How far down does earths mantle go?
The Earth's mantle extends from the base of the crust down to a depth of about 2,900 kilometers (1,800 miles) at the boundary with the outer core. This region is divided into the upper mantle and lower mantle based on differences in composition and behavior.
How far away are is the upper mantle to the crust?
The crust thins and thickens over the surface of the earth. At a mid-ocean ridge spreading center, the mantle is essentially at the surface. Under neath the Himalayan mountains it is well over 40km.
Is the mantle is the thickest layer of Earth?
The mantle, by far, is the thickest layer of the Earth.
What are the result of heating up the earths core?
this question may actually end humanity because then the lava and stuff that's down there will get hotter and hotter and eventually break through earths crust causing... as far as i know volcano eruptions maybe earthquakes
How far beneath the earths surface would you have to go to the liquid material of the earths core?
about 3,000 km study island question

Does the grand canyon reach to the mantle?
Not even close. It goes down less than two kilometers into the continental crust, over thirty kilometers away from the upper reaches of the mantle. The bottom of the ocean is far closer to the mantle.
How far away is the lithosphere?
You're standing on it. The lithosphere is the crust and upper mantle of the earth.
How far is the mantle away from the crust of the earth?
The mantle is located directly beneath the Earth's crust and is approximately 1,800 miles (2,900 kilometers) thick. The boundary between the crust and the mantle is known as the Mohorovičić discontinuity or Moho.
What layer in earths mantle do plates slide over?
In my 7th grade science class, so far I know that the first layer is the Crust, the second is the Lithosphere, the third is the Asthenosphere, the fourth is The Upper Mentle Region, the fifth is The Lower Mantle Region, this next layer is not considered a layer but it is called the Metal Oxide Belt\Region, the sixth is the Outer Core, and the seventh is the Inner Core.

What is the earths most expansive layer?
The mantle contains the bulk of Earth's rock, far surpassing the crust. The outer core is a liquid, and therefore would not be considered rock.
How far below the earth's surface is the asthenosphere?
The asthenosphere begins at around 100-150 km depth in the Earth. This is below the lithosphere, which consists of the crust and the uppermost mantle (the plates in plate tectonics).The asthenosphere is in the mantle, but it is still unclear how much of the mantle (which goes down to a depth of ~2900 km) is actually part of the asthenosphere.
What is the upper mantel?
The upper mantel is the part of the mantel nearest to the Earth's surface. It is a little cooler than the lower mantel therefore more viscous, or pasty, than the lower mantel. Temperatures range between 932 °F-1,652 °F. at the upper boundary with the crust to over 7,200 °F at the boundary with the core. Although the higher temperatures far exceed the melting points of the mantle rocks at the surface (about 1200 °C for representative periditute), the mantle is almost exclusively solid. The enormous lithostatic pressure exerted on the mantle prevents "melting," because the temperature at which melting begins (the solidus) increases with pressure.
How far is core from mantle?
3160 miles-mantle to inner core.
How far down the leg do the sciatica nerve go?
the pain is upper leg near the groin
