How does the process of convection rely on radiation?
It relys on it because convection are the air currents that have to be heated by something, so you need objects to radiate heat to heat up the air to start the current
What are the examples of convection?
Cup of coffee ! - that is the easiest thing because the coffee in the cup heats up and the atoms bounce of the cup and move around. There movement takes place and movement deals with convection ! More Examples Without Explanations: -lava lamp -stove item -spoon in pot of soup -................
When do convection currents form?
Convection currents can form any time at any place, even in your stove or house. It is created when a warm fluid rises and moves, becomes cold, falls, and is heated up again. it is a cycle see!! For example, pretend you are boiling water. The fire heats up the water at the bottom, the water rises than cools when it is on the fire and is not being heated. So the cold water falls again and later heats up due to the fire. Oh yeah, warm fluid has less density, so it rises, cold fluids have a greater density, so it falls.
How is air warmed?
The sun, originally, but the sun actually heats the earth, and warm air rises from the surface of the earth and is trapped by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This is mostly how the air gets warm.
What happens to pressure in a metal spray when heated up?
It heats up
How the heat from the cooker heats up all of the soup?
Convection currents.
A radiator heats a room by heating the air which circulates in convection currents?
Correct! A radiator heats the air in a room through convection. As the air near the radiator heats up, it becomes less dense and rises, creating a convection current that circulates the warmer air throughout the room.
Does The mantle of the earth continually heats up and cools down using convection currents?
Yes, the mantle of the Earth heats up and cools down due to convection currents. Heat from the Earth's core drives convection currents in the mantle, causing hot material to rise and cool material to sink. This movement transfers heat throughout the mantle, driving plate tectonics and volcanic activity.
How does convection affect the breezes at the ocean?
the sea water heats up or cools down the air so it will make the air sink or rise which is to do with convection.
In what two places do convection currents form when the Sun heats Earth?
Convection currents form in the atmosphere and oceans when the Sun heats the Earth. As the air and water near the Earth's surface warm up, they become less dense and rise, creating a circulation pattern where cooler air or water replaces them.
Is it convection conduction or radiation when the inside of the car heats in the sun?
The inside of a car heating in the sun is primarily due to radiation. The sun emits electromagnetic radiation that heats up the car's interior surfaces. Convection and conduction also play a role, but radiation is the dominant mechanism for heating the car's interior in this scenario.
Does boiling something use convection?
Yes, boiling something uses convection to transfer heat energy from the bottom of the pot to the liquid. As the liquid at the bottom heats up, it becomes less dense and rises, while cooler liquid from the top of the pot sinks down to replace it, creating a convection current that evenly heats the entire liquid.
Why is hot sand heats the air convection?
I think you mean why does hot sand heat the air by convection... The sand is heated by the sun, and the air is touching the sand, which is hot, so by convection, the sand is heating the air.
Is the sun convection or conduction?
The sun heats up through a process called convection, where energy is transferred through the movement of hot gases. The energy generated at the sun's core travels outward through convection currents in the outer layers of the sun.
Does convection require medium?
yes
How is the atmosphere affected by the convection?
The atmosphere is affected by convention because convection heats the lower atmosphere. Radiation transfers energy which other gases heat up. Conduction does not impact the atmosphere in these same ways.
How does solar energy create convection currents?
As the suns rays hit the solar panel and heats up, the air or liquid heats up and becomes less dense so it rises, this now leaves the dense cool air to heat up which is lower since cool air doesn't rise. The sun heats up the cool air or liquid (usually solar panels are used to heat up hot water tanks) and this rises also, this has now made a 'convection current', the liquid will continue this convection current until its all at the same temperature. Solids do not go through convection current because the particles are closely packed and don't move because they have a definite shape.
