One of the most important points of the solar nebular theory is that the center of a forming solar system is much hotter than the edges. one likely result is that a) inner planets have more moons than outer planets have. b) inner planets orbit at a lower rate than outer planets do. c) inner planets are more rocky, and outer planets are more gaseous. d) inner planets are less dense, and outer planets are much more dense.

According to the nebular theory, what is the explanation as to why the terrestrial planets formed in the inner solar system and the jovian planets formed in the outer solar system? a. the denser terrestrial planets sank inward towards the sun through the nebular cloud, but the less dense jovian planets did not sink through the nebular cloud. b. all of the planets formed at a large distance from the sun but the dense terrestrial planets experienced a larger pull of the sun's gravity and were drawn into orbits that are closer to the sun then the jovian planets. c. ices condensed in the outer solar system and some icy planetesimals grew large enough to attract gas from the nebula, but only metals and rock condensed in the inner solar system. d. all of the planets were initially about the same size but the planets closer to the sun have had much of their material evaporated because they are warmer than the outer planets.

Consider the first major feature (orderly motions). which of the following correctly describe patterns of motion in our solar system? select all that apply. (a) the sun and most of the planets rotate in the same direction that the planets orbit. (b)major moons generally have polar orbits, meaning orbits that take them over the north and south poles of the planet they orbit. (c) planets have nearly circular orbits. (d)the outer planets are so large that they nearly collide with each other on each orbit. (e)all the planets orbit the sun in nearly the same plane. (f) inner planets orbit the sun in the opposite direction from the outer planets

Comparing objects in a related group can reveal patterns among them. these patterns in turn can us learn more about those objects than we could by studying each individually. with this goal in mind, watch this animation of the planets in the solar system and select all of the following choices that describe the patterns that you've observed. as you do so, think about the implications of how the solar system may have formed. choose one or more: a. the orbits of the outer planets (those most distant from the sun) are spaced farther apart from one another than the orbits of the inner planets. b. planets orbit the sun in random directions. c. all planets orbit the sun in the same direction. d. the size of all planets increases with distance from the sun. e. the orbits of the planets are evenly distributed in distance from the sun. f. all planets orbit the sun in a roughly flat plane. g. the closest planets to the sun are much smaller than the planets that are farther away. h. all planets orbit the sun in a spherical distribution.
