How do convection currents influence plate tectonics

Physics
1 answer:
jarptica [38.1K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer and Explanation:

  • Convection happens when particles with a great deal of warmth vitality in a fluid or gas move and replace particles with less warmth vitality.  
  • Lighter (less thick), warm material ascents while heavier (progressively thick) cool material sinks. It is this development that makes course examples known as convection flows in the environment, in water, and in the mantle of Earth.  
  • Huge amount of pressure and heat inside the earth causes the hot magma to stream in convection ebbs and flows. These flows cause the development of the structural plates that make up the world's outside.  
  • Plates at our planet's surface move in view of the extreme warmth in the Earth's center that causes liquid shake in the mantle layer to move.
  • It moves in an example considered a convection cell that structures when warm material ascents, cools, and in the long run sink down. As the chilled material sinks off, it is warmed and rises once more.

What are the four forms of matter that waves can travel through?
podryga [215]

Answer:

<em><u>It can be a solid, liquid, gas</u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u>plasma</u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u>etc</u></em><em><u>. When waves travel through a medium, the particles of the medium are not carried along with </u></em><em><u>the</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>wave</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>For example, water waves have to travel in water. Sound waves need a solid, a liquid or a gas to travel in.</u></em>

True or false: (a) Maxwell's equations apply only to fields that are constant over time.(b) The wave equation can be derived fro
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

(a) False

(b) True

(c) True

(d) True

(e) True

(f) True

Explanation:

(a) Maxwell's equations not only applies to constant fields but it applies to both the fields, i.e., Time variant field as well as Time Invariant field.

(b) We make use of the Modified form of the Ampere's law and Faraday's Law to derive the wave equation.

(c) Electromagnetic waves contains both the electric and magnetic fields and these fields oscillates at an angle of 90^{\circ}C to the direction of wave propagation.

(d) In free space both the electric and magnetic fields are in phase while considering electromagnetic waves.

(e) In free space or vacuum, the expression for the speed of light in terms of electric and magnetic field is given as:

c = \frac{E}{B}

Thus the ratio of the magnitudes of the electric and magnetic field vectors are equal to the speed of light in free space.

(f) In free space or in vacuum the energy density of the electromagnetic wave is divided equally in both the fields and hence are equal.
