How is the composition of a meteorite relevant to finding out the composition of the earths core?
Since the belief is that the Earth was formed by an enormous number of collisions of meteors, the iron would have collected at the core due to its mass. Many meteorites are about the same age as the solar system so they may resemble the material at the core.
Which statement correctly describes the density of Earth's mantle compared to the density of Earths core?
The mantle is less dense than the core but more dense than the crust.
What best describes the best relationship between the inner core outer core mantle lithosphere and asthenosphere?
The relationship between the inner core outer core-mantle lithosphere and asthenosphere is that the coolest layers are farthest from the core.
Can you drill into earths core?
no
What is the earths core similar to the Moon's core core?
i believe mantle rocks from earth to core .
What kind of meteorites are analogous in composition to Earths Core?
Simple answer: iron meteorites.
What is the list of the composition of the earths outer core?
silicon, aluminum, calcium, sodium and potassium
Which changes occur in the composition of the earths layers from the surface to the core?
material is hotter and denser
What are the earths layers of rock classified by?
Earth's layers classified by their composition and their physical properties.
Does liquid iron best describes the inner core?
No. It best describes the outer core. The inner core is made up of solid iron.
What changes occur in the composition of the earths interior layers as you move toward the core?
the material is hotter & denser
What changes occur in the composition of the earths interior layer as you move towards the core?
the material is hotter & denser
What best describes Neptune core?
nothing
Are you closer to the earths core or moons surface when standing at sea level?
