Why did the solar nebula heat up as it collapsed?
A) Nuclear fusion occurring in the core of the protosun produced energy that heated the nebula.
B) As the cloud shrank, its gravitational potential energy was converted to kinetic energy and then into thermal energy.
C) Radiation from other nearby stars that had formed earlier heated the nebula.
D) The shock wave from a nearby supernova heated the gas.
E) Collisions among planetesimals generated friction and heat.
