Answer:

The inner core is solid.

The outer core is liquid and moving.

Earth’s core is composed of iron and nickel.

Explanation:

Convection currents are produced in the outer liquid core. This motion together with the Earth's rotation creates a system of electrical currents, since it is composed of metals such as iron and nickel. The magnetic fields generated by the electric currents align, creating the Earth's magnetic field. The solid inner core acts as a stabilizer of the magnetic field generated by the liquid outer core.

GalinKa [24]
Evidence for the particle nature of light are not: 1. refraction, 2.  many colors of light, 3. diffraction. These are all phenomenon that support wave theory of light. Evidence for particle nature of light is photoelectric effect. Because it was discovered that you need discrete energies of light to eject electrons from a metal surface and not continuous as the wave theory of light suggests.

Answer:

<u>B</u>

Explanation:

Planets have different year lengths because it depends how far they revolve from a celestial body. Each planet has its own orbital period. Planets closer to the star will have a lower orbital period compared to the ones that lie far away from it.
