Which layer on earths interior is the thinnest and What is the density of that layer?
The Earth's crust is the thinnest layer, ranging from about 5-70 km thick. The average density of the Earth's crust is around 2.7-3.0 g/cm³.
Earths thin rocky outer layer is its .?
crust
Is the density low or high for the oceanic crust?
The density of oceanic crust is generally higher than continental crust due to its composition of mostly basaltic rock. This higher density causes oceanic crust to be thinner and denser, leading to its subduction beneath continental crust at convergent plate boundaries.
What is the density of oceanic crust?
it is 3.0 g.\cm to the third power. Your welcome.
What is another word for earths outer surface?
Another word for Earth's outer surface is "crust."
What is the denisty of the earths crust?
POP DENSITY
What portion of the earths crust is more dense oceanic or contenintal?
Oceanic crust is denser than continental crust. Oceanic crust has a density of about 3 g/cm^3, while continental crust has a lower density of about 2.7 g/cm^3.
What causes the pressure to increase as you go deeper below the earths crust?
Because the density of the force increases.
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.
Which layer on earths interior is the thinnest and What is the density of that layer?
The Earth's crust is the thinnest layer, ranging from about 5-70 km thick. The average density of the Earth's crust is around 2.7-3.0 g/cm³.
What do you think subduction means?
subduction is when a piece of the earths crust slides back into the mantle due to density differences
Why does the earths crust stay the same size?
The amount of crust present on Earth always stays the same. The amount of crust descending into the mantle is balanced by the amount of crust formed at mid-ocean ridges.
What are earths compositional layers in order of increasing density?
The Earth's compositional layers in order of increasing density are the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core. The crust is the least dense layer, while the inner core is the most dense layer.
What is the size of the earths crust?
The Earths crust is approximately 650 km deep.
List the layers in earths interior in order of least to greatest density?
The layers of Earth's interior from least to greatest density are: Crust Mantle Outer core Inner core
What causes the earths crust to rise and fall?
The sudden vibration in the plates inside the crust causes the earths crust to rise & fall.
What is under the earths surface and in the earths crust?
mantle
