Why are there so many alveoli in the lungs? How do convection currents lead to atmospheric circulation? Why do liquids flow? How are surface currents and thermohaline circulation similar? Why does pressure decrease as temperature decreases?
Why isn't there a single convection cell in each hemisphere? Can inner shell electrons take part in conduction by any method? Why two thin blankets are warmer than a single blanket of double the thickness? Why in Electromagnetic wave electric and magnetic fields are per...
(海的)Gulf Stream,the Polar Maritime air from the North,the Arctic Maritime,the Polar Continental,and the Tropical Continental.There's also fast flowing air in Jet Streams.Air goes around in convection currents in Hadley Cells and in Ferrel Cells.Because the British Isles can get weather ...
Mantle dynamics, gravity, and Earth's rotation takenaltogether causes the plate movements. However, convectional currents are the general thought for the motion. What are the causes and effects of plate tectonics? Plate motions causemountains to rise where plates push together, or converge, and co...
+ = 219 + 369-588 W The heat transfer rate in reality will be higher because of the natural convec tion currents that are likely to occur in the air space between the plates (b) When the air space between the plates is evacuated, there will...
There are three prevailing wind belts associated with these cells:the trade winds, the prevailing westerlies, and the polar easterlies(Fig. What is an example of polar easterlies? Fairbanks, to use your example, is far enough North that the prevailing winds are polar easterlies. The southern ...
The drawing shows the dynamo mechanism that creates Earth's magnetic field: convection currents of fluid metal in Earth's outer core, which are driven by heat flow from the inner core, organized into rolls by the Coriolis force, create circulating electric currents, which generate the magnetic ...
What are the causes of plate movement? Scientists have theorized three mechanisms that cause plate movement on Earth. These three mechanisms are thermal convection, ridge push, and slab pull. What are the two main factors that cause the movement of tectonic plates? There are two main factors th...
Since the early recognition of mantle convection, it was proposed that descending currents would tend to leave some of their denser constituents at the base of the mantle while less dense components rose to form the crust (Runcorn, 1962a, Runcorn, 1962b). The heavy elements, in particular Fe...
Why are there no tides in the Mediterranean Sea? Why are convection currents important? Why is a nautical mile different from a mile? How do waves affect coastal erosion? What are seismic dampers and why are they important? What causes deep currents?
