Question

What happens to the visible radiation produced by new stars within a molecular cloud?

Answer 1

The visible radiation produced by new stars within a molecular cloud get absorbed by dust grains and heats up the cloud

A molecular cloud is an interstellar cloud of gas and dust in which molecules can form, the most common of which is hydrogen .

The formation of stars occurs exclusively within molecular clouds because of their low temperatures and high densities, because the gravitational force acting to collapse the cloud must exceed the internal pressures that are acting "outward" to prevent a collapse.

Visible radiation are absorbed by dust grains and heats up the cloud as it cannot penetrate through the cloud instead get absorbed by the cloud . Newly formed stars are visible nearby, their images reddened by blue light which got scattered by the pervasive dust.
