What is the physical property of magma?

when magma is inside earth , as inside pressure is much high so when anywhere it founds such place to come out then it does, sometimes it also does happen due to movement of plates over the water surface of earth.


How do convection currents work in the mantle?

What forces would lead to the movement of the plates over the surface of the earth? At this time it is believed this movement results from mantle convection. Deep within the earth there is a large amount of heat coming from two sources: the magma remnants of the Great Bombardment, and radiation from radioactive elements. This heat, in accordance with the 2 ndlaw of thermodynamics, must flow to a cooler place, and subsequently rises to the surface of the Earth. If the Earth were smaller, this heat would flow by conduction, but because of the relatively large size of the Earth, convection also takes place. Thus, as in heating a pot of water on a stove, convection currents are established within the earth, which bring warm material to the surface and send cooler material to the interior.


How and why do earthquakes accure?

An earthquake takes place when the plates rub against each other, the movement forces waves of energy to come to the earth surface. This causes tremors and shakes, and then we can say that an earthquake has taken place.

What are moutnains made of?

You mean mountains? They are made of soil. The movement of the earth caused the soil to move upward and there is where a mountain will appear. Try to imagine this, place a paper on the table. Then place one hand on the left side of the paper and another hand on the right side. Move you hands closer to each other and you'll see the paper starts to deform. That's your mountain. Basically, mountains are formed from earthquake (movement of the earth).

What is the transfer of heat in the atmosphere by the upward movement of air?

The transfer of heat in the atmosphere by the upward movement of air is known as convection. Warm air rises, carrying heat energy with it, while cooler air sinks to take its place. This process helps to distribute heat vertically in the atmosphere and plays a key role in weather patterns.
