Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

The large-impact hypothesis proposes that the Moon formed when a very large planetesimal smashed into the proto-Earth. Such a collision would have ejected debris into space, and model calculations indicate that some of the debris would have settled into a disk in orbit around Earth. The material in the disk would then have quickly collected to form the Moon

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
