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. 1. Gravity collapses a cloud of interstellar gas
  2. 2. A rotating disk forms
  3. 3. Dust grains stick together by static electricity
  4. 4. Small bodies collide to form larger bodies
  5. 5. Primary atmospheres form
  6. 6. A stellar wind ‘turns on’ and sweeps away gas and dust
  7. 7. Primary atmospheres are lost
  8. 8. Secondary atmospheres form

Therefore, the following events are arranged in order of the formation of a planetary system.
