<h2>Answer: The planets formed at the center of a collapsing spinning cloud of gas and dust.</h2>
The most accepted theory so far, in relation to the formation of our solar system is that it was originated by the contraction of a cloud of interstellar gas due to its own gravity.
To understand it better:
According to this theory, a cloud of gas and interstellar dust began to shrink due to its own gravity. This led to the increase in the temperature of the system, which began to rotate forming a large gas sphere in the center (the Sun) with a flat disk around it.
This is how the Sun formed from the sphere in the center and the planets formed from the disk orbiting in the same plane.
Answer:
4.88 K.
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Number of mole (n) = 5 moles
Pressure (P) = 1 atm
Volume (V) = 2 L
Gas constant (R) = 0.082 atm.L/Kmol
Temperature (T) =?
The temperature of the gas can be obtained by using the ideal gas equation as illustrated below:
PV = nRT
1 × 2 = 5 × 0.082 × T
2 = 0.41 × T
Divide both side by 0.41
T = 2 / 0.41
T = 4.88 K
Therefore, the temperature of the gas is 4.88 K.
<span>From the point of view of the astronaut, he travels between planets with a speed of 0.6c. His distance between the planets is less than the other bodies around him and so by applying Lorentz factor, we have 2*</span>√1-0.6² = 1.6 light hours. On the other hand, from the point of view of the other bodies, time for them is slower. For the bodies, they have to wait for about 1/0.6 = 1.67 light hours while for him it is 1/(0.8) = 1.25 light hours. The remaining distance for the astronaut would be 1.67 - 1.25 = 0.42 light hours. And then, light travels in all frames and so the astronaut will see that the flash from the second planet after 0.42 light hours and from the 1.25 light hours is, 1.25 - 0.42 = 0.83 light hours or 49.8 minutes.
Decreases, stays the same, increases.
The volume decreases because as air is cooled, the individual molecules collectively possess less kinetic energy and the distances between them decrease, thus leading to a decrease in the volume they occupy at a certain pressure (please note that my answer only holds under constant pressure; air, as a gas, doesn't actually have a definite volume).
The mass stays the same because physical processes do not create or destroy matter. The law of conservation of mass is obeyed. You're only cooling the air, not adding more air molecules.
The density decreases because as the volume decreases and mass stays the same, you have the same mass occupying a smaller volume. Density is mass divided by volume, so as mass is held constant and volume decreases, density increases.

Answer: Paths of the planets follow an elliptical orbit around the sun</h2>
Explanation:
Copernicus's model of the universe (heliocentric theory) was refuting the long life geocentric theory (the Earth as the center of the universe) proposed by Ptolemy and accepted by the Catholic Church.
However, the heliocentric theory did not explain why planets orbit the Sun at different speeds at different times, because<u> this model used only circular orbits. </u>
Years later, the astronomer Johannes Kepler refined the Copernicus' heliocentric theory with the introduction of <u>elliptical orbits</u> with the formulation of his three laws of planetary motion.
Where Kepler’s 1st Law is a clear example:
<em>The orbit of a planet around the Sun, is in the form of an ellipse with the Sun at one of the two foci of that ellipse. </em>
