Of course, it is when air is positively buoyant, while it rises itself.
For conduction and convection we need a material medium. But for radiation such a meaterial medium is not necessary. So in free space radiation can pass through easily.
Conduction and convection badly needs material medium but radiation does not need a material medium as an essential one. It could traverse even in free space in the form of electromagnetic waves
Deadly convection is a misnomer. Deadly convection is not deadly but it's an air convection. Deadly convection actually means an unseasonable air convection that causes relative humidity to drop rapidly, especially just after a terribly heavy rain, there's a huge wildfire.
Normal convection occurs naturally due to temperature differences, while forced convection is induced by external means such as fans or pumps. Forced convection typically has higher heat transfer rates compared to natural convection due to the enhanced fluid motion generated by the external force.
How does a convection current move rock
Forced convection is when air ascends as a result of another force, such as the actions of fronts, orographic lifting, or converging wind. Free convection is caused by a factor such as intense heating of the Earth's surface, which warms air and causes it to rise.
Kotorynski has written: 'Free and forced convection of heat in viscous flow' -- subject(s): Thermodynamics, Heat, Convection
Convection currents are caused by a rising temperature of liquid in the earth's mantle. The risk is that the pressure will build up and, through volcanoes, the liquid will be pushed out. The risk level varies from place to place and is carefully monitored by geologists.
free convection : the transfer of heat resulting from differences in density of air, that thereby causes the flow of air. mechanical convection the transfer of heat resulting from a blower or fan that actively forces heated air throughout all areas
Convection can happen in any state of matter in which the matter is free to move - such as a liquid, a gas, a plasma, a superfluid, a liquid crystal, etc.
Convection
Convection is the mode of heat transfer, referring to the transfer of heat energy due to bulk motion of a fluid."Convection current" is the name of that bulk motion of the fluid, the transfer of MASS. I prefer to call it buoyantly driven flow. It doesn't flow due to convection, convection is due to if flowing. It flows due to buoyancy in the case of free convection.Peyton

water/gasses
Yes. Convection is a type of energy and a convection current is, well, the phrase for its currents. So yeah, convection and convection current are the same.
