How thick is the meosphere?
about 19 miles or 30 km.
How thick is the crust in km?
The crust is about 30-50 kilometers, or 20-30 miles, thick. The thickness varies depending on the area of earth one is in.
Which is similar to a batholith but has less than 100 square kilometers exposed?
A batholith is a pluton exposed across more than 100 square km of Earth's surface. An average batholith is about 10 km thick, but can be up to 20 km thick. A stock is very similar to a batholith, but with less than 100 square km exposed.
What are the characteristics of the crust?
i know that its 30 km thick and its made of soft material
How thick is he stratosphere?
The earth's stratosphere is about 32 km thick.
How thick is earths crust?
The continental crust, (where all the land is) is generally around 30 km (20 mi) to 50 km (30 mi) thick. The oceanic crust (the bottom of the sea) is roughly 5 km (3 mi) to 10 km (6 mi) thick.
How thick is the meosphere?
about 19 miles or 30 km.
What are two way the continental crust and the oceanic crust are different?
the oceanic crust is thinner, generally5-8 killometers thick, and is made of basalt, but the continental crust is an average of 30 km and is made of granite

How thick is the earths continental crust?
The continental crust is about 25 to 70 kilometers thick. The average is about 50 kilometers.
What is the crusts thickness?
There are two types of crust's. I dont know which one you are talking about, but it is probably the continental crust. The other type of crust is the Oceanic crust. The first continental crust is about 4-7 miles (6-11 km) thick and mainly consists of heavy rocks, like basalt. The Continental crust is thicker than the Oceanic crust, about 19 miles(30 km) thick. It is mainly made up of light material like granite.
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 the the troposphere?
Its 10 km thick.
