Answer:

co-formation theory    

Explanation:

According to co-formation, the moon and the earth were formed together at the same time from dust present in the solar nebula. Because of gravity, the material was bound together-one formed the earth and other smaller object was moon. According to this theory, the composition of moon and Earth should be same. This theory also explained the location of the moon with respect to the Earth.

Coastal mountains force cool, moist air from oceans to rise as it moves toward land. Clouds form, and precipitation falls on the <u>windward</u> side of the mountain. On the <u>leeward</u> side of the mountain, very little precipitation falls.

Cara is explaining to her sister how the solar system formed. Which description would she use to explain the solar nebula
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. a rotating cloud of dust and gas.

Explanation:

Nebulae are regions of the interstellar medium (clouds) made up of gases (mainly hydrogen and helium) and dust. In other words, nebulae are concentrations of gas in which we find hydrogen, helium and stardust in greater quantities. They are structures that are actually very important for the universe, this because inside it is the place where stars are born, which arise due to the condensation and aggregation of matter. The nebular theory states that the Solar System reached the form current from a solar nebula (a gas cloud), more than 4.5 billion years ago. The large cloud of molecular gas was affected by a certain phenomenon that would have taken place in the vicinity. Like the explosion of a supernova or the passage of a star that would produce a strong gravitational impact. The result of this event made the matter agglomerate in different places. The high concentration of matter caused the nebula to collapse. Becoming a protostar, (bodies whose characteristic is to be surrounded by clouds and contain preplanetary matter inside), that is, gaseous matter in the outermost part and solid inward. At the core of this structure, the temperature is so dominant that nuclear reactions take place to compensate for the gravitational force. This leads to a hydrostatic equilibrium and the formation of a fundamental star: the Sun. The rest of the mass flattened, forming a protoplanetary disk where the protoplanets were being formed, which would evolve to become the current planets, their satellites and the others bodies of the solar system.
