Chapter 7, Problem 12QQ
Choose the best answer to each of the following. Explain your reasoning.
Based on computer models, when is planetary migration most likely to occur in a planetary system? (a) early in its history, when there is still a gaseous disk around the star (b) shortly after a stellar wind clears the gaseous disk away (c) late in its history, when asteroids and Cornets occasionally collide with planets
