This online article delves into our the sun and planets were formed.

These four short online lessons will cover the following:

• The planets of the solar system

• Gravity in the solar system
• Inner vs outer planets

This online resource explores the following topics:

• Latitude and parallels
• Longitude and meridians
• Climate and latitude
• Time zones

In this chapter, you will learn why it is important to identify a reference frame in order to clearly describe motion. For now, the motion you describe will be one-dimensional. Within this context, you will learn the difference between distance and displacement as well as the difference between speed and velocity. Then you will look at some graphing and problem-solving techniques.

Other objects in the solar system are discussed in this online textbook viz. asteroids, meteorites, comets and dwarf planets.
