∙ 11y agoconvection is the theory that hot things rise and cold things don't. Obviously this doesn't apply to most solids but in liquids and gases this is very real. In a tall room the temperature at the top of the room will be a couple of degrees warmer then at the bottom and convection is actually the basis upon which a boiler works as rather than just running out of water cold water comes out instead because, within the tank, the hot water rises to the top and the cold water remains at the bottom so when all the hot stuff at the top is gone it moves on to the colder water.

What is convections purpose?
convections purpose it to "recycle" warm and cold air or materials
Why are radiation and conduction also convections example of method heat transfer?
It's "convection" (not convections),but those are the words used to describe the three methods of heat transfer.
Does convections currents produce the heat in the earths interior?
False.
Are winds examples of convection currents?
Winds are examples of convections currents
What is the mechanical layer of earth that has the most active convections currents?
The Earth's core.
What do convections do in the inner core and outer core?
They move the hot and colder parts around.
What happens during atmospheric convections?
Warm air rises, and cool air sinks.
Which is part of the convections cycle in Earth's atmosphere?
hot, less dense air rises
What is the low point of a sound wave (rare fractions) where the lowest air pressure occurs?
convections
What will happen to the convections currents in the mantle if Earth's interior eventually cools down?
the convection currents will stop
In what layer does plasticity and convection occur?
They occur in the upper mantle and the convections come from the inner core but travel to the upper mantle.
How do positions of the hot and cold water affect the speed of convections?
noting it works (in the science meaning; to cause a change) a lot.
