1 Background Radiation- Left over radiation (moving energy) from the Big Bang

2 Layers of the Earth

3 Layers of Earth Pizza Style

5 The Moho - boundary between Crust and Mantle The Mohorovicic Discontinuity marks the lower limit of Earth's crust.

6 The Mantle 2/3 of the Earth’s Mass, 70% of Volume Upper Mantle has Lithosphere (solid) and Asthenosphere pressure keeps it solid (plasticity) 2/3 of the Earth’s Mass, 70% of Volume Upper Mantle has Lithosphere (solid) and Asthenosphere pressure keeps it solid (plasticity)

7 The Core Extremely Dense 1/3 Earth’s Mass 30% Volume Outer Core: liquid, iron and nickel (magnetosphere) Inner Core: Solid, Iron (HOT!!! OUCH) Extremely Dense 1/3 Earth’s Mass 30% Volume Outer Core: liquid, iron and nickel (magnetosphere) Inner Core: Solid, Iron (HOT!!! OUCH)

8 Seismic Waves Waves Created by an Earthquake or Explosion Primary (P) Waves move through liquids, solids, Gas Secondary (S) Waves move through only solids Waves bend with changes in density

9 Shadow Zones Non-uniform rigidity in material No S or P waves can get through OR P can get through but not S

10 Isn’t the North Pole where Santa Lives?

11 The Earth’s Magnetosphere -Created from movement of the liquid, which creates a electrical current in the outer core (iron and nickel) -Dipole is created (like a magnet) -Magnetic North and Magnetic South are different from Geographic North and Geographic South

12 Magnetowha?

13 Gravity Mass- the amount of matter in an object, independent of gravity. Weight- measure of the strength of the pull of gravity on an object. Law of Gravitation- states that the force of attraction between any two objects depends upon their masses and the distance between them.

14 Is your weight the same all over Earth? Think of the shape and your distance from Earth at different locations.
