The surface of the early Earth is often described as hellish by scientists. The high temperature is primarily attributed to the high levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the molten rock on the surface of the planet. However, these two aren't the only factors in play.
Another factor that contributed to the extremely high temperature of the early earth is radioactivity. Radioactive decay of the isotopes found underground plus the left over heat from the formation of our planet produced high levels of radiogenic heat.
There's also the kinetic energy from falling asteroids and meteorites. Massive amounts of energy in the form of heat and sound is produced when asteroids and meteorites hit the Earth. Also, the pressure waves that travel radially outwards the center of the impact is similar to the impact of an atom bomb. As such, dust particles envelop the atmosphere, trapping the heat from the impact.
The last factor is the gravitational contraction, it contributed to the hellish temperature of primordial Earth because the energy generated from such event is enough to trigger hydrogen fusion.
Oxygen is a compound , phosphorus and nitrogen , and reservoirs
i think it answer A.... i'm not sure
Answer:
The correct answer is - A. through the use of earthquake waves.
Explanation:
The interior of the earth can not be studied or seen by digging the hole, for that scientist normally use the movement of seismic waves, from earthquakes or nuclear test explosions, are reflected, slow down, sped up bent by passing through the different layers.
Waves behave differently as they move in different layers and their material helps scientists to learn and study the layers and their constituents. It explains that the Earth's interior has a series of concentric shells, with a thin outer crust, a mantle, a liquid outer core, and a solid inner core.
