The difference between a solar flare and a solar prominence is that a solar flare emits charged partials, which travel to the Earth. Solar prominence are large sheets that burst out from the Sun that last for days or even weeks and can grow up to 400000km high. A solar flare affects us by emitting charged partials to the Earth. When the partials hit the Earth the Earth's magnetic field forces them to the North and South poles. As this happens it produces an electrical effect in the Earth's atmosphere that interferes with transmission of radio waves. This is why many communities in the far North lose radio communication for many days at a time.
It took my a very long time to figure this out. if you are doing this for a science isu in grade 9 them it is on page 453 on the bottom left of the sun diagram.
