What else can I help you with?
What would happen to your weight if earth shrunk?
Depends what you're asking...If the earth was smaller but not you, you would weigh the same. It's just like if the USA or Britain smaller than now or shrunk, we would be the same.
How would the sun look from Pluto?
The sun would look much smaller than it does from Earth but still bright.
Would a smaller planet than earth with the same shape and size have more gravity?
If the planet is smaller, then it can't have the same size. If you assume that a smaller planet has the same density as Earth (and therefore less mass), its surface gravity will be smaller. If you assume that a smaller planet has the same mass as Earth (and therefore more density), its surface gravity will be greater. This is because we would be closer to the planet's center - or to the planet's matter in general.
Would A higher albedo result in an overall cooler climate?
Yes, a higher albedo would result in an overall cooler climate. A higher albedo means that more sunlight is reflected back into space instead of being absorbed by the Earth's surface, which would lead to lower temperatures.
If earths albedo was higher but earth was farther from the sun could the earth have the same temperature?
No, if Earth's albedo was higher and it was farther from the sun, it would receive less solar radiation, leading to cooler temperatures overall. Albedo affects how much incoming solar radiation is reflected back into space, but distance from the sun determines how much solar radiation reaches Earth in the first place.
If Earth was smaller it would have a warmer interior?
A smaller Earth would cool faster because there would be less heat-generating radioactive elements in its core. This would result in a cooler interior temperature, not a warmer one.
What would happen if the Sun's temperature were much cooler and it was much smaller?
If the Sun's temperature were much colder and it were much smaller Earth would no longer support human life
If Earth's interior was the same composition as the crust what would Earth would most likely do?
If Earth's interior had the same composition as the crust, the planet would be cooler and less dynamic. This would result in reduced geological activity such as volcanoes, earthquakes, and plate tectonics. The lack of differentiation in the layers would also impact the magnetic field and the generation of Earth's protective atmosphere.
What would the earth be like if there were no sun?
The earth would be quite a bit cooler and darker than it is now.
What would to earth if the the ocean was much smaller?
the earth would die
What would happen if the interior of the Earth cooled?
In reality, the interior of the Earth is slowly cooling. In human time perspective, however, this cooling has no impact.
If you were a scientist will you undertake a study of the earth's interior?
I sure would!

How convection currents work in the mantle?
What forces would lead to the movement of the plates over the surface of the earth? At this time it is believed this movement results from mantle convection. Deep within the earth there is a large amount of heat coming from two sources: the magma remnants of the Great Bombardment, and radiation from radioactive elements. This heat, in accordance with the 2 ndlaw of thermodynamics, must flow to a cooler place, and subsequently rises to the surface of the Earth. If the Earth were smaller, this heat would flow by conduction, but because of the relatively large size of the Earth, convection also takes place. Thus, as in heating a pot of water on a stove, convection currents are established within the earth, which bring warm material to the surface and send cooler material to the interior.
What would happen to the convection currents in the mantle if earth's interior eventually down?
If the mantle of the earth interior were to cool down the convection currents and plate tectonics would stop. That would mean that there would be no more earthquakes or volcanoes.
