Solar flares are sudden releases of energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation, while solar prominences are large, bright features that extend outwards from the Sun's surface. Solar flares are associated with intense bursts of X-rays and UV radiation, whereas solar prominences are cooler, denser structures that can last for weeks or even months.

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.


Describe the similarities between a solar flare and a solar prominence?

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.


What is the temperature of a solar flare?

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


Is a solar flare the same thing as a sun flare?

Yes, a solar flare and a sun flare are the same thing. They refer to sudden releases of energy in the sun's atmosphere that can cause disturbances on Earth.

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.


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.


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:)
