INTERIOR OF THE EARTH

HARI RAAM
LAYERS OF THE EARTH
CRUST
MANTLE
CORE
CRUST
 There are two different types of crust
 Thin oceanic crust that underlies the ocean
basins, and thicker continental crust that underlies
the continents.
 These two different types of crust are made up of
different types of rock. The thin oceanic crust is
composed of primarily of basalt, and the thicker
continental crust is composed primarily of granite.
 The low density of the thick continental crust
allows it to "float" in high relief on the much higher
density mantle below.
 Composition
 The Crust is composed of mainly granite,
basalt, and diorite rocks
 Temperature
 The Crust's temperature is different
throughout the entire crust. The temperatures
start at about 200° Celsius and can rise up to
400° Celsius.
 The Moving Layer
 In the Mantle there are Convection Currents
which will be defined more in The
Mantle section. These huge currents are
causing the crust to constantly move. These
movements will cause earthquakes and
volcanoes to erupt. The moving of the crust is
also known as Theory of plate tectonics
SIAL
 the term 'sial' refers to the composition of the
upper layer of the Earth's crust, namely rocks
rich in silicates and aluminium minerals. It is
sometimes equated with the continental crust
because it is absent in the wide oceanic
basins
 Sial has a lower density (2700–2800 kg/m3)
than sima
 which is primarily due to increased amounts of
aluminium, and decreased amounts of iron
and magnesium
SIMA
 This layer is made of rocks rich in magnesium
silicate minerals
 when the sima comes to the surface it is
basalt, so sometimes this layer is called the
'basalt layer' of the crust. silicate minerals
 Because the ocean floors are mainly sima
 The sima has a higher density (2800 to 3300
kg/m3) than the sial
 which is due to increased amounts of iron and
magnesium, and decreased amounts of
aluminium
DISCONTINUITY
 The earth interior is made of different kinds of
materials. Each of those materials are
different from each other by their physical and
chemical properties, such as temperature,
density etc. and also develop unique layers
according to their characteristics inside the
earth. All those layers are separated from each
other through a transition zone, which is called
as discontinuity.
MANTLE
 The mantle is a layer between the crust and
the outer core. Earth's mantle is
a silicate rocky shell with an average thickness
of 2,886 kilometres (1,793 mi). The mantle
makes up about 84% of Earth's volume.
 The mantle encloses the hot core rich
in iron and nickel, which makes up about 15%
of Earth's volume.
 Sections
 The mantle is divided into two
sections. The Asthenosphere, the bottom layer of
the mantle made of plastic like fluid
and The Lithosphere the top part of the mantle
made of a cold dense rock.
 Temperature
 The average temperature of the mantle is
3000° Celsius. The temperature of the mantle will
become much hotter as you get closer to the Inner
Core
 Composition
 The mantle is composed of silicates of iron
and magnesium, sulphides and oxides of
silicon and magnesium
 Thickness
 The mantle is about 2900 km thick. It is the
largest layer of the Earth, taking up 84% of the
Earth.
 Convection Currents
 Convection currents happen inside the
mantle and are caused by the continuous
circular motion of rocks in
the lithosphere being pushed down by hot
molasses liquid from the asthenosphere. The
rocks then melt and float up as molasses liquid
because it is less dense and the rocks float
down because it is more dense.
LITHOSPHERE
 The rigid outer part of the earth, consisting of
the crust and upper mantle.
ASTHENOSPHERE
 The upper layer of the earth's mantle, below
the lithosphere, in which there is relatively low
resistance to plastic flow and convection is
thought to occur.
 Thickness of asthenosphere is 180 km
CORE
 The Earth's core is the part of Earth in the
middle of our planet. It has a solid inner core
and a liquid outer core.
 The outer core of the Earth is a liquid layer
about 2,260 kilometers thick. It is made of iron
and nickel
 The temperature of the outer core ranges from
4400 °C in the outer regions to 6100 °C near
the inner core
 Convection of liquid metals in the outer core
creates the Earth's magnetic field.
 The Earth's inner core is the Earth's
innermost part. It is primarily a solid ball with a
radius of about 1,220 kilometres
 It is composed of an iron–nickel alloy and
some light elements.
 The temperature at the inner core boundary is
approximately 5700 K (5400 °C)

Each of those materials are different from each other by their physical and chemical properties, such as temperature, density etc. and also develop unique layers according to their characteristics inside the earth. All those layers are separated from each other through a transition zone, which is called as discontinuity.

The mantle makes up about 84% of Earth's volume.  The mantle encloses the hot core rich in iron and nickel, which makes up about 15% of Earth's volume.
  • 14.  Sections  The mantle is divided into two sections. The Asthenosphere, the bottom layer of the mantle made of plastic like fluid and The Lithosphere the top part of the mantle made of a cold dense rock.  Temperature  The average temperature of the mantle is 3000° Celsius. The temperature of the mantle will become much hotter as you get closer to the Inner Core

  • 16.  Convection Currents  Convection currents happen inside the mantle and are caused by the continuous circular motion of rocks in the lithosphere being pushed down by hot molasses liquid from the asthenosphere. The rocks then melt and float up as molasses liquid because it is less dense and the rocks float down because it is more dense.
  • 17. LITHOSPHERE  The rigid outer part of the earth, consisting of the crust and upper mantle.

It has a solid inner core and a liquid outer core.  The outer core of the Earth is a liquid layer about 2,260 kilometers thick. It is made of iron and nickel  The temperature of the outer core ranges from 4400 °C in the outer regions to 6100 °C near the inner core
  • 20.  Convection of liquid metals in the outer core creates the Earth's magnetic field.  The Earth's inner core is the Earth's innermost part. It is primarily a solid ball with a radius of about 1,220 kilometres  It is composed of an iron–nickel alloy and some light elements.  The temperature at the inner core boundary is approximately 5700 K (5400 °C)
