the pressure is making it behave in a solid form
The pressure is higher in the inner core.
yes
No gas. A solid surrounded by liquid. All metal.
In liquid state as the temperature is higher the atoms or molecules are at random motion with greater speed. Hence the field coverage of protons will be wide and there will be repulsive force dominant. Hence as we compress the liquid this repulsive force becomes more as the distance gets reduced and so liquids generally are incompressible.In fact you can, (depending on the temp) but the conditions are frequently "unearthly". See papers on the possible core of Jupiter.add. The inner core of the earth has a temperature about the same as that of the surface of the Sun - 57 000 deg C. But the inner core is solid because of the great pressure. Moving outwards from the core, we next meet the outer core, essentially the same extreme temperature, but it is liquid now because of the reduced pressure.
S waves can not travel through liquids, the outer core is a liquid, so the S waves can not travel through the outer core. You can also determine that since the outer core is all around the inner core, that the S waves can no travel through the inner core as well.
In inner core is solid while the outer core is liquid. This is because the inner core, being deeper, is under more pressure.
the inner core is solid because of tremendous pressure the outer core is liquid due to less pressure and heat
It is because the outer core is not under enough pressure to be solid, so it is liquid even though it has a composition similar to that of the inner core.
The inner core is solid due to pressure. With less pressure on it, the outer core is liquid.
the pressure is making it behave in a solid form
Yes, although the inner core is hotter than the outer core, there is more pressure. This pressure is enough to keep the inner core solid.
acts like a solid
the inner core is solid , the outer core has less pressure, so it is liquid
The pressure at the inner core is so enormous that iron, and the rest of the inner core remains a solid.
pressure
There are two parts of the core: Inner and Outer. The outer core is liquid, the inner solid. The inner core is solid due to the pressure exerted on it, despite the excessively high temperature.
The reason that the inner core is a solid and the outter core is a liquid is because the inner core is the greatest amount of pressure from the other layers. Why the outter core is a liquid is because inside of it is metal that just flows around in there.
