a student explains the nebular theory of formation of the solar system as follows.
"the solar system was formed from a slowly rotating cloud called nebula containing extremely cold gases. when these gases were heated up, the nebula contracted and became a flattened disk. as the nebula became smaller, it rotated more rapidly and became flattened at the poles. gravitational force caused rings of gases to be left behind when the nebula contracted. at the center of the nebula, the gases combined to form the sun and the planets formed in the outer flattened portion of the disk."
what is the flaw in the student's explanation? (1 point)
a gravitational forces did not the nebula to contract
b the nebula consisted of hot gases which contracted on being cooled
c the speed of rotation of the nebula decreased when it became smaller
d planets were formed in the central core of the nebula instead of outer portion of disk

Place several e-field sensors at a few points on different equipotential lines, and look at the relationship between the electric field and the equipotential lines. which statement is true? 1-at any point, the electric field is perpendicular to the equipotential line at that point, and it is directed toward lines of higher voltages. 2-at any point, the electric field is perpendicular to the equipotential line at that point, and it is directed toward lines of lower voltages. 3-at any point, the electric field is parallel to the equipotential line at that point.

People with normal vision cannot focus their eyes underwater if they aren't wearing a face mask or goggles and there is water in contact with their eyes. in a simplified model of the human eye, the aqueous and vitreous humors and the lens all have a refractive index of 1.40, and all the refraction occurs at the cornea, whose vertex is 2.60 cm from the retina.with the simplified model of the eye, what corrective lens (specified by focal length as measured in air) would be needed to enable a person underwater to focus an infinitely distant object? (be careful-the focal length of a lens underwater is not the same as in air! assume that the corrective lens has a refractive index of 1.62 and that the lens is used in eyeglasses, not goggles, so there is water on both sides of the lens. assume that the eyeglasses are 2.05cm in front of the eye.)
