How the movement of tectonic plates result in the formation of crustal features?
Magma is the molten rock below the crust, in the mantle. Tremendous heat and pressure within the earth cause the hot magma to flow in convection currents. These currents cause the movement of the tectonic plates that make up the earth's crust.
What 4 elements make up weather?
wind rain heat and earth
What is the heat that is used from the inside of the the earth to produce steam to make into energy?
Geothermal energy
Why is it important that there is a heat balance around the earth?
so that heat and cold dont collide and make a sharknadoe (movie is based on a true story)
Can some volcanoes make geothermal energy?
yes geothermal energy is heat coming from earth's core
What three things make heat flow?
Heat flow is made by conduction, convection or radiation.

What is the main method of heat transfer from the core to the crust of the earth?
Well mantle convection is thought to make up about eighty percent of the internal heat flow to the surface, while the remainder originates in the crust.
What cause the massive amounts of rocks that make up the earth plates to move?
The tectonic plates float on top of magma, and within the magma are convection currents which result from heat generated by radioactive decay of various isotopes found within the interior of the Earth.
Does all heat from sun make it to the earth?
no
What make geothermal renewable?
Heat from the earth.
How do you make sun in little?
heat and earth
What make Earth warm?
it is the pressure released by the earth and the sun's heat.
How does this flow of heat make your skin feel when water is on your skin?
sensation of warmth
Can heat prevent the start of your period?
It can't it can only make you flow lowere
How much force is required to make coal into diamonds?
Diamonds are not made from coal. Diamonds are formed deep within the earth's mantle under enormous pressure and extreme heat, from carbon.
How does the greenhouse effect make the earth warmer?
When the sun emit the UV rays and when the rays and heat arrive in the earth,the greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide,water vapour and methane)trap them inside the earth.Then the earth absorb the heat and when the earth is unable to handle the heat,the earth starts radiating the heat. And as a result the earth becomes hot.
