what is our best hypothesis for why all the planets in our solar system orbit in the same direction as the sun rotates?

Physics
1 answer:
avanturin [10]1 year ago
8 0

The conservation of angular momentum is the reason that (nearly) all of them rotate in the same direction.

<h3>Which explanation for the solar system is more plausible?</h3>

The nebular hypothesis is regarded as the most widely accepted theory of planetary creation. According to this theory, a massive molecular cloud several light-years across gravitationally collapsed to create the Solar System 4.6 billion years ago.

<h3>What is the solar system's foundational theory?</h3>

The nebular hypothesis states that our solar system arose at the same period as our Sun. The nebular hypothesis proposes that a spinning cloud of dust called a nebula, composed primarily of light elements, flattened into a protoplanetary disk and developed into a solar system made up of a star with orbiting planets .

Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their breeding grounds. Starting downstream, 3.04 m away from a waterfall 0.585 m in heigh
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

V₀ = 5.47 m/s

Explanation:

The jumping motion of the Salmon can be modelled as the projectile motion. So, we use the formula for the range of projectile motion here:

R = V₀² Sin 2θ/g

where,

R = Range of Projectile = 3.04 m

θ = Launch Angle = 41.7°

V₀ = Minimum Launch Speed = ?

g = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

3.04 m = V₀² [Sin2(41.7°)]/(9.81 m/s²)

V₀² = 3.04 m/(0.10126 s²/m)

V₀ = √30.02 m²/s²

<u>V₀ = 5.47 m/s</u>

Which of these best describes how an appropriate star chart is selected to locate objects in the sky?
Sergio [31]
The layout of the stars in the sky is determined by the date, time of night, and your location (mainly latitude). So to pick the best star chart, you should go with the one that's closest to the present date and your location, then make allowance for what time it is. Everything in the sky moves about a degree every 4 minutes.

Check all of the following statements that describe velocity.
Nata [24]

Answer:

Choices A, B, and C are correct.

Explanation:

Let us look at each of the choices one by one:

A. It is a vector

Yes. Velocity is a vector, or it's a speed with direction.

B. It is the change in displacement divided by the change in time.

Yes. The velocity can be written as

v = \dfrac{\Delta\bold{x}}{\Delta t}

where \bold{x} is the displacement—a vector quantity.

C. It can be measured in meters per second.

Yes. The units of velocity are m/s, but also with a unit vector indicating the direction.

D. It is the slope of the acceleration vs. time graph.

Nope. The velocity is the slope of displacement vs. time graph.

Hence, only choices A, B, and C are correct.
