What is Volume
The amount of space an object fills up or takes up.
What is the top layer called
Crust
The central most part of the planet
Core
Formula to use when looking for density
Mass divided by volume = density
What is the formula for volume?
Mass divided density = Volume
What is the top mixing layer called?
Lithosphere
The part of the core that is in the most center part or the deepest layer
Inner core
What is density
How closely packed the matter is inside of something.
When you place an object in water and the water goes up. What method is this called to find volume
Water displacement method
What is the 2nd mixing layer called
Asthenosphere
The part of the core that is liquid
Outer Core
1.0 g/cm3
If you have a regular shaped geometric shaped object and you want to find the volume, what is the formula?
Length x width x Height
What is the layer in between the crust and the core called
Mantle
What is it called when the mantle moves in a circular movement?
Convection Current
In the layers of the Earth, the more dense material is found the closer you get to the center of the Earth.
What is the top part of the mantle called
Upper mantle
Bottom part of the mantle
Lower mantle
Why are there layers of the Earth
They have differant pressures applied to each layer and what they are made of.
