When mantle rocks near the earth’s core are heated, they become less dense than the cooler, upper mantle rocks. these warmer rocks rise, while the cooler rocks sink. this movement of warmer and cooler mantle rocks creates pockets of circulation within the mantle which are thought to be the force behind the movement of tectonic plates over the asthenosphere. what method of heat transfer is being described here?

Why does the equilibrium position of the spring change when a mass is added to the spring? will the mass oscillate around the new equilibrium position of the spring or the previous position without a mass attached to the spring? if the equilibrium position of the spring changes by 20 cm (assuming no initial mass) when a mass is added to the spring with constant 4.9 kg/s^2, what is the mass of the object attached to the spring?
