Covection is a method of transfer of heat from one region to another. It occurs in fluids ( liquids and gases) but not in solids. It involves the actual movement of the fluid molecules in the form of kinetic energy such that as one molecule hits the other, the kinetic energy is transferred thereby transferring the heat.

What does a convection wave look like?
Convection waves are invisible: You can't see them.
What are some examles of convection?
A convection cell churning near mid-ocean ridges.
How is density involved in convection?
In convection less molecules occupy large volume as in air to reduce the density.
Is NOT an example of convection?
Radiation
What is the idea of convection?
Hi! Basically convection is the transfer of thermal energy through fluids. Examples would be air and water.
What is the mantles cycle that involves heating rising cooling and sinking?
convection current
Which geochemical cycle involves mantle convection?
Tectonic
Which process involves mass movement within a substance?
Diffusion involves mass movement of particles within a substance, where particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration to achieve equilibrium.
What is convection bake?
Convection bake involves cooking in an oven that has fans circulating air all around it. Convection ovens cook food faster than conventional ovens.
Does convection involve a moving liquid or gas?
I believe it involves a moving gas...
Heat transfer that involves mass movement is?
Convection is the process whereby heat is transferred by the mass movement of molecules from one place to another.
What type of heat transfer involves the movement of liquids or gases?
That's called "convection".
What is the type of heat transfer that involves movement of molecules from one part of the material to another?
Convection.
Does convection involves cool gas rising toward the solar surface and hot gas sinking into the interior?
yes it does.
What is the process where matter loses heat energy?
I believe it is called "Cooling" and it involves some or all of - radiation, conduction and convection.
Cooling of the human body using Convection?
Convection involves heat loss in direct proportion to the amount of air or water the pass over the surface. Moving air cools faster than stagnant air.
Which of the following methods of heat transfer involves the actual physical movement of high temperature molecules to region of low temperature?
"convection"
