What apart from iron is the center of the earth made from?
While the Earth's core may be a mixture of different magnetic materials, it is made primarily of iron. Scientists know this from the velocity at which seismic waves travel through the core of the Earth.
What physical property causes earth's core to be made up of heavier elements including metals such as iron and earth's crust to be made of lighter elements such as silicon?
Density.
What is the physical state of matter for the inner core?
There are many different inner cores. It really depends which one you are talking about because they are all made up of different things. the Earth's inner core is made up of magma and various different chemiclas found on the Periodic table of Elements.
Layer of the Earth made mostly of iron.?
Inner core, which is also the innermost region of the Earth.
The earths core is made of?
The Inner (solid) and Outter (liquid) Core are made up of Nickel and Iron.
What elements make up two sections of the core?
The Earth's core consists primarily of two sections: the outer core and the inner core. The outer core is composed mainly of liquid iron and nickel, along with lighter elements such as sulfur and oxygen. In contrast, the inner core is solid and primarily made up of iron and nickel, with some lighter elements potentially present. These elements contribute to the core's temperature, pressure, and dynamic processes, including the generation of the Earth's magnetic field.
Why do the moon and the earth have such different densities?
Because the core of the Moon dis not made of Iron like the Earth's is.
Is the core of the earth made of limestone?
No. Earth's core is made of iron and nickel.
What solid iron is the earth made up of?
The Earth's inner core is mostly made up of solid iron due to the immense pressure within the planet that can keep iron solid even at high temperatures. The outer core is liquid iron, and the Earth's mantle and crust are composed of silicate rocks.
What is Earth's air like?
Earth's air is a gas that is made up of different types of elements.
How do scientists know that the Earth's core is made of a different material?
Scientists infer that the Earth's core is made of a different material from seismic waves generated by earthquakes. The behavior of these waves as they travel through the Earth's interior suggests that the core is composed of iron and nickel, based on its density and the way the waves travel through it. Additionally, the behavior of magnetic fields around the Earth supports this conclusion.
Is the structure of the earth and what the earth is made of the same?
No, the structure of the Earth refers to its internal layers (crust, mantle, outer core, inner core), while what the Earth is made of generally encompasses elements like iron, oxygen, silicon, and nickel. The composition of Earth's layers differs based on the distribution of these elements, leading to variations in density and physical properties.
