What three factors set convection in motion?
The three factors that set convection currents in motion are: the heating and cooling of fluid, the change in it's density, and the force of gravity.
What 3 things set convection currents in motion?
The three main factors that are responsible for setting convection currents in motion are the cooling and heating of fluid, any changes to their density and the force of gravity. These factors combine to set the currents in motion.
Why are there three convection currents in the asthenosphere?
There way more than that.
What are the three main driving forces of air motion?
Pressure Gradient Force Coriolis Force Friction Force Pressure Gradient Force Coriolis Force Friction Force
What are the three factors that from deep currents?
The three factors that help form deep currents are ...density,salinity,and tempature.
Can you name three convection currents?
The Mantel and CoresOne is RadiatorKettle, Electric Heater and Light Bulb
What are the three processes that cause tectonic plates to move?
Three processes that contribute to the motion of tectonic plates are convection currents, ridge push, and slab pull. Convection currents is when the mantle rises, cools, sinks and heats, then rises and repeats the cycle. Ridge push is a gravitational force that causes a plate to move. Slab pull is the movement of tectonic plate lithosphere due to convection currents in the asthenosphere.
What three factors that affect surface ocean currents?
the sun and erosion
What three spheres of the earth do convection currents occur?
in the outside and inside and underneath and between layers
What three factors controls the path of surface currents?
wind,earth's rotation,weather
What are three factors that affect the surface ocean currents?
Continental deflections,the Coriolis effect and global winds all effect surface ocean currents.
What are three factors that controles surface currents?
global winds, Coriolis effect, and continental deflection
