Answer:
Explained in Depth.
Explanation:
It is all matter of what kind of stars are we talking about, for simplicity let's say we are talking about normal stars such as our sun.
If there is a molecular cloud that has a mass that is slightly larger than our sun then it is possible that the gravity will eventually pull together cloud into a sphere that would have enough mass to start nuclear fusion which is important to become a star.
Mass of such cloud would be 1.98x10^30Kg almost equal to the sun's mass.
All of this implies that stars are formed when there is enough mass to let gravity pull it all together into a sphere that has enough gravitational pull to start nuclear fusion inside the core.
Yes, Oxygen atoms may bond to themselves and they do, forming diatomic Oxygen gas.
Suppose that a horizontal force F is applied to a block resting on a rough surface (see Figure 6.1). As long as the applied force F is less than a certain maximum force (Fmax), the block will not move. This means that the net force on the block in the horizontal direction is zero. Therefore, besides the applied force F, there must be a second force f acting on the block. The force f must have a strength equal to F, and it must be pointing in the opposite direction. This force f is called the friction force, and because the block does not move, we are dealing with static friction. Experiments have shown that the force of static friction is largely independent of the area of contact and proportional to the normal force N acting between the block and the surface. The static friction force is
