Rock can melt from 600- 1200C, depending on the type of rock, but this is assuming 1atm pressure. Under the earth, there are higher pressures, increasing the melting point. So although the rock should have melted by the mantle, which is 500-4000C and at a depth 35-2900km below the surface, it is a silly putty-like plastic solid rather than a liquid. The earth only becomes liquid at a depth of 2900km in the earth's outer core, but that is made of metal, not rock, so essentially, none of it.
What else can I help you with?
What sphere of earth is made of all the rock above and below earths surface?
Geosphere
What do you call the point below the earths surface where the rock breaks under stress and tension?
fre
What is the pressure at a depth of 5000 km below the earths surface?
At a depth of 5,000 kilometers below the Earth's surface, the pressure is estimated to be around 1.5 million atmospheres (or 150 gigapascals). This immense pressure arises from the weight of the overlying rock and the increasing density of materials as depth increases. However, it's important to note that the Earth's mantle and core are primarily composed of solid and liquid materials that behave differently under such extreme conditions.
When the pressure of rock layers pressing on an aquifer from above and below squeezes water up to the earths surface its called?
artesian
What names is given to the molten rock below the earths surface?
Magma. Magma rises towards the surface when it's less dense than rock around it. Otherwise, it collects in magma chambers and cools, forming igneous rock.
What rock can melt at a depth of about below earths surface?
50km
What is igneous rock that forms below earths surface extrusive or intrusive?
Igneous rock that forms below the Earth's surface is intrusive.
What is magma cooled below earths surface called?
Intrusive rock
What would have larger crystals igneous rock that formed below earths surface or above?
below
What is the kind of igneous rock that forms below earths surface called?
Intrusive igneous rock (plutonic rock).
What is the definition of magme?
Molted rock below Earths surface is called Magma.
What type of rock can form deep below earths surface or above?
igneous
WHAT IS EARTHS INFERRED PRESURE AT A DEPTH OF 3500 KM BELOW THE SURFACE?
The inferred pressure at a depth of 3500 km below the Earth's surface is estimated to be around 1.3 million times atmospheric pressure at sea level. At such depths, the immense weight of the overlying rock layers causes this high pressure.
When melted rock cools or hardens on it under earths surface it forms rock?
Igneous rock. Extrusive igneous rock forms at or near the surface, intrusive igneous rock forms below the surface.
What sphere of earth is made of all the rock above and below earths surface?
Geosphere
What is the nake given to mopten rock below the earths surface?
If you mean name given to molten rock then the answer is magma
What refers to rocks that are produced when melted rock or magma from inside Earths cools or hardens on or below Earths surface?
i think the answer your looking for is igneous rock.....that is the type of rock you get after megma cools.....
