What else can I help you with?
What feature of the mantle allows movement of the earths crusts to occur?
The proces is called convection
Why does radiation not occur in the mantle?
The mantle is composed of solid rock that does not undergo radioactive decay at a significant rate. The core of the Earth, rather than the mantle, is the primary source of the Earth's internal heat and radiation due to the decay of radioactive isotopes.
Is the earths mantle made of liquid?
No. The Earth's mantle is a ductile solid.
What is the name given to the area where volcanoes often occur because convection in the earths mantle produces a column of magma that rises into the crust?
hotspots
Where is earths greatest bulk composition?
mantle
What feature of the mantle allows movement of the earths crusts to occur?
The proces is called convection
Where do volcanos occur on Earths surface?
They occur at plate boundaries (Pacific rim "Ring of Fire") or at mantle hot spots (Hawaii, Iceland).
Why can't radiation occur in the mantle?
Radiation cannot occur in the Earth's mantle because the high density and pressure of the mantle material prevent electromagnetic radiation from propagating through it. Instead, heat transfer in the mantle occurs primarily through conduction and convection, with most of the heat generated by the decay of radioactive elements within the mantle itself.
What is under the earths surface and in the earths crust?
mantle
Where would you be most likely to find granite in earths mantle or earths continents?
you will find it in earths mantle because it is a kind of an igneous rock
How is the mixture of cornstarch and water differ from the earths mantle?
the earths mantle is very hot were cornstarch is not hot at all
How is the mixture of cornstarch and water different from the Earths Mantle?
the earths mantle is very hot were cornstarch is not hot at all
What are three parts that make up earths mantle?
The three parts that make up the Earths mantle are the crust, core, and mantle.
Why does radiation not occur in the mantle?
The mantle is composed of solid rock that does not undergo radioactive decay at a significant rate. The core of the Earth, rather than the mantle, is the primary source of the Earth's internal heat and radiation due to the decay of radioactive isotopes.
Is the earths mantle made of liquid?
No. The Earth's mantle is a ductile solid.
Is it hot in the earths mantle?
Decay of radioactive elements in the mantle heats it.
What part is the earths mantle?
The mantle is counted as the middle part of the earth
