The inner core is under so much pressure it does not move like liquid?

The Earth's inner core has such high temperatures and pressures that metals found here are tightly squeezed together, and they do not move like a liquid. Instead, these metals are forced to vibrate in place as a solid.

Which Earth layer has the lowest density?
The inner core has the most or highest amount of density (iron/nickel).
Which layer of the earth has the greatest pressure?
The lowest level, the troposphere near the Earth's surface, has the highest pressure.
What does the outer core of the earth consist?
Really, really hot lava Don't you ever Play minecraft
Layer of the Earth made mostly of iron.?
Inner core, which is also the innermost region of the Earth.
What are the three layers of the interior of the earth?
The Earth has 5 layers start from the deepest: Inner core, outer core, inner mantle, outer mantle, crust.
Is the inner core or the outer core solid?
In inner core is solid while the outer core is liquid. This is because the inner core, being deeper, is under more pressure.
Why is the inner the outer core liquid?
the inner core is solid because of tremendous pressure the outer core is liquid due to less pressure and heat
Why outer core is liquid?
It is because the outer core is not under enough pressure to be solid, so it is liquid even though it has a composition similar to that of the inner core.
Is the inner core molten?
The inner core is solid due to pressure. With less pressure on it, the outer core is liquid.
What is the inner core is under so much pressure it does not move like a liquid it?
the pressure is making it behave in a solid form
The inner core is under so much pressure it does not move like a liquid it does what?
the pressure is making it behave in a solid form
Is the outer core a liquid and the inner core a solid?
Yes, although the inner core is hotter than the outer core, there is more pressure. This pressure is enough to keep the inner core solid.
The inner core is under so much pressure it does not move lika a liquid it?
acts like a solid
What distinguishes Earth's inner core from its outer core?
the inner core is solid , the outer core has less pressure, so it is liquid
Why isn't the inner core liquid like the outer core?
The pressure at the inner core is so enormous that iron, and the rest of the inner core remains a solid.
What prevents the outer core from changing to a gas and the inner core to a liquid?
pressure
Is the core liquid or solid?
There are two parts of the core: Inner and Outer. The outer core is liquid, the inner solid. The inner core is solid due to the pressure exerted on it, despite the excessively high temperature.
