​The Origin of the Solar System

  • ​Encounter Hypothesis

  • ​Nebular Hypothesis

  • ​Protoplanet Hypothesis

Multiple Choice

Question image

This states that the sun encountered a rogue star. Due to gravitational interaction, hot gases removed from both of them. The material formed outer and inner planets.

Multiple Choice

Question image

This hypothesis suggests that a cloud of gas and dust rotated slowly. It is the present working model formation of the Solar System.

Nebular Hypothesis

3

Protoplanet hypothesis

9

Multiple Choice

Question image

According to this hypothesis, the Solar system was formed from a slowly-rotating cloud of gas that collapsed and flattened because of the gravitational forces. The collision between particles formed the planets.
