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 major heat source of earth's crust?

there are many reasons for heat in earths crust. like the friction between rock masses during movements of earths crust. there may also be heat left over from the original heat of earths interior. but the main reason for heat in earths crust is radioactive elements. they give off energy that can be absorbed as heat. some radioactive elements include uranium, thorium, and a form of potassium.


What is one possible reason for the rise in the average air temperature at earth's surface?

One possible reason for the rise in the average air temperature at Earth's surface is the increase in greenhouse gas emissions, such as carbon dioxide and methane, trapping more heat in the atmosphere. This enhanced greenhouse effect leads to global warming and overall higher temperatures.


Will a ball bounce higher on tile or carpet?

A ball will typically bounce higher on a hard surface like tile compared to a soft surface like carpet. This is because the hard surface allows for less energy to be absorbed upon impact, resulting in a higher bounce.


What is the reason that higher average surface densities are found in the Southern Hemisphere?

Higher average surface densities are found in the Southern Hemisphere due to the presence of extensive ocean basins and the Southern Hemisphere having less landmass compared to the Northern Hemisphere. This results in a larger proportion of the Southern Hemisphere being covered by water, leading to higher average surface densities in that region.

Would there be winds if earths surface was the same temperature everywhere?

No, there would not be winds if the earth's surface was the same temperature everywhere. The reason why is because during the day the land heats up faster than the water.


What is the reason for the rise in the average air temperature at the earths surface?

The Industrial Revolution began increasing the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere when we started burning fossil fuel.


What is the reason that ozone near the earths surface is dangerous?

Because the pollutions and the chemicals are so thick in the ozone layer, it is too dangerous for us to breath and if those chemicals and pollutant gases where to get to our surface, we'd get sick and/or die.


What are the various reasons why political influence is always distributed unevenly in various political systems?

pluralism is the reason why political influence is distributed unevenly in various political systems as the government and non government use their resources to get what they want


Why is the world so unevenly distributed?

The reason why the population is so unevenly distributed is because people tend to live in areas that are favorable for settlement. Also because some people are crowed with people, while some others are empty


Why the end of a glass rod becomes round on heating reason?

when glass rod is heated ,it melts. Now a liquid having surface tension ,tends to have least surface area.we know that a spherical surface has least surface area compared to other shapes of same volume.so end of a glass rod becomes round when heated .........geddit :)


When the earths shadow falls on the moon?

The shadow of the Earth on the moon's surface is the reason that it takes different phases. When the Earth completely occludes the moon, it is a new moon, and when there is no shadow, it is a full moon.

the tilt of the earths axis


What are advantages of radioactive decay?

One reason is that radioactive decay heats the earths interior


Are satellites orbiting earths gravity?

No. They orbit Earth; and the reason they orbit is because of gravity.


Why are mountains covered in ice?

The atmosphere gets colder as you go up. The reason is that the lower portion of the atmosphere is heated from below (by the heating of the land surface), and the higher you go the farther you are from the heat source, that is why it is cooler and covered in ice most of the time.
