The Solar System

Answer:
To a first-order approximation the Earth is round. This
is due to gravity. Gravity pulls with equal strength in all
directions; therefore any variations from a spherical
shape will lead to gravitational forces that
bring the shape back into that of a sphere.

This is without considering the rotation of the earth,
however. The rotation of the earth adds centrifugal
effects, which cause the earth to bulge slightly at
its equator and flatten slightly at its poles.
(This is like twirling a rock on the end of a string
and then letting go--the rock flies away from the
twirler.) Because of these centrifugal effects, the
distance from the center of the earth to the surface
of the earth is about 0.33% shorter at the poles
compared to the equator.

Yes because that is how many have been recorded so far...but there most likely are more moons orbiting Jupiter...you never know..but like i said there have been 63 satellites orbiting Jupiter.

1) Saves Money on your huge electricity bills.

2) It also helps you to save environments.

3) Reduces Carbon Foot Prints.

There are 4 planets that are considered the "Gas Giants." Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Uranus and Neptune are also called the "Ice Giants." All of the planets have gases in their composition, but the Gas Giants have the highest amounts.

Planets vary widely in temperature from extremely hot to extremely cold. In our solar system the hottest planet is Venus, with surface temperatures of 850 degrees Fahrenheit while the coldest is Uranus at -371 degrees Fahrenheit.

as these days Pluto is no longer considered a planet, apparently.

Nothing.

You may be referring to the planet Pluto, which was DISCOVERED in 1930, but it had in all probability been part of the solar system since the Sun ignited 4.5 billion years ago.

The matter that makes up the solar system, including the Sun, planets, and other celestial bodies, was originally present in the form of a giant molecular cloud or interstellar cloud within our Milky Way galaxy. These clouds are composed primarily of gas and dust, mainly hydrogen and helium, along with trace amounts of heavier elements.

These molecular clouds are immense in size and are held together by their own gravity. Over time, certain regions within these clouds can become denser and more concentrated due to various factors, such as shockwaves from nearby supernovae or the gravitational influence of other nearby massive objects.

When a region of a molecular cloud becomes sufficiently dense and gravitationally unstable, it can collapse under its own gravity. As this collapse occurs, the material within the cloud starts to clump together, forming knots of gas and dust. Within these knots, further gravitational collapse can lead to the formation of protostars and, eventually, entire star systems like our solar system.

In the case of the solar system, the matter within the collapsing cloud collected at the center to form the protostar that would become the Sun. The surrounding material flattened into a rotating disk, out of which planets, moons, asteroids, and comets gradually formed through a process known as accretion. The planets and other objects in the solar system, including Earth, are essentially made up of the same material that was once part of the molecular cloud.

In summary, the matter in the solar system was originally part of a giant molecular cloud within our galaxy before it collapsed under its own gravity to form the various celestial bodies we observe today.

i believe that the answer to that aught to be either comet or asteroid

The sun has the majority of the mass in the solar system. Gravitational attraction varies directly as the magnitude of the mass. The sun therefore has the greatest gravitational effect in the solar system.

As we only know of our own in any definite terms we cannot say which is the largest. Nor are we ever likely to be able to do so.

Float. The problem is whether you can find a bathtub big enough for it :D

False!!!!

The ancients of Greece and Rome and earlier thought the Earth (Terrestium) was the centre of the universe.

However, a Polish astronomer named Nicolaus Copernicus, showed that the Sun was the centre of the known system of the day.

He published in 1543, his work on the Heliocentric system, ; 'De revolutionibus orbium coelestium' ( On the Revolution of Heavenly Spheres.). It deduced : -

#1 The Earth is one of several planets revolving around a stationary sun in a determined order.

#2 The Earth has three motions: daily rotation, annual revolution, and annual tilting of its axis.

#3 Retrograde motion of the planets is explained by the Earth's motion.

#4 The distance from the Earth to the Sun is small compared to the distance from the Sun to the stars.

First . . . Earth

Tied for second . . . Venus, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn

Then, in order . . .

Uranus

Neptune

Pluto

. . . other dwarves

Extra-solar planets

Heliocentrism is the astronomical model in which the earth and planets revolve around the Sun in the center of the Solar System. Heliocentric is the adjective describing this system.

1) The collapse is not bound to be perfectly symmetrical. Some pieces of matter will randomly move in one direction, or in another. The net result is that there is some rotation.2) Roughly speaking, anything that rotates will continue rotating.

Temperature is an important factor. Many of the following may also contribute:* The presence of enough water.

* The ABSENCE of free oxygen in the early atmosphere - though this may actually be quite common, since oxygen tends to bind to other elements.

* Earth's age - it's possible that life takes a long time to develop.

* Earth's magnetic field may help protect us from dangerous radiations.

You can find quite a lot more such conditions, if you search for "fine-tuning".

IMPORTANT NOTE: Many will say that such "fine-tuning" proves that life was designed by a creator; actually it doesn't, since there are billions of billions of planets to "chose" from. In that case, it might not be so surprising that A FEW of those planets did develop life.

About 99.8%. An cosmologist's joke has an intragalactic survey report reading, "Primary (the Sun), a major planet (Jupiter), some debris."
