Why does antifreeze backup into the overflow tank?
Heat from the engine causes liquid to expand. It used to overflow onto the ground if it caused enough pressure to open the radiator cap. The overflow tanks were installed to automatically catch and return the coolant to the cooling system.
What is reservoir tank?
In a Car: A tank to hold "overflow". When fluids heat up, they expand, and like radiator fluid, they need a place to go until they cool. Some cars keep these under some pressure, and if there is a leak, then an engine light will now come on. In the older cars, a leak in this tank would be a minor problem because you'd loose fluid when it leaked out of the overflow.

How do you get convention in a lava lamp?
The heat of the lamp causes the fluids to heat and expand. The two materials are of different thermal properties and are immiscible.The word you seek is convection.
What causes heat to come from a car's tires?
FRICTION
1998 Ford Ranger heater core?
Can a bad heatercore cause antifreeze to come out overflow jug. And heat go off and on.
What effect does the heat that causes convection in the earth come from?
Friction
Why does transfer of heat not place by conduction in fluids?
Wrong, transfer of heat by conduction does take place in fluids.
Why does transfer of heat not take place in fluids?
Wrong, transfer of heat does take place in fluids. In fact it can take place more efficiently in fluids than in solids because convection is possible in fluids.
What cause heat exhaustion?
Prolonged exposure to high humid temperatures, loss of fluids/ dehydration without being replenished causes the body to go into shock.
What causes metamorphic rocks to form?
Pressure, Heat, Chemically active fluids (water and CO2 in rocks), Time(obviously), and the parent rock composition.
What things transfer heat by convection?
Fluids.
