively compared to those with weaker gravity.
