What are effects of connection currents in the mantle?
The flow of mantle effects convection currents in the mantle. This process happens as hot material within the mantle begins to rise. As it rises, it begins to cool and then sinks. This process repeats as a cycle of convection currents.
Convection currents discovered date?
convection currents discovery date
How can something as large and heavy as a whole continent move around?
tectonic plates move by convection currents. Convection currents are currents that start by hot air rising and eventually turning cooler then lowers. This continues in a constant pattern like a week.
What sports use convection current?
there are noneactually this answer is wrong the REAL ANSWER IS: ice skating, ice hockey,and hot air balloon competitions
How thick are the convection currents?
Convection currents can vary in thickness, typically ranging from a few centimeters to kilometers depending on the scale of the system in which they occur. In the Earth's mantle, for example, convection currents can be tens to hundreds of kilometers thick.
Are convection currents hot?
yes
Plate motion is caused partly by magnetic reversals convection currents continental drift or volacnic hot spots?
Convection currents
Use the word convection in a sentence?
the earth's convection currents cause continental drift.
What type of currents form as hot and cool portion of a liquid or gas move?
Convection currents.
Can Heat be transferred through convection?
Yes. Convection currents move hot materials to other places.
What causes the hot materials beneath ocean floor to move?
Convection currents.
How is the rock cycle related to the movement to earths plates?

How is the rock cycle related to the movement to earths plated?

How is the rock cycle related to the movement of earth's plate?

What are Convetion Currents?
convection currents are when hot rock from deep inside the the earth rises but cooler rock near the surface sinks
What are effects of connection currents in the mantle?

How do crustal plate came to existence?
They are the solid crustal rock floating on the top of a mantle convection cell. They formed the same way slag forms on the tops of convection cells in the molten metal in a smelter furnace. Sections of the mantle also float on the tops of convection cells in the molten metal of the liquid core. If you want to watch the tops of some convection cells form and move, get a cup of some hot drink (e.g. coffee or tea) and let it sit undisturbed for a minute or so to let all currents but convection currents stop. When you look at the surface of the hot drink it will be covered in very tiny polygons. These polygons are the tops of convection cells in the drink, don't they look something like a miniature map of crustal plates? Watch as they expand, contract, and move about.
