Explain the origin of earth's motion based on the origin of the galaxy and its solar system?

There are numerous theories as to the origin of our galaxy and our solar system within our galaxy.  I have attached two references that will detail several of them.

As far as motion of the earth, our planet has a prograde revolution around the sun. Prograde motion would be a counterclockwise motion.  All the planets in our solar system have this prograde revolution.  They all accomplish this revolution in the same plane.  Most all the planets have a prograde roatation, like earth, as they perform this revolution.

One of the theories about how the universe and the galaxies and solar systems were formed after the Big Bang is a theory called the "nebular theory."  A nebula is a gas and dust cloud.  According to this theory, the gas and dust particles collided with each other, were gravitationally attracted to each other, and got progressively larger.  As this formation happened, a centripetal force was created by the force of the collisions and the mass of planets began to spin and revolve.  It should be noted there is room for the revolutions and rotations to go one way or another, depending on the angle of incidence in the collision of said gas and dust particles.  This would be one accounting for the present motion of the planetary constituents in our solar system.

pav-90 [236]

An element can be identified by its unique atomic number. When we look in the periodic table, we find that the element with an atomic number of 9292 is uranium. There is only option containing uranium which also confirms the mass number we found. So, the daughter nucleus of the decay is 234^U.

In an alpha decay, a positively charged particle similar to a helium-4 nucleus gets released from the parent nucleus spontaneously. As the composition suggests, an alpha particle consists of two protons and 2 neutrons. The particle does not travel much, but in short range, it carries the most energy.

It's smart to use the thermal energy provided by the radioactive decay to generate electricity. This allows for a stable supply of power without consuming much space which means the saved space can be used for more scientific equipment.  The alpha particle, structurally equivalent to the nucleus of a helium atom.

How much power is needed to lift the 200-N object to a height of 10 m in 4 s?
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

500 watts

Explanation:

Recall that the definition of power is the amount of energy delivered per unit of time.

In our case, the energy delivered is potential energy which we can estimate as the product of the weight of the object times the distance it is lifted above ground:

200 N x 10 m = 2000  Nm

then the power is the quotient of this potential energy divided the time it took to lift the object to that position:

Power = 2000 / 4   Nm/s = 500 Nm/s = 500 watts

Find the velocity and distance travelled of a car that is accelerating at 3 m/s2 for 4 seconds.
marta [7]

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 3 m/s²

t = 4 s

Find: Δx and v

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (4 s) + ½ (3 m/s²) (4 s)²

Δx = 24 m

v = at + v₀

v = (3 m/s²) (4 s) + 0 m/s

v = 12 m/s
