A radiator heats a room by heating the air which circulates in convection currents?
Yeah you are right convection currents are movement of the air
How is destiny involved in the process of convection?
It's the change (decrease) in density with heating that produces the currents that we refer to as convection currents.
What creates the currents in the mantle of the earth?
they are convection currents, caused by the heating effect of the earths core
The main cause of global convection currents is?
uneven heating of the earth by the sun
What do convection currents resulting from uneven heating of Earth's surface form?
wind
Convection currents in Earths mantle are believed to be responsible for?
Earth's Plates
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.
What three factors set convection currents in motion?
The three factors that set convection currents in motion are: the heating and cooling of fluid, change in its density, and the force of gravity combine to set it in motion.
What are convection currents?
convectional currents in the mantle are themselves driven by the heat of the core. the heat is partly created of overlaying material. A lava lamp is a perfect example of convectional
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.
What causes global convection currents to form?
Differences in temperature on earth
What form of energy leads to convection currents?
the form of energy would be heat. convection currents are caused by uneven heating of air or fluid. The warmer fluid is more boyant than the cooler fluid, so it floats to the top, and creates a "convection current"
