The core (C), beneath the mantle (B), is the deepest and hottest layer of the Earth. It is made almost entirely of metal. The co

re is made of two layers: the outer core, which borders the mantle, and the inner core. The inner core is shaped like a ball. Iron and nickel in the outer core form an alloy, or a mixture of metallic elements. The outer core is approximately 2,300 kilometers thick and very hot, between 4,000 and 5,000 degrees Celsius. The inner core is made mostly of iron. It is about 1,200 kilometers thick. The iron core is extremely hot—between 5,000 and 7,000 degrees Celsius and A) is a molten mass of magma, much like the mantle. B) fluctuates between solid and liquid, depending on the temperature. C) the pressure there is so great that it cannot melt and it is solid. D) rises up through the other layers of Earth to become the magma of volcanoes.

Answer:

C) the pressure there is so great that it cannot melt and it is solid

Explanation:

  • Earth's inner core is a solid ball and is about 20% of the radius of the earth and temperature can range for  5700 k to 7000 k equal to the sun's surface. The pressure at the inner core is slightly higher between the boundary of the outer and the inner. Due to the high degree of temperature and pressure, the iron does not melt and remains in a solid form.

Explain the differences between the Ptolemaic view of the universe and the new vision of the universe proposed by Nicolaus Coper
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The Ptolemaic view of the universe was geocentric: the Earth was at the center of the Universe, the Moon, Mercury and Venus circled around the Earth in that order, the Sun and the rest of the planets were after, and the starts were located far beyond.

The model of the Universe according to Nicolaus Copernicus was heliocentric: the Sun is at the center of the Universe, the Earth and the other planets circle around it, and the stars are far away and fixed.

What Galileo means by the statement is that neither model was incorrect, or sinful. The universe was created by divine intervention, and humans try to understand its shape. The Ptolemaic approach was an initial understanding of the divine creation, and the Copernican view was more advanced.
