What else can I help you with?
In what way are convection currents responsible for large wind patterns?
Poop and Cheeseburgars!~Made by Taylor!
Do convection currents cause earths heat?
No. Convection currents are the circular motion of earth's wind. If the earth did not rotate, convection currents would not be. Does that make sense?
What is the results of convection currents in the atmosphere?
Wind.
How convection currents produce wind?
Yes they do.
Are wind and ocean currents formed by convection?
Yes, insolation, which is the amount of energy a surface receives from the sun in kilowatts, at is less at the poles than the equator. This causes convection and in turn causes wind and ocean currents, but other influences, such as Earth's rotation and topography are also responsible.
Where can convection currents be found in real-world examples, such as in the atmosphere, in the ocean, and in the Earth's mantle?
Convection currents can be found in real-world examples such as in the atmosphere, where they drive weather patterns and wind movements. In the ocean, convection currents play a role in the circulation of water and nutrient distribution. In the Earth's mantle, convection currents are responsible for the movement of tectonic plates and the formation of volcanic activity.
Is it true that wind are examples of convection currents?
Yes, wind is a result of convection currents. The Sun heats up the Earth's surface unevenly, causing air to heat up and rise in some areas and cool and sink in others. This movement of air creates wind as it tries to equalize temperature and pressure differences.
What is responsible for creating clouds and air currents.?
Convection
How many convection currents are there?
There are multiple convection currents within the Earth's mantle. These currents are responsible for the movement of tectonic plates, which leads to processes such as earthquakes and volcanic activity.
Are convection currents responsible for the magnetic field?
Yes, of course...
Are ocean currents convection radiation or conduction?
Ocean currents are primarily driven by a combination of convection and wind patterns. Convection currents are created by the temperature differences in the water, causing warm water to rise and cold water to sink. Wind patterns also influence the direction and strength of ocean currents. Radiation and conduction do not play significant roles in the formation of ocean currents.
What type of current is caused by wind on the oceans surface?
Surface ocean currents are caused by winds. As wind blows across the surface, the wind pulls the water and causes waves.
