By what two methods does geothermal heat get to the earths surface?
Geothermal heat reaches the Earth's surface through conduction, which involves the slow transfer of heat through the Earth's crust, and through convection, where hot molten rock rises towards the surface, bringing heat along with it.
How does interior heat reach earths surface?
Imagine the mantle (the hot bit under the Earth's crust), like a lava lamp. The hot magma, which has been heated right down at the very bottom, near the outer core, is less dense then the rest of the magma. It rises, like your lava lamp bubble, until it reaches the crust. If it's hot enough, the magma can melt it's way through to the surface, causing those things we call volcanoes to form.
How is earth's surface heated by the sun?
The Earth's surface is heated by the sun through a process called solar radiation. Sunlight, which consists of energy in the form of electromagnetic waves, reaches the Earth and heats up its surface when it is absorbed by land, water, and other surfaces. This energy is then retained and warms the Earth's surface.
Which of the following is an interaction between the earths interior and atmosphere and surface?
One example of an interaction between the Earth's interior and the atmosphere and surface is volcanic activity. When magma from the Earth's mantle reaches the surface through volcanic eruptions, it releases gases and ash into the atmosphere, affecting weather patterns and air quality. Additionally, the heat from volcanic activity can influence climate and contribute to the formation of new landforms.
Can density difference force magma upward into cooler layers of earths interior?
FALSE: gravity cannot force magma upwards, gravity can olny force downwars. the reason magma shoots from the earths interior is because the pressure from the magma trying to push through the force gravity causes an eruption.
What is the seismic wave that travel's through the earths interior?
A body wave is a seismic wave that travels through Earths interior.
What is a seismic wave that travels through Earth Interior?
A body wave is a seismic wave that travels through Earths interior.
Is earths interior hot or cold?
The earths interior is cold
How is earth atmosphere warmed evenly?
Energy is transferred between the earths surface and the atmosphere via conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the process by which heat energy is transmitted through contact with neighboring molecules.
By what two methods does geothermal heat get to the earths surface?
Geothermal heat reaches the Earth's surface through conduction, which involves the slow transfer of heat through the Earth's crust, and through convection, where hot molten rock rises towards the surface, bringing heat along with it.
The seismic waves that travel through Earths interior are waves?
body waves

Does the energy move from earths surface and atmosphere out of space through radiation conduction or convection?
conduction because there is more heat in space then there is in earth
Is the earth heated by the sun?
it is heated by conduction by the earths atmosphere
Which have scientist learned from studying seismic waves that travel through earths interior?
The speed of the waves that travel through the interior can tell the density of each layer of the Earth. Some waves can make it through certain layers, but not others.
What is the magma when it reaches the earths surface?
Magma that reaches the Earth's surface is known as lava.
