Let's see your options:

a) prominences are gas eruptions that can form an arch and do not look dark, therefore this statement is false;
<span>b) solar flares</span> are spots hotter than the surrounding, therefore they are brighter than the rest, and they form where prominences start or end on the surface, therefore this statement is true;
c) the number of sunspots may vary following an 11 years cycle, therefore this statement is false;
d) sunspots are colder spots on the surface and have nothing to do with solar winds, therefore this statement is false.

Correct answer choice is:

b) Solar flares are spots hotter than the surrounding, therefore they are brighter than the rest, and they form where prominences start or end on the surface.

Solar flares eject coronal mass, they eject electrons, protons, and ions from the Sun. They<span> produce high energy particles and radiation that are dangerous to living organisms. </span>The earth encompasses a natural protection against these charged particles. Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere protect us from these particles.

2. A 20 cm object is placed 10cm in front of a convex lens of focal length 5cm. Calculate
adoni [48]

Answer:

<u> </u><u>»</u><u> </u><u>Image</u><u> </u><u>distance</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

{ \tt{ \frac{1}{v}  +  \frac{1}{u} =  \frac{1}{f}  }} \\

  • v is image distance
  • u is object distance, u is 10 cm
  • f is focal length, f is 5 cm

{ \tt{ \frac{1}{v} +  \frac{1}{10} =  \frac{1}{5}   }} \\  \\  { \tt{ \frac{1}{v}  =  \frac{1}{10} }} \\  \\ { \tt{v = 10}} \\  \\ { \underline{ \underline{ \pmb{ \red{ \: image \: distance \: is \: 10 \: cm \:  \: }}}}}

<u> </u><u>»</u><u> </u><u>Magnification</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

• Let's derive this formula from the lens formula:

{ \tt{ \frac{1}{v}  +  \frac{1}{u} =  \frac{1}{f}  }} \\

» Multiply throughout by fv

{ \tt{fv( \frac{1}{v} +  \frac{1}{u} ) = fv( \frac{1}{f}  )}} \\   \\ { \tt{ \frac{fv}{v}  +  \frac{fv}{u}  =  \frac{fv}{f} }} \\  \\  { \tt{f + f( \frac{v}{u} ) = v}}

• But we know that, v/u is M

{ \tt{f + fM = v}} \\  { \tt{f(1 +M) = v }} \\ { \tt{1 +M =  \frac{v}{f}  }} \\  \\ { \boxed{ \mathfrak{formular :  } \: { \tt{ M =  \frac{v}{f}  - 1 }}}}

  • v is image distance, v is 10 cm
  • f is focal length, f is 5 cm
  • M is magnification.

{ \tt{M =  \frac{10}{5} - 1 }} \\  \\ { \tt{M = 5 - 1}} \\  \\ { \underline{ \underline{ \pmb{ \red{ \: magnification \: is \: 4}}}}}

<u> </u><u>»</u><u> </u><u>Nature</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>Image</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

  • Image is magnified
  • Image is erect or upright
  • Image is inverted
  • Image distance is identical to object distance.

Why is it important to understand the concept of density ?
N76 [4]
Density applies to many if not all aspects of life.  With density you can explain why ice floats.   You can explain why oxygen is on the earth, and not floating around in space( or being replaced by another gas).  You can also explain why heat rises while cold air sinks.

2. What process does water redeposit into a lake in the form of rain?
weqwewe [10]

The process that water redeposit into a lake in the form of rain is precipitation.

<h3>What is water runoffs?</h3>

Water runoff occurs when there is more water than land can absorb.

The water flows across the surface of the land and into nearby creeks, streams, or lakes.

Runoff can come from both natural processes and human activity.

When rain falls to the earth from clouds and runs downhill into rivers and lakes.

During evaporation, the water turns from liquid into gas, and moves from oceans and lakes into the atmosphere where it forms clouds.

<h3>What is precipitation?</h3>

Precipitation is any liquid (rain) or frozen water that forms in the atmosphere and falls back to the Earth, for example it could fall on land or into lakes and rivers.

Thus,  the process that water redeposit into a lake in the form of rain is precipitation.
