how thick is the inner core and outer core together
Combined the inner and outer cores are 3500 km thick.
No. It behaves as a solid.
The outer core of the Earth is a liquid layer about 2,260 kilometers thick composed of iron and nickel which lies above the Earth's solid inner core and below its mantle.
No. It behaves like a solid.
The core of the earth is surrounded by the mantle.The earth's core is called the inner core. Just outside that is the outer core, and it is liquid. Outside the liquid outer core is the mantle.
Inner core
The inner core - the centre of earth - is solid and about 780 miles (1,250 km) thick. The inner core may have a temperature up to about 13,000°F (7,200°C = 7,500 K), which is hotter than the surface of the Sun. The inner core (which has a radius of about 750 miles (1,228 km) is solid. The outer core is so hot that the metal is always molten. The outer core is about 1370 miles (2,200 km) thick. Because the earth rotates, the outer core spins around the inner core and that causes the earth's magnetism. The outer core is in a liquid state and is about 1,400 miles (2,260 km) thick.
