Answer : The given statement is True.

Explanation -

Nuclear fusion is a thermonuclear reaction in which light stable nuclei combine with each other in order to form a heavy stable nucleus with the release of large amount of energy.

In case of stars, four hydrogen nuclei combine with each other to form a helium nucleus with a release of 26 Mev per cycle.

Thus, nuclear fusion occurs in stars is true statement.

Identify and compare 4 Fundamental forces (lesson 1.04)
Tom [10]
4 fundamental forses are: strong, electro-magnetic, weak, gravity.
The strong force is the force which can hold nucleus together against enormous forces of repulsion of the protons is strong indeed. In comparasing to electro magnetic force, this force in not an inverse square and it has very short range.
The electro-magnetic force manifests itself as trough the forces between charges(Colubos law) and the magnetic force, both of which are summarized in the Lorentz force law. The electro-magnetic force holds atoms and moleculs together.
The weak force is a force between elementary particles certain processes that take place with low probability, as radio-active beta-decay and collisions between neutrinos and other particles.
The gravity force is the weakest of all 4 fundamental forces. It is the force of  attraction between all masses in the universe, especially the attraction of the earth's mass for bodies near its suface. Newton's law of gravity states that gravitational force between two bodies is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
