Which planet has a surface feature called corona?
In planetary terms, a corona is an oval-shaped feature upon a planet's surface."Corona" means "crown" in Ancient Greek.A corona is found on the surface of planet Venus.Additionally:A corona is also found on Miranda, one of the moons of UranusThe "corona" is also used to describe the plasma atmosphere of the sun (you should know the sun is a star, not a planet)
What is the approximate temperature of the corona?
The corona is the region of the sun from the surface to about 1 million kilometers into space. Temperatures in the corona can reach as high as two million degree Fahrenheit.
What is the temperature of the sun's corona?
The corona is the region of the sun from the surface to about 1 million kilometers into space. Temperatures in the corona can reach as high as two million degree Fahrenheit.
What part of the sun is seen during a solar eclipse?
The corona.
How hot is the corona?
The sun's corona is the hottest part of the sun apart from the core. It is about 2,000,000° at a distance of half a million miles from the surface.
What is the faint outer atmosphere of the sun?
The faint outer atmosphere of the sun is called the corona. It is visible during a total solar eclipse as a halo of light around the sun. The corona is much hotter than the surface of the sun and extends millions of kilometers into space.
What is the approximate temperature of the sun's corona?
The temperature of the sun's corona is around 1 to 3 million degrees Celsius.
How much hotter is the sun's corona than its surface?
It's a lot hotter
What is hot gases shooting into space along the corona?
the visible surface of the sun
If a scientist is studying the suns corona what will he find?
One interesting thing that has been found about the corona is that it's much hotter than the Sun's surface - while the Sun's surface has a temperature of about 6000 K, the corona has a temperature has a temperature around a million K. This obviously can't be caused by regular heat transfer; scientists are still researching exactly how the energy gets from the Sun to the corona.
Which of the suns layers is only visible during eclipses?
The corona is the sun's outermost layer, which is only visible during a total solar eclipse when the moon covers the sun's surface. The corona is much dimmer than the sun's surface, making it visible only when the sun's bright photosphere is blocked.
Temperature of the corona?
The temperature of the sun's corona reaches at least one million degrees and possibly more. This is strange because the surface of the sun has temperatures of five thousand degrees. The corona is much farther away and logically should be cooler.
