Question

Dr. Tate and Dr. Ramirez are observing the effects of a type of solar activity that has reached the planet Jupiter. What solar activity are they observing?

solar flares
sunspots
prominences
solar winds

Answer 1

Dr. Tate and Dr. Ramirez are likely observing **solar winds**. Solar winds are streams of charged particles released from the Sun, and they can have significant effects on planets, including Jupiter, which has a strong magnetic field that interacts with these particles. Solar flares, sunspots, and prominences are also solar activities, but the direct impact on Jupiter is primarily observed through solar winds.
