Other orbiting bodies contain more iron then earths crust does
What else can I help you with?
What element makes up most of the earths core?
Iron is the primary element that makes up most of the Earth's core. It accounts for about 85% of the core's composition, with the rest likely being nickel in combination with some lighter elements.
Why do scientists think the earths core contains iron?
Scientists think the Earth's core contains iron because of the planet's magnetic field. Iron is a magnetic material, and the Earth's magnetic field is generated by the movement of molten iron in the outer core. Additionally, seismic waves and the density of the Earth indicate a high concentration of iron in the core.
Almost all of the water vapor in earths atmosphere is contained in the?
Troposphere. This is the lowest section of the earths atmosphere that contains 75% of the earths atmosphere by mass and 99% of the earths water vapour. This section of the atmosphere starts at the surface and extends 7-20km up, the thickness depending largely on where you are in the world.
Why do scientist think earths core contains iron?
Scientists believe Earth's core contains iron because of the planet's density and magnetic field. Iron is a dense material that would sink towards the core during the Earth's formation. The presence of iron is also supported by seismic wave behavior and the Earth's magnetic field, which is generated by the movement of molten iron in the outer core.
Why do scientists think earths core is made of iron?
Scientists think Earth's core is made of iron because iron is a dense material, and it is abundant in Earth's crust. Also, studies based on seismic waves and Earth's magnetic field support the idea that the core is composed mostly of iron.
What element makes up of the earths core?
scientists think that the earths core is made up of mostly iron, and contains smaller amounts of copper nickel.
What part of the earths system contains the air you breath?
I think it's the atmosphere
Do geologist work in a lab?
yeah i think they do!
What element makes up most of the earths core?
Iron is the primary element that makes up most of the Earth's core. It accounts for about 85% of the core's composition, with the rest likely being nickel in combination with some lighter elements.
Who is a geoligst?
I think you mean geologist. A geologist is a person who studies the earth's physical structure and substance, its history, and the processes that act on it.
What do you think earths atmosphere would be like today if life had not evolved on earth?
Almost no oxygen, lots of CO2, still mostly nitrogen.
Who was the first geologist to walk on the moon?
I think it was Harrison Schmitt.
How do geologists think earths atmosphere formed?
how do geologists think earths atmosphere is formed
How many rocks does one geologist find each year?
It depends a lot on what the geologist is looking for, how much time they spend in the field or in the lab, and what they think is a "find".
Whats the nature of God?
i think jesus a the only god because learning about space is just like learning about the past earths and because mostly all the time i get i answer when i pray
How do scientists think earths crust moves?
The crustal plates (made mostly of low density granitic rock) float on the mantle (made mostly of high density basaltic rock). Convection cells in the mantle move the floating crustal plates around.
WHY do scientists think earths core contains irons?
The iron nickel core has been determined to actually exist from the examination of meteorites, from the gravitational field of Earth, and from the Earth's density in comparison to its volume.
