Where do Earth’s convection currents occur

Physics

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.

Answer:

In a circuit ,<u> VOLTAGE </u>can be said to be the "source" or the "push of electrons". This push then creates what is known as a <u> CURRENT , </u>which is the flow of electric charge through the circuit. This flow can the slowed down or restricted by <u>RESISTOR </u>, and this is also what can be harnessed in order to use electric <u>ENERGY </u>.

Explanation:

Voltage:

It is the 'push' that causes charges to move in a wire or other electrical conductor, also it is a Source input to the electric circuit.

Measured in Volts.

Current:

An electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge from a point or through a region.

Measured in Ampere.

Resistor:

Resistor is used to resist the flow of charge or to resist the current called as Resistance.

Measured in Ohms.

Electric Energy:

Electrical energy is a form of energy resulting from the flow of electric charge.

Measured in Joules.

A 0.25-kg ball sits on the roof of a building that is 10 meters tall. Find the GPE. (Gravity = 9.8 on Earth)
Tasya [4]

Gravitational potential energy = mgh or mass times acceleration due to gravity times the height

Here the mass is 0.25kg, the height is 10m, and gravity is 9.8m/s^2 so...

GPE = (0.25)(10)(9.8)

GPE = 24.5 J

When a jet lands on an aircraft carrier, a hook on the tail of the plane grabs a wire that quickly brings the plane to a halt be
Veronika [31]
The problem seems to be incomplete because there is no question. However, from the problem description, the logical question is to find he acceleration needed by the jet to land on the airplane carrier. The working equation would be:

2ad = v₂² - v₁²
Since the jet stops, v₂ = 0. Substituting the values:
2(a)(95 m) = 0² - [(240 km/h)(1000 m/1 km)(1h/3600 s)]²
Solving for a,
<em>a = -23.39 m/s² (the negative sign indicates that the jet is decelerating)</em>
