How does the earths mantle differ from its crust?
Inner core: 2450 km thick Outer core: 2300 km thick Lower mantle: 2500 km thick Upper Mantle: 400 km thick continental crust: 30-70 km thick Oceanic Crust: 6 km thick
How thick is earth's mantle?
Very good question. Many people have been wondering this, actually. How thick is the Earth's mantle? Well, I did some research and found out that the Earth's mantle is about 1800 miles thick, or 2900 kilometers thick. It contains about 80 percent of the Earth's mass. Wow!
What part of the earth is 3000km thick?
mantle
Is the earths mantle 3000 kilometers?
yes it is 2893 kilometers thick
How thick is the earths mantle?
The thickness of the Earth's mantle is about 2900 km and it's upper boundary is about 100km deep. There is a really cool cutaway drawing available by using the Wikipedia link.
Why do people think that the mantle is best described as a 'very thick syrupy liquid?
The mantle is often described as a very thick syrupy liquid because it behaves like a solid over short periods of time but can flow very slowly over long periods of time. This unique property is known as plasticity. The mantle's ability to flow allows for the movement of tectonic plates on the Earth's surface.
What is the area of the earth That flows Like a thick liquid?
The mantle
What part of the mantle can flow like thick liquid?
The outer core of the mantle can be liquid.
What section heats the thick liquid found in the mantle?
The answer is the outer core.
It has an Area of rock that flows like a thick liquid?
It is Mantle or you can say Magma.
Is the mantle part of the earth a solid or liquid?
The mantle consists of molten rock. Therefore, it made up of a very thick, hot liquid referred to as magma.
What part of mantle can flow like a thick liquid?
None! Unless you mean the core. The outer core is liquid.
Which part of the earth's mantle can flow like a thick liquid?
The asthenosphere, located in the upper part of the mantle, can flow like a thick liquid due to high temperatures and pressures that allow for the movement of rock over long periods of time.
How the thin outer crust is floating on the thick liquid mantle causing the crust to move and form a divergent plate boundary?
how the thin outer crust is floating on the thick liquid mantle, causing the crust to move and form a divergent plate boundary
What is the prepositional phrase in The partly melted rock of the mantle flows slowly like a very thick liquid?
"of the mantle" is the prepositional phrase.
What is the thick rocky layer around earths core?
The core of the earth is surrounded by the mantle.The earth's core is called the inner core. Just outside that is the outer core, and it is liquid. Outside the liquid outer core is the mantle.
What part of the mantle can flow like a thick liquid?
The asthenosphere is the part of the mantle that can flow like a thick liquid. It is a semi-fluid layer located beneath the lithosphere, where convection currents occur, causing tectonic plate movement.
