How does surface evaporation happen?
When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere. Evaporation (not vaporization) occur at any temperature; a higher temperature increase the rate of evaporation. The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase and some molecules at the surface can escape in the atmosphere.
How do glaciers tear down or build up earths surface?
The some times make kettle lakes and deposit till
What best explains what happens when liquid water evaporates to form water vapor?
When water molecules at the surface gain sufficient energy they can escape in the atmosphere.The energy of water molecules increase by a temperature increase and some molecules at the surface can escape in the atmosphere.
When water evaporates it cools the surface left behind what is this called?
It is called vaporization, and it happens because the water vapor is taking away some of the heat in the form of energy, and so the surface has less heat energy.
How does heat move out from the inner core to the surrounding layers?
The heat is passed through conduction ,from one atom to another that is why the core is hotter than surface ;some heat is lost in space.
Why are some currents cold and some warm?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as?
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as "Infrared Radiation."
Why are some density currents warm and others cold?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
What does HELP stand for in swimming?
H.E.L.P stands for: Heat Escape Lessening Position OR, some people also call it: Heat Escape Lessening Posture
What are some examples of landforms that have formed on earths surface?
Volcanoes
Does heat escape into space or is it recycled on this planet?
Some heat does escape into outerspace, but most is recycled elsewhere within the earth.
Why are warm currents warm and cold currents cold?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
What causes earths surface to heat up?
The sun ray's are most responsible for Earth's surface temperature.
What is the major heat source of earth's crust?
there are many reasons for heat in earths crust. like the friction between rock masses during movements of earths crust. there may also be heat left over from the original heat of earths interior. but the main reason for heat in earths crust is radioactive elements. they give off energy that can be absorbed as heat. some radioactive elements include uranium, thorium, and a form of potassium.
What covers the earths surface?
mostly water. There are some continents on there too though i believe.
What are some limitations of geothermal energy?
you have to be in a surtain place were the magma is close to earths surface
Where do you experience more gravity on earths surface or earths center?
on the surfaceNote:Since the earth's composition is not homogeneous, the gravitational acceleration onthe surface is probably less than what it is some small distance below the surface,but it's certainly greater than at the center.
