Why is there so much more pressure exerted on the earths core than on the earths surface?

Pressure is the weight of an overlying column of material. The pressure at the core comes from 6400km of overlying rock, which is much denser than air

The possible source of earths magnetic core is?
The molten iron and medals inside the earths core are the reasons for the earths magnetic core.
Is there a bunny in the earths core?
no it is not true. there is solid iron and nickel in the Earths core
Earth's magnetic field results from the spinning of the?
The earths magnetic field results from deep in the earths core. Magnetic conduction from within the earths core is believed to be the cause of this.
What is the purpose of the earths outer core?
There is no "purpose"; the density of the materials in the outer core are less pressured and spin slower than the inner core. NOTE: the inner core spins faster than the outer, creating Earth's magnetic field.

Where energy on earths surface comes from?
The sun & the Earth's core.
How hot does the core of the earth get?
