What is the thickest part of a camera lens?
It depends whether it's a concave or convex lens. If it's a convex lens - the thickest part is at the centre. With a concave lens, the thickest part is around the edge.
The crust is only what of earths thickness?

What is the earth's crust the thickest?
the area of of earths crust that is the thickest is the mantle.
What is the area of the Earth's crust?

What layer is the thickest of earths crust?
The answer is Continental crust.The Mantle is the thickest layer of the Earth. :)
Where is the crust the thickest on plate?
The crust is thickest on oceanic plates where the crust is typically around 5-10 km thick under the oceans. In contrast, continental crust is generally thicker, around 30-50 km thick, with some mountain ranges having crust that can be even thicker.
Which is thicker earths crust or lithosphere?
the lithosphere and the crust of the earth are the same lithosphere is another word for crust so the thickest is both of them.
Where is the thickest part of earth's crust found?
The thickest part of the Earth's crust is typically found beneath mountain ranges, where tectonic plates collide and push the crust upward, creating a thicker layer of rock. This thicker crust is known as continental crust and can be up to 70 km (43 miles) thick in places like the Himalayas.
The thickest part of the crust occurs in what?
Youngest mountain ranges
Which of earths layer has is thinnest?
The crust is the thinnest, followed by the outer core, inner core, and the mantle is the thickest.
Where is the crust the thickest the plate?
The crust is thickest beneath the mountains.
Are mountains the thickest part of earth's crust?
No, the thickest part of Earth's crust is found beneath mountain ranges where the crust can be folded and stacked to form thick sections, but the overall thickness of the crust can vary depending on the geologic setting. The crust is typically thinnest under ocean basins and thickest beneath mountain ranges.
What parts of earths structure combine to form lithosphere?
The layer just below Earth's crust is the mantle. It is the thickest layer, and is composed of flowing rock material. The solid upper part of the mantle joins with the crust to form the lithosphere
Where would crust be the thickest?
The crust is thickest under continents! The crust is thickest under Mount Everest, where it's approx. 65km deep
