What is a layer of molten iron and nickel that surrounds the inner core of earth?
The layer you are referring to is the outer core. It is a liquid layer made up of molten iron and nickel that surrounds the solid inner core of the Earth. The movement of this molten outer core is believed to generate Earth's magnetic field.
What is the layer of molten iron and nickel that surrounds the inner core?
This is called the outer core.
What layer of the earth is made of molten iron and nickel that surrounds the inner core?
The outer core of the Earth is made of molten iron and nickel. It lies beneath the mantle and surrounds the solid inner core. This molten layer is responsible for generating the Earth's magnetic field through convection currents.
What layer of earth is hot rock?
The mantle is the hot rock.
What is the partially molten layer of the mantle called?
The partially molten layer of the mantle is called the asthenosphere. This zone is partially molten and allows tectonic plates to move on top of it.
Is Earth's inner core surrounded by a liquid outer core?
Yes earths inner core is a dense ball of metal earths outer core is a layer of molten (melted) metal
What is the densest layer of the earth?
The densest layer of the earth is the inner core.
What is the earths outer core?
The outer core is a liquid that is in between the inner core and mantle. It is 2,000km thick.
Is Earth's innermost layer?
The earths innermost layer is the Inner Core.
What is the earths deeppest layer?
Its spinning, molten, liquid, iron core.
What is the layer just above the earths center?
The layer just above the Earth's center is the outer core. It is composed of molten iron and nickel, and it surrounds the solid inner core. The outer core is responsible for generating the Earth's magnetic field.
What layer of earth is made up of hot molten rocks?
The outer core is the only molten layer of the Earth. == ==
Is the asthenosphere the partially molten layer of earths core?
The asthenosphere is partially molten; however, it is an interior layer which is separate from the Earth's inner and outer core. In fact, the asthenosphere is located directly under the lithosphere (the brittle outer shell of Earth), extending only a few hundred miles down from the surface.
What are the three sections of the earth?
The three main sections of the Earth are the crust (outer layer), mantle (middle layer), and core (inner layer). The crust is solid rock that forms the Earth's surface, the mantle is a semi-solid layer made up of molten rock and minerals, and the core is composed of a solid inner core surrounded by a liquid outer core.
What are earths main layer?
Crust, mantle, and inner core.
What is a layer of molten iron and nickel that surrounds the inner core of earth called?
The layer of molten iron and nickel that surrounds the inner core of the Earth is called the outer core. This layer is responsible for generating the Earth's magnetic field through the movement of molten metals.
What is a layer of molten iron and nickel that surrounds the inner core of earth?
The layer you are referring to is the outer core. It is a liquid layer made up of molten iron and nickel that surrounds the solid inner core of the Earth. The movement of this molten outer core is believed to generate Earth's magnetic field.
