Explanation / Answer

Conduction is the process by which heat or electricity is directly transmitted through a substance.

Convection is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise and colder denser material to sink under the influence of gravity which consequently results in transfer of heat.

Viscosity is the state of being thick sticky and semi fluid in consistency due to internal friction.

Seismic tomography is collecting signals from many different earthquakes recorded at many different seismic stations to see all parts of earth.

As per Chegg’s policy we only adviced to solve only the first four parts of a questioner, please post the remaining questions as a different questioner. Thanks
