Question
Chapter 7, Problem 1QP
To determine
Arrange the following events in order of the formation of a planetary system.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1QP
The following events are arranged in order of the formation of a planetary system.
Explanation of Solution
A planetary system is a system of planets, their moons and other smaller objects in orbit around a star.
Primary atmosphere is composed most of hydrogen and helium.
The same time of forms that host the planet.
Secondary atmosphere is forms as a result of comet impacts, volcanism or another process. Sometimes after this formation its host planet has formed.
Conclusion:
Arrangement in order of formation of a planetary system,
- 1. Gravity collapses a cloud of interstellar gas
- 2. A rotating disk forms
- 3. Dust grains stick together by static electricity
- 4. Small bodies collide to form larger bodies
- 5. Primary atmospheres form
- 6. A stellar wind ‘turns on’ and sweeps away gas and dust
- 7. Primary atmospheres are lost
- 8. Secondary atmospheres form
Therefore, the following events are arranged in order of the formation of a planetary system.

If the statement is false, correct the statement to make it true. 12. An object in uniform circular motion has a constant velocity while experiencing centripetal acceleration. 13. An object travelling in uniform circular motion experiences an outward centrifugal force that tends to pull the object out of the circular path. 14. An object with less inertia can resist changes in motion more than an object with more inertia. 15. For an object sliding on a horizontal surface with a horizontal applied force, the frictional force will always increase as the applied force increases.arrow_forward
