When you dig a hole at the South Pole, you are technically digging "up" because you are moving away from the center of the Earth. Gravity still pulls you towards the Earth's core, so you are digging upwards towards the surface of the Earth.
Earth's movement through cometry dust is the main reason for meteor showers.
If you were to dig a tunnel straight through the Earth to the other side, you would need to dig approximately 12,742 kilometers, which is the Earth's average diameter. However, practical tunneling is not feasible due to extreme heat, pressure, and geological conditions.
No, you would not. You would burn when you hit the centre of the earth. Even if the Earth did not have a heated centre, you would not hit China unless you lived in the US and dug a perfectly straight line. No, you would not. You would burn when you hit the centre of the earth. Even if the Earth did not have a heated centre, you would not hit China unless you lived in the US and dug a perfectly straight line. No, you wouldn't!!!! The US is in the Northern hemisphere. So is China. Digging through the centre of the earth would land you in the SOUTHERN hemisphere.
Quarries are formed through a process called mining, where large amounts of rock, sand, or minerals are extracted from the Earth's surface or underground. This extraction process can be done through blasting, drilling, or digging, creating holes in the ground which we refer to as quarries. Quarries are typically formed in areas with rich deposits of valuable materials that are economically viable to mine.
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.
The Chinese would be digging to the US. Actually we would all be digging to the center of the earth.
No, it is not possible to dig directly through the Earth. The immense heat and pressure in the Earth's interior would make it impossible for any digging equipment or tunnel to survive.
gravity isnt your problem, passing through the earth's hot core is.
It is impossible to dig through to the other side of the Earth. The center of the Earth is very hot and the heat will cause death before you could ever get through it.

No, digging to China is not possible due to the Earth's hot molten core and the immense distance between the two places. Additionally, the Earth's mantle and crust are too thick to dig through with current technology.
by digging holes in the earth
The Earth's diameter is 7926.28 miles at the equator and 7899.8 miles at the poles.
Perhaps you have imagined digging a tunnel through the earth that comes out the other side. How many kilometers would you have to dig?
Digging out minerals from the earth is called mining. Mining involves extracting valuable minerals or other geological materials from the earth's surface or beneath the surface.
