Why does the energy from the sun travel to Earth by radiation instead of by convection or conduction?
Convection and conduction require matter to travel through, and there is no matter between Earth and the Sun
What provides the matter and energy for plate movement?
convection
What kinds of matter carry heat by convection?
liquid and gas
What is the transfer of thermal energy by movement of heated matter?
convection
How his thermal energy transferred from one to another by convection?
Convection currents occur in liquid. Heat excites the matter near the source and causes it to rise, making nearby matter rush in to fill the space. Then that matter is heated, rises, and so on. A good example of this is the Earth's mantle: heat from the core is dispersed by convection currents.
What is a good sentence for convection?
Convection is the movement of matter due to differences in density.
What two states of matter can occur in convection?
Convection currents are in the liquid and gas states.
What are twotypes of matter that convection olny happens in?
Convection can happen in any state of matter in which the matter is free to move - such as a liquid, a gas, a plasma, a superfluid, a liquid crystal, etc.
What does conduction and convection uses that radiation does not?
Matter.

What provides the matter and energy for plate movement?
convection
How does the atmosphere create wind with convection?
matter or the quantity of matter evaporated or passed off in vapor.
In conduction and convection heat moves through?
molecules in matter
What is the transfer of thermal energy by the movement of heated matter?
convection
In which of the three states of matter does convection occur?
liquids and gases
What kinds of matter carry heat by convection?
liquid and gas
