Identify the FALSE statement. You could summarize our Solar System's development by saying:

it formed solely from atoms generated by the big bang. its formation began as gravity pulled material into a bulbous disc. the central ball of the bulbous disc developed into the Sun. outlying material of the disc condensed into planetesimals. planetesimals coalesced to form the planets.

Each y-direction force on frame ABCDEF below acts at the center of the bar segment to which it is applied. Support B is restrained against translation in the y and z directions only, and support C is restrained in the z direc- tion only. Support D is a pin support. Equilibrium of the frame requires that reaction force Cz is (in newtons):

(A) 80.8 N
(B) 67.7 N
(C) 14.8 N
(D) 92.2 N
