Force opposing the movement of one surface over another?
friction
What is the movement of air due to uneven heating called?
The answer is convection currents: the upward movement of warm air and the downward movement of cool air.
Why does air flow from water to land during the day?
The sun more quickly heats the surface of the land during the daytime than that of the water. The reason for this is that the surface of the water has a much higher effective heat capacity (amount of temperature change for a given unit of heat imparted) than land. This contrast in surface temperatures causes the air column over land to expand, consequently an upper level pressure gradient to develop (high over land at altitude vs low over the water) and flow at altitude from land to ocean. This movement of air out of the land air column and towards the water air column causes a surface pressure gradient to develop, with a surface level high pressure over water and a surface level low over the land. This gradient drives the daytime "see breeze" flow of surface level air from the water to the land. It's actually part of a cell that develops that can be thought of as a roll laying parallel to the shore, going up over land, out to sea at height, down over the sea, and towards land at the surface.
Diffusion of materials over long distance is fast true or false?
False, its slower.
What refers to to water that flows over earths surface?
If you are talking about land above sea , then it would be called run off, because when precipitation falls , whether it is rain or snow , at some point it usually makes its way from the land to the sea via flowing over the surface of the earth.
What factor(s) commonly triggers mass movement?
Saturation of surface materials with water, over steepening of slopes, removal of vegetation, and earthquakes. water
Force opposing the movement of one surface over another?
friction
What is movement involving a glacier sliding over its underlying surface?
Glaciation.
What causes the movement of the air over the earth's surface?
Heat from the Sun.
What is the force opposing the movement of one surface over another?
Friction
What is the surface materials on mars?
Rusted Iron that rusted over thousands of millions of years!
What is the term for a rapid mass movement that flows downhill over a curved surface?
slump
What is name of the mechanism which is used for movement of head over the disk surface?
Actuator Arm or Arm.
The movement of air mass over earth's surface causes?
It causes local weather changes.
What effects does the surface-wind pattern have on the circulation of the oceans?
The movement of wind over the surface of the ocean causes friction. The wind drags the ocean surface with it, making the pattern called surface-ocean wind-drift currents.
Which osi layer facilitates the routing of packets over an IP network?
Network
The movement of these can reshape the earth?
The Earth's crust, known as the lithosphere, is broken into segments known as plates. The movement of the plates over the asthenosphere causes the plates to change position altering Earth's surface.
