earth a unique planet

the earths mantle is 2,900 km thick. The earths cor is dense solid sphere with the radius of 1,228 km wide. it is mostly molten iron. P waves travel through liquids solids and gasses. S waves travel faster through rigid materials. the magnetosphere is the region of space which is affected by the earths magnetic field. you weigh less on a mountain then you would on sea level because the further you are from the earth  and there is less gravity pull.
