Earth Diagram Mantle. Just below the crust lies the mantle. The mantle lies between earth s dense super heated core and its thin outer layer the crust.
The outer core flows around the centre of the earth and the movement of the metals creates our planet s magnetic field. The pressure at the bottom of the mantle is 140 g pa 1 4 m atm. The rock is.
Interestingly there are two cores noted the inner and the outer.
The mantle is divided into upper and lower mantle separated by a transition zone. Notice also how the chemical composition of the earth varies with depth. This diagram shows us how thin the crust is in relation to the rest of the earth along with relative sizes of the mantle and core. Earth s mantle is 2 900 km thick and is broken down into 3 main.
