Why do solar flares occur?

Answer 1

Solar flares are bright, yet hard to observe in the light of sun.

Most certainly, what you wanted to know why do sunspotsappear black. This is because they are slighly colder than rest of the photosphere and by contrast look darker.

Answer 2

the sun has a tremendously strong magnetic field and these magnetic fields can get tangled and wound around each other, you can think of it like twisting and pulling on a rubber band, eventually the rubber band snaps; when the sun's magnetic fields "snap", material from the sun's outer surface is projected out into space in a sort of half moon shape we call a solar flare; it is basically the release of a huge amount of pent-up energy all at once, in fact, a single solar flare can release as much energy as the ENTIRE sun releases in one second

Answer 3

Solar flares occur due to the sudden release of magnetic energy in the Sun's atmosphere. They are caused by the twisting and snapping of magnetic field lines, which accelerates charged particles and heat in the solar atmosphere. This energy release leads to bright bursts of light and the ejection of particles into space.

Answer 4

Solar collectors are black as black absorbs the most heat, it does not reflect light/heat like other colours but absorbs it.
