The local newspaper has published the passage below. last week, scientists released incredible images of aurora australis as seen from the hubble telescope. the hubble telescope was placed in orbit in 1990 by the space shuttle and has since delivered the sharpest images we have of our planet, our galaxy, and the universe. the images delivered last week show the beautiful display of lights all over the equator. these lights are the result of the solar activity known as solar wind. traces of solar wind reach well beyond earth and have been detected as far as saturn. which statement in the news passage above is inaccurate? the aurora australis cannot be seen from space. the hubble telescope does not orbit our planet. the aurora australis do not occur over the equator. solar winds do not reach well beyond our planet.

An aurora is a luminescent phenomenon that covers the sky and usually occurs in areas close to Earth's poles.  Their names depend on its geographic position, aurora borealis if the phenomenon occurs in the north pole and aurora australis if the phenomenon occurs in the south pole.

This is because currently Earth's magnetic poles are near the Earth's geographic poles.

In addition, this is due to the fact that the particles coming from solar winds (called coronal mass ejections, which contain protons and electrons fluxes with a large electric charge) collide with the magnetic field that surrounds the Earth (the magnetosphere) and slip to both poles, because in those areas the magnetic field is weakest.

These particles collide with the oxygen and nitrogen atoms and molecules in the atmosphere and cause the luminescent reaction. Depending on the element that intervenes in the collision, the energy released can be of one or another color.

However, sometimes may occur that the flow of energy from the Sun is strong enough to undertake a trip through the atmosphere that takes to latitudes closer to the Earth's equator. Although this is not normal with the current position of the magnetic poles and until now no auroas have been seen in terrestrial Ecuador, only in nearby regions.

diagram is missing, but i will try to explain your doubt.

answer:

amplitude is the maximum displacement or distance moved on a point of a vibrating body or wave measured from its equilibrium position.it is equal to half the length of vibration path.
