Question

Material from which of the following solar occurrences can reach Earth, causing radio blackouts?

a. Flare
b. Solar wind
c. Coronal mass ejection
d. Prominence

Answer 1

Answer;

Solar FLARE

Step-by-step explanation;

• Material from a solar FLARE occurrence can reach earth causing radio blackouts.
• A solar flare are large eruptions of electromagnetic radiation from the Sun lasting from minutes to hours. It occurs when magnetic energy that has built up in the solar atmosphere is suddenly released.
• Solar flares normally occurs in active regions on the sun marked by the presence of strong magnetic fields.

• Solar flare intensities cover a large range and are classified in terms of peak emission in the 0.1 - 0.8 nm spectral band.

Answer 2

Material from (A.) Flare can reach the Earth causing radio blackouts. Solar flares are sudden, rapid and intense variation in brightness that is seen on the sun. It occurs when magnetic energy that has built up in the solar atmosphere, then suddenly released.
