. So over time through collisions and crashes the cloud loses its loft and flattens into a spinning roughly two dimensional disk shape like a solar system or spiral galaxy. Gravity collapses a cloud of interstellar gas 2. Our solar system began forming within a concentration of interstellar dust and hydrogen gas.

Imagine a pizza maker throwing a spinning slab of dough into the air. Astronomers believe the solar system began 46 billion years ago in a cloud of gas and dust. This is called a nebula and is formed from the remenants of a supernova a star exploding.

This solar nebula consisted of hydrogen helium and microscopic dust grains. Shockwaves from a possible supernova or exploding star caused clouds to compress which resulted in a flat spinning disc of heated material. When it did it formed a solar nebula which is a spinning and swirling disk of material.

A stellar wind turns on and sweeps away gas and dust removing primary atmopsheres from planets 6. This preview shows page 1 - 3 out of 4 pages. Drag and drop to match the pattern 4 items to the corresponding law or.

Eventually with a budding rotating star forming at its core the conservation of angular momentum caused this spinning. However in four spatial dimensions the math works out such that there can be two separate and complementary planes of rotation which is both really really hard for. A cloud of gas the solar nebula collapses inwards under its own weight Cloud heats up spins faster gets flatter disk as a central star forms Gas cools and some materials condense as solid particles that collide stick together and grow larger.

Small bodies collide to form larger bodies 4. Serve Apply everything you have learned to match the patterns of planetary properties in our Solar System to the physical law or process that best explains their existence given that the planets were formed from a spinning cloud of Collapsing gas and dust. A nebula IS a cloud of dust and gas loosely held together by gravity.

Primary atmospheres form 5. There was one a dense cloud of interstellar gas and dust. Shockwaves from a possible supernova or exploding star caused cloud to compress resulting in a flat spinning disc of heated material 4th part of solar system formation Material that was not used to create Sun began to cluster together to form asteroids comets planets and moons.

Nebular Theory of Solar System Formation. 100013 As the spinning cloud of dust and gas started to collapse it also flattened. What happened to the solar nebula.

That cloud collapsed possibly due to the shock of a supernova. See Periodic Tabre v SC FIN Apply everything you have learned to match the patterns of planetary properties in our Solar System to the physical law or process that best explains their existence given that the planets were formed from a spinning cloud of collapsing gas and dust. This is only a simple summary of how the Solar System was formed.

Heated material from the cloud triggered nuclear fusion which formed the sun. A rotating disk forms dust grains stick together by static electricity 3. Our solar system began as a shapeless spinning cloud of gas and dust.

This cloud later goes on to form stars planets and a galaxy. Drag and drop to match the pattern 4 items to the corresponding law or.
