According to our theory of solar system formation, why do all the planets orbit the Sun in the same direction and in nearly the

same plane?
A. The original solar nebula happened to be disk-shaped by chance.
B. Any planets that once orbited in the opposite direction or a different plane were ejected from the solar system.
C. The laws of conservation of energy and conservation of angular momentum ensure that any rotating, collapsing cloud will end up as a spinning disk.
D. The Sun formed first, and as it grew in size it spread into a disk, rather like the way a ball of dough can be flattened into a pizza by spinning it.
E. Luck explains it, as we would expect that most other solar systems would not have all their planets orbiting in such a pattern.

The laws of conservation of energy and conservation of angular momentum ensure that any rotating, collapsing cloud will end up as a spinning disk is the reason.

<h3>What is an Orbit?</h3>

This is defined as a curved path in space which is characterized by an object going round and round a planet, moon, or star.

In this scenario, all the planets orbit the Sun in the same direction and in nearly the same plane to ensure any rotating, collapsing cloud will end up as a spinning disk.

Which of the following is true regarding the properties of light?
Ivanshal [37]

Light having a dual nature and acting like both a wave and a particle is the correct statement in this scenario.

<h3>What is Light?</h3>

This refers to the electromagnetic radiation found in the electromagnetic spectrum that is perceived by the human eye and has a dual nature. It doesn't require a medium for its propagation unlike sound.

The dual nature of light is as a result of it behaving like a photon which is why it travels in straight lines.

It also behave like a wave because it undergoes processes such as reflection, refraction etc which are common to waves.

Heather and Matthew take 45 s to walk eastward along a straight road to a store 72 m away. What is their average velocity?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

v = 1.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance, d = 72 m

Time taken, t = 45 s

We need to find their average velocity. Average velocity of an object is given by total distance divided by total time taken.

v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{72\ m}{45\ s}\\\\v=1.6\ m/s

So, their average velocity is 1.6 m/s.
