Theoretically, it is true. This is because of the fact that a lot of work has been done concerning the matter in labs but no one has ever even tried to drill through the Earth, so by virtue of lack of proof, it is just a theory.</p>\n<p>But if the Earth's core was actually hot, there are three possible causes of the heat.</p>\n<ul>\n <li><strong>DECAY OF RADIOACTIVE ELEMENTS:</strong> The Earth is laden with a stupendous amount of materials. Some of these materials are radioactive. This means that they tend to decay and emit energy. This energy is converted into thermal energy in the Earth and such leads to an increase in the core temperature of the planet. Considering how many megatons of radioactive elements are present in the Earth, it's a very viable possibility.</li>\n <li><strong>FRICTIONAL FORCES PRODUCED BY DENSE METALS SINKING DEEPER INTO THE EARTH: </strong> It is hypothesized that the Earth's core is composed of iron and other dense metals. Thus the iron rich substances scattered through out the earth are constantly sinking towards the core. The frictional force they produce is said to generate about 2,000 kelvins or about 3,000F. </li>\n <li><strong>RESIDUAL HEAT FROM THE EARTH'S FORMATION: </strong>Heat can be transferred through three ways. radiation, convection and conduction. Radiation is the fastest of the three while conduction and convection are significantly slower. Thus it is hypothesized that there is still some heat in the Earth from when it was formed. The only means of losing this heat would be through conduction or convection and as I said, they are quite slow.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>These are three possible reasons for why the Earth's core would be super hot but it cannot be proven so as I said earlier, it is all hypothetical</p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"fkg3aw99x","appParentAuthor":"chrelye1989","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
