What else can I help you with?
What is the outermost layer of the earth's crust?
the outer most layer of earth is CRUST
How thick is the outermost layer of the Earth?
No the crust is the outer layer of the earth!!!
What is the solid out layer of the earth?
The thin solid outermost layer above the mantle is the Crust.GAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
What layer of the atmosphere is closest from the earth?
The troposphere is the layer closest to the Earth.
3 How do earthquakes help us learn about the interior of the earth?
Earthquakes explain and support tectonic plate theory and show the movements of the plates over time. Fault lines also expose rock layers and allow geologists to study the rocks and the changes in the environment over time.An Earthquake gives out Seismic waves which. There are Primary Waves (P-Wave) and Secondary waves (S-Wave) The Secondary Seismic wave can't travel through liquid so when the sensors detect a wave and sees that some part the S-wave isn't going through a layer of the earth they know that that layer of the earth is Liquid.
What layer of the earth will a seismic wave travel trough faster?
The mantle
What type of earthquake wave travels faster?
P-waves(primary waves) travel faster than S-waves(secondary waves)
What layer of the atmosphere do meteors travel through?
Meteors typically travel through the mesosphere, which is the third layer of the Earth's atmosphere located above the stratosphere. This layer starts around 31 miles (50 kilometers) above the Earth's surface and extends up to about 53 miles (85 kilometers) high.
The study of how seismic waves change as they travel through the EARTH HAS REVEALED?
Earth's outer core is liquid because S-waves are not transmitted through this layer
What layer of Earth do Secondary waves NOT travel through?
Secondary waves, also known as S-waves, do not travel through the outer core of the Earth due to its liquid state. S-waves can only propagate through solid materials.
Layer of the earth through which P waves travel slowly and S waves cannot travel at all?
The outer core is the layer through which P waves travel slowly and S waves cannot travel at all. This is due to the outer core being composed of molten iron and nickel, which hinders the transmission of S waves.
Which have scientist learned from studying seismic waves that travel through earths interior?
The speed of the waves that travel through the interior can tell the density of each layer of the Earth. Some waves can make it through certain layers, but not others.
What compositional layer would you travel through in the exact center of earth?
At the exact center of the Earth, you would pass through the Earth's inner core, which is composed primarily of solid iron and nickel. This innermost layer is surrounded by the outer core, mantle, and crust as you journey towards the surface.
Where are you if your digging through the outermost layer?
You are in the Earth's crust if you are digging through the outermost layer of the Earth. The crust is the thinnest and outermost layer of the Earth, ranging from about 5 to 70 kilometers in thickness.
How can seismic waves be used to help scientists know what type of material each layer of the earth is made of?
Seismic waves travel at different speeds and change direction when they encounter different materials. By analyzing how seismic waves travel through the Earth, scientists can determine the composition of each layer based on the wave's speed and direction changes. This information helps create images of the Earth's interior and understand the properties of each layer.
Do p waves travel through earths mantle?
Yes, P-waves (primary waves) can travel through the Earth's mantle. P-waves are a type of seismic wave that is capable of propagating through solid, liquid, and gaseous materials. They are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through the mantle, which is the layer between the Earth's crust and core.
How much time does the light take to travel through layer 3?
The light takes approximately 8 minutes and 20 seconds to travel through layer 3.
