What causes the high tide & low tide on Earth?Convection from the Earth’s magmaMoons gravitation force/pull on the waterEarth being tilted on its axisForce of the stars (P.3.1.) What is conduction heat transfer?Heat transfer through direct contact using a piece of metal as a conductorHeat transfer in movements of waves or currents through liquids or gasses Heat transfer through electromagnetic wave motion through solids, liquids or gassesCampfire waves radiating through ashes from the wood creating subtemperanious materials in the Earth’s atmosphere(P.3.3.) What makes a good insulator?Metal materials that use just one type of atomMaterials that use many different types of atomsMaterials that are used to make microwavesMaterials made of metal(P.3.2.)

Why do the tides change from high tide to low tide?Convection from the Earth’s magmaMoons gravitational pull/force on the waterEarth being tilted on its axisForce of the stars (P.3.1.) What is Convection heat transfer?Heat transfer through direct contact using a piece of mental as a conductorHeat transfer in movements of waves or currents through liquids or gassesHeat transfer through electromagnetic wave motion through solids, liquids, or gassesCampfire waves radiating through ashes from the wood creating subtemperanious materials in the Earth’s atmosphere ................
