Why do scientists think the earths core contains iron?

Scientists think the Earth's core contains iron because of the planet's magnetic field. Iron is a magnetic material, and the Earth's magnetic field is generated by the movement of molten iron in the outer core. Additionally, seismic waves and the density of the Earth indicate a high concentration of iron in the core.


Why do you think scientists study earths interior?

Scientists study Earth's interior to better understand the planet's composition, structure, and dynamics. This helps in predicting natural disasters like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, as well as in understanding processes like plate tectonics and magnetic field generation. Studying the Earth's interior also provides insights into the planet's history and evolution.
