Layer of the Earth
Storyboard Tekst
- Well, well, well, what do you think slow poke? we are in the mantle.
- We are experiencing huge differences because we are 951,443,6 feet under ground. meaning the mantle is 2,900 km thick. Oh and it is the thickest layer.
- It's immensely hot because convection currents are moving hot material up and colder material down.
- well, I can hardly think straight considering how hot it is, I think it is around 8,132 to 8800 degrees Fahrenheit, it is far hotter than the crust, that's for sure.
- Wow these semisolid rocks look like magma, maybe they are. I feel like fainting from all this heat though.
- Sir, no disrespect to groundhogs or anything but I really don't find this hygienic, so my question is, why are we doing this?
- To get to the inner core, now shut it, and come along
- I heard in school that it is 2,300 km thick, that explains why it's more dense, but just out of curiosity sir, where is the gold, should't there be some here?
- Whew, we are here, I must admit though, it looks no different from the mantle
- It doesn't, but their properties are certainly different. It is the only liquid layer the Earth has and basically a sea of iron and nickel, and it is way hotter than the mantle, about 7,200 to 9,000 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Well unless you want to put liquid into your pocket, I suggest we move on and go to the inner core where we will see solid properties.
