Which of the following are all internal sources of Earth's energy that help drive convection currents below the crust?


A. Kinetic energy from the earth's rotation
B. thermal energy produced by gravity
C. thermal energy from decaying atoms
D. light energy produced in earth's geosphere
E. light energy produced in earth's crust​

Answer 1

Answer:

D. light energy produced in earth's geosphere

Explanation:

Earth's internal heat budget is very important to Earth's thermal history. The heat flow from the earth's interior to the surface is estimated to be 47 ± 2 terawatts (TW) and originates from two main sources

Answer 2

The internal source of Earth's energy that helps drive convection currents below the crust is D. light energy produced in the earth's geosphere.

Convection current refers to the current that is formed as a result of differential heating. It should be noted that lighter warm material rises while the heavier cool material sinks.

The light energy that is produced in the earth's geosphere is necessary for driving convection currents below the crust. Energy is transferred through the oceans and the geosphere by convection.
