What are dark spots that appear on the surface of the sun called?
Dark spots that appear on the surface of the sun are called sunspots. They are areas of reduced temperature caused by interactions with the sun's magnetic field.
What are dark areas on the sun surface called?
Sun spots!
What are dark spots on the suns surface?
The dark spots on the Sun's surface are called Sunspots. These are formed by the sun's magnetic field because these areas have less convection underneath the sun's surface. Convection is how the sun's energy gets to the surface from the core in a circular motion. This reduces the heat in the area and makes the area appear darker than the surrounding sun. However, these spots are still extremely hot and can be many times the size of Earth!
What are dark areas on the surface of the sun?
Dark areas on the surface of the sun are called sunspots. They appear darker because they are cooler areas compared to their surroundings due to strong magnetic activity. Sunspots are temporary phenomena that can last from days to weeks.
What is a violent storm on the sun that has huge clouds of large bright loops or arches gases?
They''re called sun-spots. They appear as dark 'spots' on the surface of the Sun. The bright 'arches' are solar flares resulting from the storm's energy.
Why do sunspots appear dark in color?
Sunspots appear dark in color because they are areas on the Sun's surface that are cooler compared to the surrounding areas. This temperature difference causes them to appear darker when observed against the hotter background of the Sun.
What are the dark areas on the suns surface?
They are called sun spots, dark areas that are cooler than the rest of the surface.
How much black spot are on the sun?
there is about over 10,000,000 sun spots on the sun
Why do sunspot appear in dark?
Because they are cooler than the rest of sun's surface.Even though the spots are cooler,They are still 6000 degrees.The other surface of sun is 10000 degrees.
Visible dark spots on the sun are called?
We call them sunspots, but dark and cool are relative terms. A sunspot is dark only relative to the surrounding solar surface, but still intensely bright compared to your common household light bulb. It's cooler than the surrounding solar material, but still hot enough to vaporize a spaceship and anyone inside it in a fraction of a second.
What color are sun spots?
Sun spots are just cooler regions of the Sun's surface, so they appear darker. A simplistic answer is that they are just a darker hue of the normal colour of the Sun. A more detailed answer is that they are all different, depending on the visual perceptual property and who the observer is - as all observers will see a different value depending on their spectral sensitivity. See the related link of a sun spot, and draw your own conclusions.
What is an explanation of why sunspots appear dark?
The sun spots are the cooler spots. They are darker because there isnt much heat compared to the rest of the sun
