How do you think the convection cell might affect the earths crust?
The way the convection cell might affect the crust above it is that it can cause the earths surface to turn into a volcano. If there is already a volcano there then it will erupt,
What force hold earths atmosphere in place?
That's gravity. Near the surface air has a density of about 1.2Kg/m^3. Air isn't that lightweight as you might think. We usually just don't lift it, but push it away, which is much easier.
How might erosion affect homes built along a seacoast?

What percentage of the earths land surface is forest?
I read that it's about 1 fith but I might be wrong
What else might affect the amount of water in the ground?
something else that might affect the amount of water in the ground is having a drought as well as defforestation.
How does gravity affect mas and weight?
gravity can make an object weigh more or less depending on the gravity level. eg on earth you might weight 10 pounds and on mars you might weight 15 pounds but mas does not depend upon gravity.
Does freezing affect the weight of an object?
No it does not, but it might affect the volume of the object (it might shrink or expand).

How might cutting down a large percentage of earths forests affect the greenhouse affect?
it will make the earth hotter
How do you think the gravity of Jupiter would affect any astronauts who might land there?
They die
What are some of the forces that act upon object in motion?
What kind of object in what kind of motion? The question is too vague to answer, and the forces depend on the properties of the object and its environment anyway. For example, there might ... or might not ... be significant electromagnetic and/or gravitational forces acting on the object (technically, any real object in the real universe WILL have electromagnetic and gravitational forces acting on it, but they may be insignificant in some cases).
Example of gravity related to mass?
Acceleration of gravity multiplied by mass gets you the weight of an object.The force of gravity on earth accelerates at 9.8m/s^2.Multiply the mass of the object (in Kg) by 9.8, and you will get the weight.Note:Mass of an object remains constant no matter where you are. Weight might not, because it is dependent on force of gravity.
What othe object in space does mercury resemble why?
Mercury resembles Earth's Moon in appearance
Do protons travel in a straight line?
Like any other object, they will travel in a straight line as long as no force pulls them sideways. Forces that might affect them (if present) include, in this case, gravity, as well as electric and magnetic fields.
Does jupter have gravity and a atmosphere?
Gravity: Of course it has gravity. Any planet - moreover, any object that has mass (mass is what you measure in kilograms) has gravity. Atmosphere: You might say that Jupiter consists only of atmosphere. It is a gas giant, just as Saturn, Uranus, or Neptune. Specifically, it doesn't have a surface on which you might stand.
Do you have a force of gravity when an object is in a free fall?
The object in free fall is actually accelerating toward the earth, this acceleration is caused by gravity. So, yes gravity will be acting on a falling object and any object near the earth. It might help you to think of the same object on the other side of the earth falling up to remind you that it is the earth pulling on everything around it toward the centre. The phrase "free fall" is really misleading imoh.
What is the differnece between mass and gravity?
This is like asking: What is the difference between electricity and weight? Mass is the amount of physical material in an object, and gravity is a force. You may be asking about the fact that the mass of an object (under ordinary non-relativistic conditions) remains the same even if the object is floating freely in space. On the other hand, the weight of an object is a measure of the amount of gravitational force exerted on an object. On the surface of the earth, an object may weigh many tons, and have an associated mass measured in grams. That same object is weightless in space but has the same number of grams of mass no matter where it is. This is why you might see answers indicating that the earth or some other planet is weightless. This seems absurd, but it is true. The planets are very massive, but unless you can put them on a scale in a gravitational field, they don't weigh a thing.
