Why Is The Solar System Flat? » Science ABC

Par un écrivain mystérieux

Description

The flatness of our solar system can be ascribed to the law of conservation of total angular momentum. Due to this, whenever particles collide, they may move in any direction, but all the up and down motion cancels out, always following the rule that the total spin in that plane must be constant.
Science gets a bad rep for being boring, difficult and for very smart people (see: nerds). But that doesn't have to be the case. At ScienceABC we believe that if science is communicated simply and made relatable and fun, it can be for everyone. As Micheal Jackson said best, as simple as ABC. So far, we've tackled complex and vast topics like Einstein's Time Dilation, the Immune System, Evolution, Quantum Entanglement, while also asking the questions that nag us at night like Is the science in the movies accurate?, Is it possible to have insects the size of humans?, and Why can I hear a thundering sound in my ear?. So, join us for some simple science with a whole lot of fun thrown in! Subscribe to us for your regular dose of science and don't forget to share our work if you liked it.
