which of these are associated with the solar wind? check all that apply. produces tides disrupts communication systems composed of charged particles travels at about 400 km/s explains changes in the weather
The solar - wind is a stream of charged particles (mostly electrons and protons) released from the Sun's corona. It can travel at speeds around 400 km/s. When it interacts with Earth's magnetic field, it can cause geomagnetic storms which disrupt communication systems. Tides are mainly caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun, not the solar - wind. And the solar - wind does not directly explain changes in Earth's weather.
