Who proposed Nebular hypothesis?
A
Sir James Hopwood Jeans and Harold Jeffreys
B
Thomas Chowder Chamberlin and Forest Ray Moulton
C
Immanuel Kant and Pierre-Simon Laplace
D
Andy Albrecht and Andre Linde
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Kant and Laplace proposed the “nebular hypothesis” of the origin of the solar system, whereby the planets formed from condensation out of matter orbiting the early Sun.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Kant-Laplace nebular hypothesis Kant’s central idea was that the solar system began as a cloud of dispersed particles. He assumed that the mutual gravitational attractions of the particles caused them to start moving and colliding, at which point chemical forces kept them bonded together.

Detailed explanation-3: -These planets were formed farther from the Sun because the temperature away from the Sun was cool enough for gases to condense, forming these less dense planets. The origins of the Nebula Theory can be credited to Emmanuel Swedenborg, Immanuel Kant, and Pierre – Simon Laplace.

Detailed explanation-4: -German Philosopher Immanuel Kant described his theory about the origin of Earth which is known as Nebular hypothesis. He thought that gas, particle are connected with each other. They have gravity attraction. By Laplace view he thought planets formed before the Sun.
