Radiation and conduction have nothing to do with it.
Convection causes the water at the bottom of the pot to heat up, lowering its density and sending it to the top of the pot. It then cools, increasing its density and sending to the bottom of the pot. Repeat.

Conduction, because you can see the flames, it is on direct heat, but if you are boiling water that might be convection.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoHeat is transferred from stove to pot by conduction.
Also the word is convection not convention
Is it radiation too though?

Wiki User
∙ 7y agoWater, heated at the bottom of a pan rises to the top. Its place is taken by colder water from the top moving down. This sets up a flow in the container.

What role do convection currents play as you heat a pot of water?
The role convection currents play as you heat a pot of water is transferring heat by movements of a liqiud or a gas because when when convection occurs it occurs in a circular pattern.
Without convection currents what would happen?
THE WORLD WOULD END. that is all. well not really. THISis what would happen if it were to BLOW UP and the convection currents had died. Really, the water would disappear, we wouldn't have volcanoes or earthquakes, there would be NO LIFE AT ALL WHATSOEVER, there would be NO WIND, and we'd all be dead. sadly.
The difference in air temperature over land compared to over water causes convection currents in the atmosphere. How would a person at the beach experience these convection currents?

Where do you find convection currents?
Convection currents occur in the asthenosphere.
How are currents that form in heated air similar to currents that form in heated water?
Currents that form in heated air are similar to currents that form in warm water because heated air goes up and cold air goes down creating convection currents.
Why does rice swirl around a pot of boiling water?
I believe it is because of convection currents.
2 examples of convection currents in everyday life?
Water boiling and ice melting in the palm of your hand.
Where do convection currents take place in the earth?
Convection currents are located in the astenosphere in boiling water and lots of other places
When pasta moves around in a pan of boiling water rising when it's hot and dropping when it's cold it is know as?
Convection currents.
What are the currents called when water is boiled?
Convection currents
How are convection currents in water like convection currents in earths mantle?
They both are the same because they are currents that move like waves
What are 3 exampels of convection?
1.Water boiling in vessel by burner flame. 2.Water currents in deep sea. 3.Generation of sea wind.Ex.Trade wind
What are some examples of convection currents in everyday life?
The only one I can think of off the top of my head, is a kettle boiling water :) Hope this helps! : ) : )
How does convection current works?
convection currents work when heated water cools then goes to the bottom then heats back up

which diagram correctly indicates why convection currents form in water when water is heated
Is boiling water in a kettle convection?
Yes
What type of heat is boiling water?
convection
