Density changes in the asthenosphere are caused by the flow of what energy from deep within the earth?
a giant comes and transfers energy into the asthenosphere by getting inside a toyota and riding it the earth and he goes so fast that he creates energy and then he putts all the energy in a body bad and sprinkles it all over the earth like if it were sprinkles on ice cream.
Convection currents carry thermal energy from the sun to Earth?
No. Convection requires a medium to carry thermal energy from one place to another. There is no or not enough of any material in space to accomplish this. Radiation will carry thermal energy from the sun to the Earth.
What kind of energy is geothermal energy?
Geothermal energy is thermal energy that is made and stored in the Earth. Thermal energy determines the temperature of things. Geothermal energy can be used for electricity.
How is thermal energy transferred on Earth's surface?
By the hydrosphere.
What does the earths internal thermal energy come from?
From radioactivity in the Earth's interior.
How the sun transfer energy to earth?
the sun transfer the heat to earth by radiation of heat
In what situations on earth are insulation and limiting thermal energy transfer important?
When you are out and about in the arctic in winter.
Were is the most thermal energy?
On Earth, the greatest source of thermal energy would be at the earth's core.

Why must it be the sun that provides thermal energy to the earth?
Sun provides heat to earth's surface. It provides thermal energy to the earth.
How does thermal energy travels from the sun to the earth?
Thermal energy travels through space in the form of electromagnetic waves in the low infrared (IR) spectrum. In the daytime, what you feel as warmth on your skin is IR. It is invisible and can only be felt, not seen; light can only be seen, not felt.
Is thermal energy required to form tornadoes?
Yes. All storms on earth are driven by thermal energy.
Which process transfers thermal energy by contact?
This proess is called conduction. The other processes are convection and radiation. Convection is the transfer of energy through movement, such as boiling water. Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy through a medium or space, such as the sun heating the earth.
How does the transfer of energy inside earth affect its surface?
The transfer of energy inside the Earth effects its surface by warming it.
How do use the word thermal energy in a sentence?
We studied about Thermal Energy in my Science class. The sum of the kinetic and potential energy of all the molecules in an object is the thermal energy. Thermal energy is a form of energy that can be used in some places. I think I can save money by using thermal energy from the earth.
Where is thermal energy made?
thermal energy is made in numerous places, such as the earth's core, your body and space heaters. any where you feel heat is giving off thermal energy.
Disadvantages of thermal energy?
There are many disadvantages to using thermal energy including the cost. It is very expensive to harvest thermal energy from many feet below Earth's surface.
