Earth differentiated due to the intense heat generated from the decay of radioactive elements, the impact of planetesimals during its formation, and the gravitational compression of materials. This process caused denser materials, like iron and nickel, to sink toward the center, forming the core, while lighter materials, such as silicates, rose to create the mantle and crust. As a result, Earth developed distinct layers with varying compositions and properties, leading to the formation of a stable, geologically active planet capable of supporting life.
Features on Earth radiate warmth at different frequencies, which show up as different colors on Landsat images.
Energy which is a result of an object's height above the earth is potential energy.
Earth was created as a result of the big bang. Debris from rocks, dust and ice as a result of the bang were squeezed together by gravity, forming spherical planets.

They chiefly cause earthquakes, and could also result to landslides and tsunamis.

how can you fe
The ozone depletion would cause UV to enter the earth. It would result in various diseases.
The Earth's seasons are not caused by variations in the distance between the Earth and the Sun. Instead, they are a result of the tilt of the Earth's axis as it orbits the Sun.
No. Magnetism has nothing to do with it. It's strictly the result of gravity.
No. While earthquakes can cause sections of the surface to move up or down, the net result is that Earth maintains the same size.
UV rays will enter the earth. They cause fatal problems in living organisms.
The Sun does have a gravitational force. As a result of this force, Earth stays in orbit around the Sun.
The Earth's plates were caused by natural reasons and cannot be explained. Scientists think that the plates were formed as a result of Earth first expanding as it was heated in the Great Bombardment and then shrinking as it cooled.
Yes, gravity does cause Earth's land to bulge slightly towards the Moon. This phenomenon is a result of the Moon's gravitational pull, which creates tidal forces that cause the Earth's surface to deform. As a result, there are slight bulges on the side of the Earth facing the Moon, as well as on the opposite side, due to the gravitational interactions between the Earth and the Moon. This effect contributes to the tidal movements observed in oceans and, to a lesser extent, on land.
they are both somewhat the same. environmental science just a form of earth science
