There are three main sources of heat in the deep earth: (1) heat from when the planet formed and accreted, which has not yet been lost; (2) frictional heating, caused by denser core material sinking to the center of the planet; and (3) heat from the decay of radioactive elements.
What else can I help you with?
Why do you think the iron at the earths core is partly liquid?
Heat and pressure.
How much longer will the earths core have heat?
The Earth's core will continue to have heat for billions of years. It is estimated that the core will remain hot for another 1 to 1.5 billion years before it cools down significantly.
WHY IS THAT THE EARTHS INTERIOR IS BELIEVED TO HAVE HIGH TEMPERATURES?
The interior core contains many nuclear properties which gives of huge amounts of heat which then heats the core.
What is earths mantle heated by?
Earth's mantle is mainly heated by the decay of radioactive isotopes and residual heat from the formation of the planet. This heat causes convection currents in the mantle which drive plate tectonics and other geological processes.
How do the earths inner core and outer core interact with each other?
The Earth's inner core and outer core interact through the process of convection. Heat from the inner core causes the outer core to heat up and become less dense, leading to the movement of molten iron and nickel in a circular pattern. This convection motion generates the Earth's magnetic field.
Where does volcano get their heat from?
The earths core.
Where does geothermal energy get the heat required to produce energy?
i am not sure but i think the drive some kind of tubing deep into the earth and use the heat from the earths core
What happens in earths interior to produce earths magnetic?
The movements in the liquid inner core.
What happens in earths interior produce earths magnetic field?
The movements in the liquid inner core.
How hot does the core of the earth get?
the earths core gets hot by all the heat on the surface and gose to the core of the earth.
What factor increases as you go deeper toward earths core?
Heat
Why do you think the iron at the earths core is partly liquid?
Heat and pressure.
Convection currents produce the heat in the earths interior?
False.
Does convections currents produce the heat in the earths interior?
False.
What is ultimately responsible for all of the Earth's weather conditions?
heat from the earths core
Is volcano heat renewable?
Yes because the earths core is constantly hot.
Are you closer to the earths core or moons surface when standing at sea level?
Earth's core
