Solar Flares

 Good afternoon all,......... I am a new blogger on this blog and my name is Vaishnavi

Today I am going to tell you about a really interesting topic that is solar flares.

  • So the first question that comes to our mind is, What are solar flares?
Solar flares are sudden eruptions on the surface of the sun. Typically occurring during the peak of the sunspot cycle, these violent releases of energy eject billions of tons of charged particles at more than 600 miles per second into space, as well as spewing out radiations ranging from radio waves to x-rays.




A flare usually lasts only for a few minutes. At that time, its temperature can reach several million kelvins. The charged particles of a solar flare sometimes extend to Earth's magnetic field, which can cause auroras and geomagnetic storms, disrupt satellite communications, and endanger astronauts in space.


Unusually large solar flares can have broader consequences on Earth. For example, on October 28, 2003, a huge solar flare shot highly charged energetic particles right at our planet. Airplanes were diverted from the Poles because passengers would have been exposed to increased radiation. A power blackout occurred in Sweden and some satellites were damaged. It is the third most powerful solar flare ever observed in X-ray wavelengths erupted from sunspot 486 on October 28, 2003, at approx 6 a.m. ( Eastern Standard Time).

So, this was all for today will meet you another day another time till then stay home stay safe.

Between 0-6 years of age, the number of girls in the ration of 1000 boys is continuously declining from the year 1961. The number of girls is the year 1991 was 945 and in 2001 it decreased to 927 and in 2011 it was 918 . People think daughters as the others wealth   Also at same time  Safety of Women in India  has become a major issue in India now.

This is, unfortunately, the sad reality of our country that lives in constant fear. Women in India have been given equal rights as men ;...

  Hi everyone.. I am Prapti and today i will be telling you about the most attractive topic that is social networking. WHAT IS SOCIAL NETWORK ? Social network is a social structure made up of social actors (individuals or organisations ), sets of dyadic ties and other social interaction between those characters. The social network perspective provides a set of methods for analyzing the structure of whole social entities as well as a variety of theories explaining the patterns observed in these structures. The study of these structures uses  social network analysis  to identify local and global patterns, locate influential entities, and examine network dynamics. Some popular social networking sites are facebook , whatsapp , instagram , twitter. HISTORY  In the late 1890s, both  Émile Durkheim  and  Ferdinand Tönnies  foreshadowed the idea of social networks in their theories and research of  social groups . Tönnies argued that social groups ca...
