2.-Read the paragraph below and answer the following questions.
The Solar System is made up of all the planets that orbit our Sun. In addition to
planets, the Solar System also consists of moons, comets, asteroids, minor
planets, and dust and gas.
Everything in the Solar System orbits or revolves around the Sun. The Sun
contains around 98% of all the material in the Solar System. The larger an
object is, the more gravity it has. Because the Sun is so large, its powerful
gravity attracts all the other objects in the Solar System towards it. At the same
time, these objects, which are moving very rapidly, try to fly away from the Sun,
outward into the emptiness of outer space. The result of the planets trying to fly
away, at the same time that the Sun is trying to pull them inward is that they
become trapped half-way in between. Balanced between flying towards the
Sun, and escaping into space, they spend eternity orbiting around their parent
star.
How Did The Solar System form?
This is an important question, and one that is difficult for scientists to
understand. After all, the creation of our Solar System took place billions of
years before there were any people around to witness it. Our own evolution is
tied closely to the evolution of the Solar System. Thus, without understanding
from where the Solar System came from, it is difficult to comprehend how
mankind came to be.
Scientists believe that the Solar System evolved from a giant cloud of dust and
gas. They believe that this dust and gas began to collapse under the weight of
its own gravity. As it did so, the matter contained within this could begin moving
in a giant circle, much like the water in a drain moves around the center of the
drain in a circle.
The Solar System Has Over 100 Worlds
It is true that there are only eight planets. However, the Solar System is made
up of over 100 worlds that are every bit as fascinating. Some of these minor
planets, and moons are actually larger than the planet Mercury!
Others, such as Io, have active volcanoes. Europa has a liquid water ocean,
while Titan has lakes, rivers, and oceans of liquid Methane.
Questions:
1.- What is the solar system?
2.- What percentage of material does the sun contain?
3.-What did scientists believed?
4.-How many worlds is the solar system made of?
