What else can I help you with?
What are the conditions found in the outer core of earth?
The outer core is under great pressure and heat
Is earth's outer core under low pressure?
The Earth's outer core is under high pressure due to the immense weight of the overlying materials. This pressure is caused by the solid inner core and the many layers of rock and molten material above the outer core.
Is the inner core under extreme pressure?
Yes, the inner core of the Earth is under extreme pressure due to the weight of the Earth's layers above it. This pressure is what helps maintain the solid state of the inner core despite its high temperatures.
What is solid rock and under pressure that is constantly moving?
The earth's core.
Earth's core is under great pressure due to?
the tremendous weight of the layers of rock and metal lying above it. The high temperatures and extreme pressure conditions within the core are caused by the gravitational forces acting on the mass of the Earth.
Is earth atmosphere under pressure?
Because there is gravity, that pulls stuff to the core.
Can man live on the core of the Earth?
No. The core of Earth is heated to thousands of degrees and is under millions of times the pressure exerted by air at sea level.
The inner core is under so much pressure it does not move like a liquid it does what?
The inner core of the Earth is under extreme pressure, causing it to remain solid despite its high temperature. This solid inner core is surrounded by the liquid outer core, which is responsible for generating the Earth's magnetic field through its convective flows.
Which layer of the Earth is believed to have the most nickel?
The Earth's core, specifically the outer core, is believed to contain the most nickel. This is based on studies of the Earth's composition and the behavior of nickel under high pressure and temperature conditions found in the core.
Do diamonds come from the earth's inner core?
No, diamonds are formed in the Earth's mantle, which is located beneath the Earth's crust. They are brought to the surface through volcanic eruptions. The inner core of the Earth is composed of solid iron and nickel.
What happens to the temperature and pressure as you get closer the the earth's core?
Temperature and pressure increase massively from the Earth's surface to the centre of the Earth. At the inner core, the pressure is so great that iron is solid, even at such high temperatures.
Why is the core solid if it is the hottest layer of earth?
The inner core is under enormous pressure, which raises the temperature needed to melt it above its actual temperature.
