What layer does the inner core spin in?

The inner core deep inside the earth. It is the layer below the outer core and that is where it spins...


What is the purpose of the earths outer core?

There is no "purpose"; the density of the materials in the outer core are less pressured and spin slower than the inner core. NOTE: the inner core spins faster than the outer, creating Earth's magnetic field.


The way in the Earths core spin is believed to be the source of its?

magnetic field.


How might the areas of solid iron floating over the Earths molten core affect our planet's spin?

they give it a slight wobble


Where does the earths magnetic field originated from?

The Earth's magnetic field is generated by the the Earth's spin and the fact that it has molten iron in its core. When convecting molten metals spin they generate electric currents and with these a magnetic field.


How do the arrows this figure indicate that the inner core spins faster than the outer core?

The arrows in the figure likely represent the direction and speed of flow within the Earth's inner and outer core. If the arrows in the inner core are longer or more densely packed compared to those in the outer core, it indicates a faster rotation. Additionally, if the arrows in the inner core point in the same direction as the Earth's rotation, while those in the outer core are slower or more chaotic, this further illustrates the difference in spin rates between the two layers.


Convection in the What creates earths magnetic filed?

Earth's molten outer core rotates. That outer core is made up mostly of molten iron. The movement of the molten iron produces the magnetic field.When currents in the outer core force the solid inner core to spin at a slightly faster rate than the rest of the planet causes the Earth to have a magnetic field.


Is the core's spin the same as the Earth's spin?

There is actually some evidence that earth's inner core rotates slightly faster, but not by much, only about, or about 0.00075% faster. So it rotates about one extra degree per year. This "hyperrotation" may play a role in magnetic reversals.


What is one complete spin onEarth's axis called?

rotationis one complete spin on earths axis!!!


Why do eggs spin?

Only hard boiled eggs spin because the inner part is solid.


Why does the outer core spin around the outer core?

Because they have different viscosities and densities.


Does the Earth's core spin within the planet?

Yes, the Earth's core spins within the planet.
