Which of the following explains why objects in our solar system are in a spinning motion?
The gravitational pull of the sun pushed objects into a spinning motion.
The massive size of the sun made all other objects in space spin fast.
Gravity pulled in new matter towards an already rotating nebula.
Gravity pushed away heavier matter towards the outside boundary of space objects.

Objects in our solar system are in a spinning motion because THE GRAVITATIONAL PULL OF THE SUN PUSHED OBJECTS INTO A SPINNING MOTION.
The reason why the planets orbit around the sun is because the gravity of the sun keeps them in their circular paths. The gravity is a fundamental part of the universe structure. The planets revolving around the sun traveled in a circular path because they have velocities that are perpendicular to the velocity of the sun.
