Formation. Our solar system formed about 4.5 billion years ago from a dense cloud of interstellar gas and dust. The cloud collapsed, possibly due to the shockwave of a nearby exploding star, called a supernova. When this dust cloud collapsed, it formed a solar nebula—a spinning, swirling disk of material. Approximately 4.6 billion years ago, the solar system was a cloud of dust and gas known as a solar nebula. Gravity collapsed the material in on itself as it began to spin, forming the sun in the center of the nebula. With the rise of the sun, the remaining material began to clump together. Part of Hall of the Universe. The Sun and the planets formed together, 4.6 billion years ago, from a cloud of gas and dust called the solar nebula. A shock wave from a nearby supernova explosion probably initiated the collapse of the solar nebula. ... In a similar manner, moons formed orbiting the gas giant planets. Hope this helps!
Answer:
As you already know, sunlight (solar energy, or energy from the Sun) is the primary source of energy for all processes that occur in Earth's atmosphere and hydrosphere. This means that solar energy is also the primary driver of winds and ocean currents .
Explanation:
1.Tainan=120dE
longitude difference=120-0=120
if 1degree= 4 minutes
120dg=(120×4)=480minutes
=8hrs
12:00pm + 8hrs
<h2> Ans=2000hrs or 8:00pm</h2>
<h2>Yukon =150dg W </h2><h3> 150×4=600minutes=10hrs</h3><h3> 12:00-10hrs=2:00am</h3><h2> =2:00AM</h2>
<h2> NOTE: if it's Degrees east you add by the time given and subtract by the time given when it's Degrees West</h2>
Answer:
c) The planetoid is being attracted toward another massive object.
Explanation:
We can rule out a, the planetoid is travelling through space, friction is effectively nonexistent. B can be ruled out as well, as there is nothing in space that could naturally repel a planetoid. D is also implausible, as the question says the planetoid slows down for a certain period in its orbit, suggesting this behavior is repeated. Option c is incredibly likely, as the planetoid is far from the sun, a large mass, possibly far smaller than the sun but also far closer to the planetoid, could have the effect described in the question.
