What is the upper mantle's depth?
2 in.
What is the thickness of the core the mantle and the crust?
From the information I am providing here you can work this out.Inner core: depth of 5,150-6,370 kilometresOuter core: depth of 2,890-5,150 kilometresLower mantle: depth of 650-2,890 kilometresTransition region: depth of 400-650 kilometresUpper mantle: depth of 10-400 kilometresOceanic crust: depth of 0-10 kilometres, Continental crust: depth of 0-75 kilometres
How is the temperature and pressure in the Earth's mantle related to the depth of the mantle?
The degree of temperature and exertion of pressure by the molten materials (magma) within the mantle is directly proportional to its depth. This means that, the deeper you go down the mantle the higher the degree of temperature and pressure exerted.
What is the thickest part of the outermost layers?
The crust is the thickest under mountain ranges, up to 70 miles. Average depth of continental crust is 27 miles.
What is compression in the earth's mantle?
By the depth of the mantle the only compressive force that is acting is gravity (the weight if the crust above).
Where on earth is the mantle?
The mantle isn't on the Earth, it is in the Earth. On land the uppermost part of the mantle is 15 to 45 miles beneath the surface. It extends down to the core-mantle boundary at a depth of nearly 1800 miles.
How many percent of the earth's volume is occupied by the mantle?
15
Where does Cooler older oceanic lithosphere sink?
Down into the mantle. At a depth of about 600 miles they become undetectable seismographicaly and are believed to have melted back into the mantle rock.

What is the depth of upper mantle?

How far down is the mantle?
I heard this from another page on the internet. If you dig 5 miles down starting from the deepest part of the pacific ocean, you will hit the mantle.
What is the thickness of the core the mantle and the crust?

What part of Earth's mantle is near the outer core?
The Earth comprises:-Continental crust: depth of 0-75 kilometres: Oceanic crust: depth of 0-10 kilometresUpper mantle: depth of 10-400 kilometresTransition region: depth of 400-650 kilometresLower mantle: depth of 650-2,890 kilometresD" layer: depth of 2,700-2,890 kilometresOuter core: depth of 2,890-5,150 kilometresInner core: depth of 5,150-6,370 kilometres
