let me see if I can find some diagrams
irrelevant
assumptions on top of assumptions
direct observations from measurements just because it doesn't agree with you doesn't mean you can throw it away
we have no clue what is under the surface
yes. bcs it assumes you know what is underneath
and we don't
lol we didn't
it wasn't until like the 60's we knew
that's the point
we stil dont know
!!
"reeeeee"
This is basically what caused Isaac Newton to drop his right club banger @Toastlawine
. Usually, they use seismic waves, which are waves generated by earthquakes or nuclear-test explosions. ... So, scientists study the path and speed of these waves through the earth to decipher boundaries and the materials that make up the layers.
People knew things would fall to the ground
But Isaac newton wanted to know why
By looking at the time of arrival of the main set of waves, and how the frequencies of the waves are arranged within the set, scientists can learn about the density and other properties of the layers. The relative differences in arrival times of the S and P seismic waves at several recording stations tell scientists about the different speeds those waves were traveling at, which in turn gives information about the density of the material the layer is made of, and how thick the layer is in several directions.
easy
Well, we can't go there, you are very right! We are restricted to deep mines (less than a mile) and also deep drilling (about 10 miles at MAX!)...but seismic waves generated when an earthquake occurs in fact travel throughout the entire Earth !! Hence by studying the rate at which these waves travel through the earth we can infer the density thickness and overall characteristics (composition) of the earth as a function of depth. When we do that we find that 33 % of earth is iron metal, and the remaining portion is silicate materials(rocks)
But how do you know that this works this is ridiculous! You cannot shoot waves into the ground and tell what material it is
^^^^
somebody is getting it
If you line up a rod of metal and a wooden dowel, and hit one end of each with a hammer and press your ear to the other end. Does the sound wave reach the other end of each rod at the same time? If you can find rods that are the same size but of different metals (or maybe try plumbing and electrical conduit pipes, which you can probably find in steel, copper, and maybe galvanized aluminum) hit one end of each with a hammer. Do they ring at the same frequencies? Why or why not?
it's all BS
just because you don't understand it
doesn't mean its fake
easy
I studied Geology
all calculations have assumptions based on the gobstopper model
no you didn't you studied chemistry
I have a degree in chemistry. but I studied geology. for 2yrs. was my first major
then switched
i see why you left lmao
actually biochem
too hard
I graduated with a perfect 4.0 cumulative GPA for both undergrad and grad
a highschooler can pick basic stuff like this up
lmao i have lliterally no reason to believe you
it's the internet
