What does free and forced convection mean?
Forced convection is when air ascends as a result of another force, such as the actions of fronts, orographic lifting, or converging wind. Free convection is caused by a factor such as intense heating of the Earth's surface, which warms air and causes it to rise.
Is a bowl of oatmeal cooling is an example of conduction radiation or convection?
I don’t understand IM ON A TEST LOL (jk it’s convection losers)
What is the best example of convection?
I don't think such a thing as a "best" example exists. Here are some examples; take your pick which of these you like "best"; or look for additional examples:* In part of the Sun, energy is transported outwards through convection. * When you boil water (or, for that matter, anything that contains water), convection will make the water move around in the pot. * In solar panels - of the type that heat water - convection moves colder water from the tank to the panels, and it moves hotter water back to the tank. * Wind is the result of convection.
What is a toaster convection or radiation?
convection
What is the role of molecular action in convection and conduction?
The role of molecular action in convection is the that molecules that are relative to one another create kinetic energy that is the end result. The role of molecular action in conduction is that molecules collide with one another to create a transfer of heat or energy.
The type of energy called convection happens as a result of?
Convection currents
Is Thunderstorms are the result of convection an opinion?
No. That is a fact.
What are circulating currents in a fluid called?
If it is a result of temperature differences, it is called convection.
Does conduction make wind?
No. wind is primarily a result of convection.
Do convection currents create heat?
No. Convection currents are the result of a temperature difference between one depth and another in fluid.
What is the general result of the motion of convection currents in the mantle beneath the Atlantic ocean?
The general result is to make the ocean basin wider.
Heat transfer that takes place as a result of currents in liquids and gases is called?
Convection
The Sun heats Earth's atmosphere unevenly This causes convection currents to move in large circles in the atmosphere What is the result of convection currents in the atmosphere?
Study Island answer: Wind
Which layer of earth are the convection currents that directly result in tectonic plate motion found?
mantle
Describe the convection currents that occur inside Earth?
Convection currents are the movement of fluid as a result of differential heating or convection. In the case of the Earth, convection currents refer to the motion of molten rock in the mantle as radioactive decay heats up magma, causing it to rise and driving the global scale flow of magma.

Forced convection is when air ascends as a result of another force, such as the actions of fronts, orographic lifting, or converging wind. Free convection is caused by a factor such as intense heating of the Earth's surface, which warms air and causes it to rise.
What is one result of convection in Earth's outer core?
