Where do Earth’s convection currents occur
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
Convection currents occur in the magma drive plate tectonics. Here heat is generated from the radioactive decay of elements in the  interior of  the Earth, creating magma in the asthenosphere.

ratelena [41]

Answer:

1.84 kJ  (kilojoules)

Explanation:

A specific heat of 0.46 J/g Cº means that it takes 0.46 Joules of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of iron by 1 Cº.

If we want to heat 50 g of iron from 20° C to 100° C, we can make the following calculation:

Heat = (specific heat)*(mass)*(temp change)

Heat = (0.46 J/g Cº)*(50g)*(100° C -  20° C)

[Note how the units cancel to yield just Joules]

Heat = 1840 Joules, or 1.84 kJ

[Note that the number is positive:  Energy is added to the system.  If we used cold iron to cool 50g of 100° C water, the temperature change would be (Final - Initial) or (20° C - 100° C).  The number is -1.84 kJ:  the negative means heat was removed from the system (the iron).

The radius of a planet is 2400 km, and the acceleration due to gravity at its surface is 3.6 m/s2.
kiruha [24]

Answer:

3.1\cdot10^{23}\:\mathrm{kg}

Explanation:

We can use Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation to solve this problem:

g_P=G\frac{m}{r^2}., where g_P is acceleration due to gravity at the planet's surface, G is gravitational constant 6.67\cdot 10^{-11}, m is the mass of the planet, and r is the radius of the planet.

Since acceleration due to gravity is given as m/s^2, our radius should be meters. Therefore, convert 2400 kilometers to meters:

2400\:\mathrm{km}=2,400,000\:\mathrm{m}.

Now plugging in our values, we get:

3.6=6.67\cdot10^{-11}\frac{m}{(2,400,000)^2},

Solving for m:

m=\frac{2,400,000^2\cdot3.6}{6.67\cdot 10^{-11}},\\m=\fbox{$3.1\cdot10^{23}\:\mathrm{kg}$}.
