The inner core is approximately 1271 kilometers in radius and is composed of iron and nickel, the liquid outer core is 2270 kilometers radius, and the radius of the mantle, the thickest solid layer, is 2885 kilometers.
The crust is the outermost solid shell of the planet. It is chemically different from the underlying mantle. The scientific name for the crust is the lithosphere. It has an average thickness of 30-35 kilometers in continental areas and 5 kilometers in oceanic areas.
inner core
Earth's crust consists of solid rock that consists of both dry land and the ocean floor and forms Earth's outer skin. If you really want to get technical, it consists of oxygen, silicon, aluminum, calcium, iron, sodium, potassium, and magnesium. Some additional facts are: Surface Temperature = to 8700 Fahrenheit Thickness = 5 - 70 kilometers Density = 2.6 - 2.9 g/cm3
The earth's inner core is 3160 kilometers beneath the earths surface. The inner core is a solid ball of nickel-iron alloy.
the most common solid on earth is earth itself!

No. The combined thickness of the inner and outer core is about 3500 to 3520 kilometers, out of the Earth's total radius of about 6370 kilometers. This means that the combination of inner solid core and liquid outer core has about 16% of the Earth's volume. *The reference to "1% of the Earth's volume" may refer to the Earth's crust, which has about "1% of the Earth's total mass."

Earth's solid outer layer is called the crust. This question was easy but good luck with watever this was supposed to be realted to.
Radial tires came about in the '70's, and have an interior tube, as opposed to the older tires, which were solid rubber.
The solid inner core if the Earth is 2,400 kilometers in diameter. The fluid outer core is about 7,000 kilometers in diameter.
Anywhere from 5 to 70 miles, roughly, the range of thickness of the lithosphere.

Depending on the shape of the solid thickness of the material varies. Thickness=Volume/(length x width) for a rectangular prism. Thickness can also be measured with the help of a vernier calipers.
