Energy is done when a force causes an object to move?
Work is done when force causes an object to move and capacity of doing work is called energy So, energy is required and consumed when force causes an object to move
How does a Stingray move?
stingrays move with their wings in the bottom of the ocean where it is sandy and dark.
What is the force that causes objects to move in circles?
The force that causes circular motion is called "centripetal force".
What causes an object to move in a circular path?
Centripetal Force ^^
In convection heat causes a or a to move upward?
solid or a liquid
How does a homemade lava lamp work?
it has this wax called hydromonic substance that make the lava move
Does the heat move the bubbles up and down in a lava lamp?
Yes, the heat is important in lava lams.
How do convention currents move?
Heated from the bottom, the warmer substance will slowly rise to the top while the cooler substance at the top falls to the bottom to be heated again. Look at a lava lamp. That is all about convection currents.
How is the Earth's mantle different from a lava lamp?
Lava Lamp:requires an external electrical heat sourceman-madeconstructed of glass and metalparaffin inside moves quickly relative to magma in mantlecan be purchasedis transportablecomes in a variety of colorseasily observablerequired temperature of operation less than 200o FEarth's mantle:occurs naturallypowered by Earth's internal heatconsists largely of ultra-mafic rocktemperatures can reach 4000o Fcannot be purchased, observed directly, or transportedis rather large compared to lava lamp, comprising 83% of Earth's total volumemovement of rock is extremely slow compared to movement of paraffin in lava lamp
Why is heat needed to make a lava lamp work?
Because it relies on the characteristic of warm stuff rising to the surface to get the blobs to move.
What is the depented variable of a lava lamp?
The independent variable is the heat of the light bulb, the dependent variable is the heat absorbed by the wax substance (or other convective liquid) which makes the substances in the lamp move due to density convection.
What is a good example of convection besides boiling water or a lava lamp?
the earth's mantle is always moving inside which move the plate on the earth's crusthope that made sense.
At what speeds does lava move?
That depends mainly upon its composition. It can move very quickly, or quite slowly. A man can generally move faster lava flows, but not always. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lava
Is lava fast?
Not usually. Most lava flows move at a fraction of a mile per hour. However, the lava flows of Niyragongo in Africa can move at up to 60 mph.
How does heat move in oceans?
lava from volcanos
How does larva move?
no lava can't fly
How does homemade lava lamps works?
it has this wax called hydromonic substance that make the lava move
