Could ancients see solar flares?
They could see solar flares during total solar eclipses. They could probably not see them on the surface of the sun....but they could of seen the Borialis' they could probably not see them on the surface of the sun....but they could of seen the Borialis'
What effect can a very large eruption have on earths climate?
It will cool the earth's surface as radiation from the sun is blocked from entering the atmosphere
What is the primary reason why the surface of Venus today is some 450C hotter than the surface of Earth?
A combination of things. First, Venus is much closer to the sun than earth, so its surface receives more radiant energy from the sun. Add to that the fact that Venus is surrounded by a thick layer of carbon dioxide clouds, which create a runaway greenhouse effect. Bottom line: Venus's surface is about 800 degrees hotter than earth's surface.
The trapping of heat by a planet's atmosphere is called what?
it allows solar radiation to penetrate to the surface!
What is hotter surface of sun or core of earth?
Surface of the sun is hotter.
The Sun's surface seethes and churns with a bubbling pattern Why?
It is because you are seeing hot gas rising and cool gas falling due to the convection that occurs beneath the surface of the sun.
Bubbling motions pass energy through which layer of the sun?
The photosphere is the uppermost layer of the sun. It passes energy through this layer with a bubbling motion, carrying hotter, less dense material to the upper surface as the cooled, denser material sinks deeper into the surface.
What is the name of marks seen on the surface of sun?
Sunspot
What is the name of the surface of the sun which is seen from the earth?
Photosphere
Have you seen the dark spot on the sun what is it called where it is formed what causes it?
Yes I have seen a dark spot on the Sun. It is called a "Sunspot". It is formed on the Sun's surface which is called the "photo-sphere" and is caused by a loop of the Sun's magnetic field poking though the Sun's surface.
What is sometimes seen emerging from the sun's surface?
solar flares
What provides the light seen on the moon?
The sun provides the light seen on the moon, because the sun's rays hits the moon's surface
What are the differences between a surface current and a wave?
A surface current is produced by the sun and the earth's rotation. The sun produces wind causing surface currents. Waves are an effect of a surface current. Hope that this helped!
What part of the sun does storm clouds occur in?
I assume you are talking about sunspots, as they are, in effect, "storms on the sun". They occur on or near the sun's surface.
What is the bright red layer of the sun surface containing hydrogen gas that can seen?
Chromosphere
Through which layer of the sun does bubbling motions pass energy?
The photosphere.
What is process by which energy from the sun is trapped on earth surface and converted into heat?
The greenhouse effect
