Physical Layers Divided based on physical properties (state of matter and movement) 1. Lithosphere - A The Outermost rigid layer of the earth Made up of solid crust and upper mantle It is in pieces called tectonic plates 2. Asthenosphere (B) Layer of weak or soft mantle Made up of slow ...
Layers of the Earth DiagramThe Earth is structured in several layers, each with unique physical and chemical properties. These layers are divided based on their composition and behavior under temperature and pressure. From the outermost to the innermost, these layers include the Crust, Mantle, ...

BENO GUTENBERG has examined this problem in the light of a suggestion made by Zoeppritz in 1912 that changes with distance in amplitudes of observed cosmic waves was give the required infortable. Three hundred earthquakes in southern California and several earthquakes recorded at Heancaye, Heru, and...
The earth is made up of different layers that have different compositions and properties; they are responsible for how the continents are formed. All the layers play a certain role on earth and give answers to some occurrences on earth. Take the quiz below and see just how well you understan...
