Which forms of heat transfer are described above as helping to create a sea breeze?
Two forms of heat transfer help create a sea breeze are conduction and convection. Another form of heat transfer help create a sea breeze is radiation.
How is heat transferred in solids liquids and gases?
Conduction is the method of travel for heat through a solids.Convection needs something flowing to carry heat. That means a liquid, such as water, or a gas, such as air.Solids don't flow. They block convection.Some of the cool air gets compressed to the bottom of a container or object you are trying to heat and the cycle will continue but when you stop heating the cycle is broken and the liquid solid gas wich is being heated cools down.
Which method of heat transfer causes actual movement?
Both conduction and convection. Conduction involves the small movements of individual particles, convection can be on a much larger scale with a hot liquid or gas rising and a cool liquid or gas dropping.

What are the three processes of heat transfer?
The three methods of heat transfer are: (1) Conduction - particles bump into other particles, transferring energy. (2) Convection - moving masses carry heat with them. Especially, hot air (for example) tends to rise up, because of its lower density - the heat difference itself causes the currents. (3) Radiation. Objects radiate electromagnetic radiation, depending on their temperature. (The amount of energy radiated increases quickly at higher temperatures.)
How come when you are away from the stove you still feel the heat is it because of convection evaporation or conduction?
Neither, it is radiation that causes you to feel the heat from a distance.
What role does heat play in the rock cycle?
Heat energy from the sun causes water to change to a liquid to a gas
How do conduction convection and radiation affect the movement and temperature of air near the ocean?
Conduction, convection and radiation affects the movement and temperature of air near the ocean. Conduction causes difference in temperatures. For example, during a hot day, land heats up more quickly than water. Water is a better conductor of heat. The air near the land's surface is heated due to conduction and radiation. It expands and rises since it is lighter than surrounding air. This is called convection. To replace the air that rose, the air from the sea's surface blows to land.

What method causes thermal energy to move the air?
CONVECTION
Primary force that causes continents to drift?
thermal convection
What causes thermal conductivity?
when heat travells through a material which over heats it. Thermal conduction then applies
Causes of x-ray tube failures?
failure of excessive heat by radiation, conduction and convection, bearing failures or glass envelope breaking pitting of tungsten target, arcing, filament failure.
How does convection differ from convection?
Well it differs in this way. Conduction is when heat is applied to an object and causes mainly the point of contact to be heated. For example lighting a match under a metal rod. It will mainly heat the point of contact, eventually heating the rest of the rod. Additionally, conduction can be referred to when talking about electricity and whether a material can conduct or not. Convection is different as it disperses heat evenly through a liquid. For example, boiling water. A single point of the water is heated, then it rises, allowing colder water from the top to fall, heat, rise and creates a current, evenly heating the water. The same example can be used when referring to preheating an oven. Hopefully this helps. Convection involves the actual movement of fluid materiel, either liquid or gas, usually in a gravitational field where the difference in temperature causes difference in density which in turn causes fluid motion. Conduction can and does occur concurrently with convection, but does not involve the macroscopic movement of materiel. Conduction can occur in gasses or liquids, but also in solids. Conduction occurs when the thermal vibrations of hotter mater are transferred to cooler matter. There is a third method of heat transfer, Radiation. Radiation can occur in all three phases of matter, but can also transfer heat across a vacuum. Usually thermal radiation is in electromagnetic wavelengths too long to be visible, but in some situations like an incandescent bulb or the sun, it can be seen.

What provide the force that causes magma to erupt to the surface?
Convection, and thermal expansion.
