Mostly light from and near the visible spectrum of electromagnetic radiation. The

visivle spectrum includes all of the light that we can see, anything out of this

spectrum we cannot see. We can see in this spectrum because that is mostly the

type of light that the sun produces. However, the sun does produce radiation or

"light" from every part of the spectrum but most of the radiation it produces comes

from the visable spectrum.

==========================

Answer #2 :

Sunlight's composition at ground level, per square meter, with the sun at the zenith,

is about 527 watts of infrared radiation, 445 watts of visible light, and 32 watts of

ultraviolet radiation.

So, if you ignore everything that's absorbed by the atmosphere, and ignore all the

other forms of electromagnetic radiation from the sun, then only considering the

infrared, ultraviolet, and visible, the visible is about 44% of the total by the time

those reach the ground.

Which part of the sun do the solar winds come from?

Solar winds come from the outer layer of the Sun's atmosphere called the corona. This region is extremely hot and contains charged particles that are ejected into space, creating the solar wind.


Why comet 's tail is facing away from the sun?

It is pushed away from the sun by the solar wind.


Why does the solar wind wind from the sun only come from one direction?

The solar wind emanates from the Sun's outer layers, primarily the corona, which is a hot, ionized gas. The solar wind is driven by the Sun's magnetic field and its intense heat, causing charged particles to flow outward. This outflow is predominantly in the form of a continuous stream that radiates outward in all directions; however, the observed solar wind often appears to come from a specific direction due to the Sun's rotation and the structure of its magnetic field, which can create coronal holes that preferentially emit solar wind in certain areas. Thus, while it is produced in multiple directions, the magnetic and rotational dynamics can focus the wind in observable patterns.


What kinds of particles does the sun eject into the solar wind?

The Solar Wind. (and photons if you mean the light that the Sun emits).


Why might the solar wind have a stronger effect on inner planets than on outer planets in the solar system?

The solar wind has a stronger effect on inner planets because they are closer to the Sun and therefore experience higher solar wind densities and stronger solar wind speeds. Outer planets are farther away from the Sun and have weaker solar wind interactions due to the decreased solar wind density and speed at their distance from the Sun.

Where does much of solar winds come from?

Much of solar wind comes from the Sun's corona, which is the outermost layer of the Sun's atmosphere. The solar wind is a stream of charged particles, mainly protons and electrons, that are constantly ejected from the Sun and travel through space at high speeds.


What part of the sun generates the solar wind?

The corona of the sun generates the solar wind. It is the outermost layer of the sun's atmosphere, where temperatures are extremely high, causing particles to escape and form the solar wind that travels through the solar system.


From where does most of the solar wind flow?

Most of the solar wind flows from the Sun's corona, which is the outermost layer of the Sun's atmosphere. The corona's high temperatures and continuous expansion contribute to the solar wind's emission into space.


From which layer of the Sun does the solar wind originate?

The solar wind originates from the outermost layer of the Sun called the corona, which is the Sun's tenuous outer atmosphere. The corona is made up of highly ionized gas that is so hot it can escape the Sun's gravitational pull and flow outwards into space, creating the solar wind.


How are prominences solar flares corona solar wind are related to the sun?

sun prominences are like loops that come out of the sun if you look it up you'll probly find pictures. solar flares are like prominences but they dont make a loop they just go straight out. the corona is the outer most layer of the sun.


What is the source of solar wind?

Solar flares from the sun produce bursts of solar wind, but solar wind is constantly streaming out from the sun.


A stream of electrically charged particles from the sun is called?

It is solar wind


What is a stream of electrically charged particles from the sun called?

The general dissipation of charged particles from the sun is called the Solar Wind. Occasionally the sun also emits vast quantities of matter from bursts known as "Coronal Mass Ejections". (The Corona is the Sun's atmosphere.)
