Both solar flares and solar prominences are magnetic disturbances that occur on the Sun's surface. They both involve the release of a large amount of energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. Solar flares and prominences are often associated with sunspots and can have significant impacts on space weather.

Describe the difference between a solar flare and a solar prominence which affects us and how?

The difference between a solar flare and a solar prominence is that a solar flare emits charged partials, which travel to the Earth. Solar prominence are large sheets that burst out from the Sun that last for days or even weeks and can grow up to 400000km high. A solar flare affects us by emitting charged partials to the Earth. When the partials hit the Earth the Earth's magnetic field forces them to the North and South poles. As this happens it produces an electrical effect in the Earth's atmosphere that interferes with transmission of radio waves. This is why many communities in the far North lose radio communication for many days at a time.It took my a very long time to figure this out. if you are doing this for a science isu in grade 9 them it is on page 453 on the bottom left of the sun diagram.


What is the temperature of a solar flare?

The temperature of a solar flare varies between 10 and 20 million degrees Kelvin.


Why wouldn't you take a flare gun into space?

You might think a flare would not burn in a vacuum, however, they will. The oxygen for the flare to burn is already chemically in the flare. And flare guns HAVE gone into space- as emergency equipment.


What are the differnece between a prominence and a solar flare?

Prominences are large, bright features extending outward from the sun's surface into the corona, often appearing as loops or arcs, and are relatively stable. Solar flares, on the other hand, are sudden releases of energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation, often accompanied by the ejection of material into space. Flares are short-lived and can cause disruptions in space weather.

Is a solar flare stronger than a solar prominence?

Yes but it's hard to say


How does a prominence differ from a solar flare?

Prominence are huge loops of gas that connect different parts of sunspot regions. A solar flare is an explosion caused by hydrogen getting really hot, the gas shoots out into space causing a solar flare.


What is the sun's prominience?

A prominence is when a solar flare ejects matter from the suns surface as a stream of incandescent gas.

What are gases near a sunspot that suddenly shooting gas outward at high speeds?

Solar flares. Don't get it mixed up with prominence, because prominence is a huge,arching column of gas. And you defined what a solar flare is above:)

An eruption on the suns surface is a solar what?

An eruption on the sun's surface is a solar flare, which is a sudden and intense release of energy and radiation. Solar flares can create disturbances in Earth's magnetic field and affect communication systems and power grids.
