∙ 13y ago
The outer core of the Earth begins at a depth of 1790 miles (2881 km) and extends to 3160 miles (5086 km) to its boundary with the inner core.
The solid inner core extends from 3160 miles (5150 km) to 3977 miles (6400 km) below the surface.
The center point of the Earth lies at an average depth of 3977 miles (6400 km) from the surface.

∙ 14y agoThe distance from the Earth's surface to the outer core is 2900 km.
The crust itself is between 3 & 80 km thick depending on the exact location.
As such the distance from the outer core to the base of the crust is between 2820 km and 2897 km.

∙ 16y agowe know that it is approximately 25,000 miles around the earth therefore 25,000 divide by pie 3.1416 divide by 2 = 3,978. Answer is approximately 3,978 miles to the earths core

What is the earths core like?
No. The inner core of Earth is made of a solid nickel-iron alloy. The outer core is made of liquid nickel and iron.
What materials make up the earth surface?
What materials make up the earth's surface?
What is the distance of the inner core?
The earth's inner core is 3160 kilometers beneath the earths surface. The inner core is a solid ball of nickel-iron alloy.
What part of the model represent the outer core of the earth?
the surface of the earth.
Is the core mantle crust or the surface the hottest part of the Earth?
The inner core would be the hottest layer of the Earth.
What is the distance fom the core of the Earth to the surface of the Earth?
~2,900 km
What is the distance from the core of the Earth to the surface of the Earth?
The radius of the Earth is 6378.1 kilometers or about 3961.3 miles
How many miles is it through the Earth's core?
I'm not sure what exactly you're asking, but the distance from the Earth's surface at the equator, through the two cores (the outer core and the inner core), to the center of the Earth is approximately 3963 miles.
What is the size of the earth's core in miles?
I am not sure as to what exactly you are asking, but when we say the distance from the Earth's surface at the equator, through the two cores (outer and inner core), to the center of the Earth is approximately 3,963 miles.
What is the Earth's core to the Earth's surface?
Starting from the core, here is a list of how to get to the surface (crust): core (middle), mantle (biggest), crust (surface, ground, rock)
What is located benith the surface of the earth?
the earth core (outer core)
What layer of earth is 4000 miles below Earth's surface?
The core.
What is beneath the earth surface?
The core.
Why would the pressure decrease from the core to the crust of Earth?
There is less weight pressing down from above as the distance toward the surface decreases.
How hot does the core of the earth get?
the earths core gets hot by all the heat on the surface and gose to the core of the earth.
What is the earths core like?
No. The inner core of Earth is made of a solid nickel-iron alloy. The outer core is made of liquid nickel and iron.
What does the heat from the Earth's core do?
It attempts to reach the surface of the Earth.
