What else can I help you with?
What is the eaths softest layer?
The mantle is the softest layer of the Earth.
Explain what keeps the mantle from cooling down and becoming solid?
The mantle's heat is primarily maintained through the decay of radioactive elements within the Earth's core, which generates thermal energy that keeps the mantle molten. Additionally, heat from the core and the mantle's own internal heat contribute to maintaining the mantle's temperature and preventing it from cooling down and solidifying.
Which of these causes the lower mantle to remain solid despite high temperatures?
The lower mantle remains solid due to high pressure, which increases the melting point of minerals. The pressure at such depths is so immense that it keeps the minerals stable in a solid state despite the high temperatures.
Is mantle a solid or what?
it is a solid.
Is the mantle plasma?
No. The mantle is solid.
Is the lower mantle of the Earth a solid or liquid?
the lower mantle of earth is a solid
Is the earth a solid or a liquid?
Both. The upper mantle is solid and the lower mantle is liquid.
What are the parts of eart?
I hope u mean earth. The parts of earth , has a core, a mantle, and the crust. The core is made of solid nickel, the pressure keeps it solid. The mantle is made of molten rock and metals. The crust is made of basalt and continetal plates,. this is where we live on =]. hope this helps
Is mantle a gas liquid or a solid?
solid
Is the outer mantle solid?
yes it is solid
Is the mantle a solid liquide or gas?
solid
What the lower layer of the mantle is composed this material?
The lower layer of the mantle, known as the mesosphere, is primarily composed of solid silicate minerals rich in magnesium and iron, such as olivine and pyroxene. This region experiences high pressure and temperature, which keeps the materials solid despite their proximity to the molten outer core. The lower mantle plays a crucial role in Earth's geology, affecting mantle convection and plate tectonics.
