About 80% of the earth's volume is made of mantle.

The mantle is a layer inside a terrestrial planet and some other rocky planetary bodies. For a mantle to form, the planetary body must be large enough to have undergone the process of planetary differentiation by density. The mantle lies between the core below and the crust above. The terrestrial planets (Earth, Venus, Mars and Mercury), the Moon, two of Jupiter's moons (Io and Europa) and the asteroid Vesta each have a mantle made of silicate rock.Interpretation of spacecraft data suggests that at least two other moons of Jupiter (Ganymede and Callisto), as well as Titan and Triton each have a mantle made of ice or other solid volatile substances up of Mantle

To solve this problem, we must take two important steps. First we will convert all the given units, to international system. Later we will define the torque, which is given as the product between the radius of application of the force and the Force acting on the body. Mathematically the latter is,

$\tau = r F$
