What is the primary mechanism driving solar winds?
- A Gravitational pull
- B Nuclear fusion
- C MHD processes
- D Ionization of gases
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The solar wind is a stream of charged particles, mainly electrons and protons, ejected from the Sun's outer atmosphere, known as the corona. It is primarily driven by the energy released from nuclear fusion reactions in the Sun's core, which generate high temperatures and pressure, propelling plasma outwards into space.
