Question
1.5B - Place the events in the formation of our solar system in the correct order from first (1- longest time ago) to last (6- most recent). (Note: 1 is the first event that happened the LONGEST time ago. Type ONLY numbers 1, 2, 3, 4,5, 6-into the blanks) Clumps eventually coalesced to form planets, with rocky planets forming closer to the sun, and gaseous planets forming further away The result of the collapse of the dust cloud was a spinning disc of gas and dust - Material that was not in the center of the disk (and was not capable of fusion) started to clump together and orbit the dense new sun When enough material collected at the center of the disk, nuclear fusion began and Hydrögen began fusing into Helium At some point, the cloud collapsed in upon itself, possible due toExplanation / Answer
The order is 6,3,5,4,2,1
1.It is believed by the scientists that a giant cloud of dust and gas existed in our region of glalaxy.
2.The cloud,due to a disturbance(waves) produced by the explosion of a star(supernova) nearby,collapsed in upon itself.
3.The collapse resulted in a spinning disk made of gas and dust,which was hotter in the inside and cooler at the outside.
4.Due to the high temperatures(which reached upto 10 million kelvin) resulted in violent collisions among the particles ,because of which hydrogen started fusing into helium(fusion reaction)and resulted in the formation of sun at the center.
5.Since the materials at the edges were at a cooler temperature they were not capable of fusion,they formed clumps of mass and rotated around the sun.
6.These clumps which were nearer to the center coalesced to form rocky planets ,since they could withstand high temperatures .Since the edges were cooler the clumps near the edges coalesced to form gaseaous planets.
