state the properties of the core of the earth
Answers
Explanation:
Earth's core is the very hot, very dense center of our planet. The ball-shaped core lies beneath the cool, brittle crust and the mostly-solid mantle. The core is found about 2,900 kilometers (1,802 miles) below Earth's surface, and has a radius of about 3,485 kilometers
Explanation:
1.Core of the earth is divided in to two parts outer core and inner core
2.Outer core is liquid and inner core is solid
3.It is made up of Nickel and Iron (NiFe)
4.Core has very high density i.e above 10 gm per cm compared to surface
5.Primary seismic waves can pass through core, while passing their velocity increases.
6.Secondary seismic waves can not pass through outer core.
7.Core is very very hot than surface of the earth. 8.It has around 6000 degree celcius temprature.
Core spins faster than earth.
9.Inner core and outer core spins in opposite direction.
