What else can I help you with?
Where in the earths layers are the convection currents found?
Lithosphere
Which direction does the air currents towards the poles or away from the poles?
Away from the poles because the air near Earths surface is warm.
The driving forces to tectonic plates are related to convection currents in earths what?
mantle.
What causes surface ocean currents to flow in a circular pattern or earths revolution earths revolutoin or earths rotation?
Surface ocean currents flow in a circular pattern due to a combination of Earth's rotation (Coriolis effect) and the shape of the continents. The Coriolis effect causes water to deflect to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere, resulting in the circular motion of currents. This, along with the shape of the coastlines, influences the direction and pattern of ocean currents.
What is earths mantle heated by?
Earth's mantle is mainly heated by the decay of radioactive isotopes and residual heat from the formation of the planet. This heat causes convection currents in the mantle which drive plate tectonics and other geological processes.
How are convection currents in water like convection currents in earths mantle?
They both are the same because they are currents that move like waves
How do the earths plates move?
Currents in the magma that exists in the deeper layers of the earth. They're called convection currents.
What kind of currents drive earths plates?
Convection currents.
Why are warm currents warm and cold currents cold?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
How does the rotation of earth modify ocean currents in the northern hemisphere?
because of the Earths rotation the ocean currents are not in straight lines. In the northern hemisphere they curve to the right
How does the rotation of earth modifies ocean currents in the northern hemisphere?
because of the Earths rotation the ocean currents are not in straight lines. In the northern hemisphere they curve to the right
Why are some currents cold and some warm?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
When the path of winds and ocean currents seem to curve because of the Earths rotation it is called the?
The Coriolis effect
How is the rock cycle related to the movement to earths plates?
convection currents convection currents convection currents
How is the rock cycle related to the movement to earths plated?
convection currents convection currents convection currents
Why are some density currents warm and others cold?
there are some warm currents as they flow along the earths surface while there some cold currents as they travel below the earths surface
When the paths of wind and ocean currents curve because of earths rotation it's called the?
Coriolis effect and your mom
