crust). The lower mantle runs slowly‚ at a rate of a few centimeters per year. 3. Core: The Earth has an iron-nickel core that is about 2‚100 miles in radius. At the core-mantle boundary‚ composition changes. Seismic waves suggest this material is of a very high density (10-13 g/cm3)‚ which can only correspond to a configuration of metals rather than rock. The presence of a magnetic field around the earth also indicates a molten metallic core. Unlike the crust and the mantle‚ we don’t have any samples

One of the main reason for a lot of change in our life is the rapped raise on temperature which is called global warming. Global warming is the rise in the average temperature of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans since the late 19th century and its projected continuation. Since the early 20th century‚ Earth’s mean surface temperature has increased by about 0.8
