This wouldn't happen to be a homework question would it? If it is there is a separate forum for that.

This does seem like a homework question, or someone new to astrophysics.


Gravity is a central force. It pulls matter together.

So how would that affect a star, which is a very, very hot ionized gas, and how would it affect the formation of planets in a dust cloud, for example?
