Question

Which statement best describes how energy transfer within earths atmosphere 10 affect a weather condition? A)during radiation objects directly transfer heat to each other which affects the air temperature. B) during radiation electric magnetic waves transfer heat and light energy which affects the air temperature. C) during convection objects directly transfer heat to each other which affects the amount of precipitation. D) during convection electric magnetic waves transfer heat and light energy which affects the amount of precipitation

Answer 1

Answer: D

Explanation: During convection, heat is being transferred between substances in direct contact with each other by electro magnetic waves.

Using the molten rock to explain the convection in the earth relative to how if affects the weather condition. Here, the rock is in a molten state, rising up from the bottom of the mantle after becoming hotter and less dense from the heat of the earth's core. As the rock loses heat into the earth's crust, it become cooler and more dense,sinking back to the core. These constantly circulating cells of hotter and cooler molten rock help to heat the earth's surface.
