No, the Earth's core is not solid. It is primarily composed of molten iron and nickel, which gives it a liquid state.
crust = solid mantle = solid soft enough to flow though outer core = liquid iron inner core = solid iron
The Earth's core is primarily composed of iron and nickel. The inner core is believed to be solid, while the outer core is thought to be in a liquid state. The outer core makes up about 30% of the Earth's core, while the inner core makes up the remaining 70%.
The layer just above the Earth's center is the outer core. It is composed of molten iron and nickel, and it surrounds the solid inner core. The outer core is responsible for generating the Earth's magnetic field.
The earth's inner core is 3160 kilometers beneath the earths surface. The inner core is a solid ball of nickel-iron alloy.
the 2 main variables which decide whether an element or compound is a solid, liquid, or gas, are temperature and pressure.Iron melts at 1538 degrees only when it is pure (which the core is not) and under atmospheric pressure. The iron in the earths inner core is under pressure equivalent to many thousands (if not millions) times that of atmospheric pressure, so it exists as a solid.
no it is not true. there is solid iron and nickel in the Earths core
The solid inner and liquid outer core.
the state of the earth's core is solid and it is very hot
a solid ball of iron
the outer core is liquid; the inner core is solid
The inner core Is solid and the outer core in liquid
So far as science can deduce, it must be a solid.
The Inner Core is a liquid. Outer core: solid mantel: inbetween crust: solid
hot solid
No it is liquid
the inner core
Yes the refraction path of the p-wave tells us that the earths inner core is solid.
