Which process do air currents transfer heat energy throughout the room?
convection
Can heat be transferred in the air?
Yes, in pockets of air, energy in the form of heat can be transferred by either convection currents, or by radiation.
How is most thermal energy in the atmosphere transfered?
From the surface, it would be via convection currents
What does the high specific heat of water have to do with the convection currents in the air at the seashore?
Water'specific heat capacity is 4200 J/Kg°C . This high specific heat capacity suggests that the water will travel long distances without losing heat . This makes the convection currents in the air last longer.
What is a heat air moves from baseboard heaters to the rest of a room in a process called?
Baseboard heaters depends on convection currents in air to move heat around a room.
What kind of heat transfer happens when the kithcen in your house gets warm when the oven is on?
When heat is transfered through a gas (air) like it is here, it is either radiation or convection.
How do air currents affect heat in Earths atmosphere?
Air currents affect heat by absorbing the particles which causes the particles to expand to make it even hotter.
What is transfer of heat by currents of air or water?
convection
What is the transfer of heat by currents of air or water?
convection
Which process do air currents transfer heat energy throughout the room?
convection
What is heat transferred by moving air currents called?
convection
What happens to convection currents when the liquid or gas is no longer heat?
Nothing actually happens to convection currents when heat is no longer supplied. The currents are produced by applying heat, most often to the bottom. The warmed fluid is 'lighter' than the cold fluid surrounding so it rises to allow colder fluid to replace it and be heated. As soon as the heat is removed, all the fluid rapidly comes to a single temperature and convevtion does not happen! An opposite effect happens when cold air sits on the surface of a lake. In this case the water at the surface cools, gets 'heavier' and sinks. In this case the convection currents operates downwards.
Can heat be transferred in the air?
Yes, in pockets of air, energy in the form of heat can be transferred by either convection currents, or by radiation.
How is the air found in soils different from the air atmosphere?
it happens when it is not exposed to moving air currents
