Ryan It’s “Maths” not Math. ? I’ve never understood why Americans call it math. ??
You are a brilliant lecturer
There are three main sources of heat in the deep earth: (1) heat from when the planet formed and accreted, which has not yet been lost; (2) frictional heating, caused by denser core material sinking to the center of the planet; and (3) heat from the decay of radioactive elements.
Why is this more compelling and easier to comprehend and understand after I've toked on a number for a bit?!?!
