OBJECTIV
ES:
Earth’s Interior
Who Studies Earth’s Interior?
Geologists
Scientistswho study the forcesthat make and
shapeplanet Earth.
 They study the processesthat create Earth’s features
and search for clues about Earth’s history.
What kind of evidence do scientists use to
learn about the interior of the earth?
Direct vs. Indirect
Direct evidence: from rock samples.
Scientists drill up to 12 km into the earth.
Forces blast rock from as deep as 100 km.
Indirect evidence: from seismic waves
How do scientists study the Earth?
 To reach the Earth’s core you would have to travel over 6,000 km
(3,728 miles)!
 Scientists record Seismic Waves – a vibration that travels
through Earth carrying the energy released during an
earthquake
 Types of seismic waves –
Pwaves – travel through crust(6km/sec) and mantle(8km/sec)
Swaves – will nottravel through liquid

Layers
of
the
Earth
EARTH
• Earth is a medium-size planet with a diameter of
approximately 12,760 kilometers.
• It is one of the terrestrial planets, composed
primarily of heavy elements such as iron, silicon,
and oxygen—very different from the composition
of the Sun and stars, which are dominated by the
light elements hydrogen and helium.
• Earth’s orbit is nearly circular, and Earth is warm
enough to support liquid water on its surface.
• It is the only planet in our solar system that is
neither too hot nor too cold, but “just right” for the
development of life as we know it.
Some Properties of the Earth
Property Measurement
Semimajor Axis 1.00 AU
Period 1.00 year
Mass 5.98 x 10^24 kg
Diameter 12,756 km
Radius 6378 km
Escape Velocity 11.2 km/s
Rotational Period 23h 56m 4s
Surface Area 5.1 x 10^8 km2
Density 5.514 g/cm3
Atmospheric Pressure 1.00 bar
• The top layer of the Earth is the CRUST which is divided
into two types.
CRUST
• Oceanic crust – covers 55% of Earth’s
surface and lies mostly submerged under
the oceans. It is typically about 6 kilometers
thick and is composed of volcanic rocks
called basalt.
• Continental crust – covers 45% of the
surface, some of which is also beneath the
oceans. The continental crust is 20 to 70
kilometers thick and is composed
predominantly of a different volcanic class
of silicates (rocks made of silicon and
oxygen) called granite
Composition of the Crust
• Primitive rock is an essential type of rock
that can reveal information about the early
history of the solar system. It has not been
significantly altered by heating and
represents the original material that formed
the solar system. Primitive rock is not found
on Earth due to the planet's early heating,
but researchers can study smaller objects
like comets, asteroids, and small planetary
moons to find it. Some samples of primitive
rock can even be found in objects that fall
to Earth from these smaller celestial bodies.
• It is the largest layer of the Earth by volume.
• The mantle extends to a depth of about 2,900
km (1,800 miles).
MANTLE
• The upper mantle is composed of silicate
rock and is the source of magma that fuels
volcanic eruptions.
• The lower mantle is under pressure and
temperature than the upper mantle, and is
thought to be composed of more dense
materials such as magnesium and iron.
CORE  Two parts
 Outer Core – liquid; behaves like a
thick liquid; forces the solid inner core to
spincausing Earth’s magnetic
field
 Inner Core – solid; extreme
pressuresqueezes the atoms of
iron and nickel so that they cannot
spread out to become liquid
 Inner core and outer core are just slightly
smaller than the moon
Section 2: Convection and the Mantle
How does Heat transfer?
Radiation – heat transfer
through empty space; ex.
sunlight
Conduction – heat transfer
through direct contact
Convection- heat transfer by
movement of
heated fluids
How do convection currents affect
the Earth?
 Heating and cooling a fluid
changes its density; warmer fluids
have a lower density and float;
colder fluids have a higher density
and sink
CONVECTION CURRENT WORKS IN THE EARTH’S
INTERIOR
Section 3: Drifting Continents
Were the continents once together?
Alfred Wegener
hypothesized that
all the continents
had moved from a
supercontinent
known as Pangaea.
What is the evidence for Wegener’s
idea?
 Evidence of Continental Drift:
Landforms– similar mountain ranges
Fossils– similar fossils of a fernlike
plant existed on both continents
Climate– tropical plant fossils found in
coldclimates
Section 4: Sea-Floor Spreading
What is happening in the ocean?
Using sonar scientists
discovered mountains
under the ocean
The longest chain of
mountains in the world is
under the ocean and is
known as the Mid- Ocean
ridge!

SONAr image of the Titanic (2.5 miles below sea level)
Debris field surrounding the stern of the ship
Bow and stern
sections rest 1.5
miles apart from
each other.
What is sea-floor spreading?
 Harry Hess suggested that at the
mid-ocean ridge molten
material rises from the mantle
and erupts; pushing older rock
to both sides
 This process is known as sea-
floor spreading!
What is the evidence for Sea-floor
spreading?
Evidence from Molten Material
Evidence from Magnetic Strips
Evidence from Drilling Samples
How can the ocean floor keep from getting
wider and wider?
 The older ocean floor plunges
into deep-ocean trenches in a
process known as
subduction
 Sea-floor spreading and
subduction work
together like a giant conveyer
belt!
Plate Tectonics
• Plate tectonics is a theory that
explains how the slow movement
of the Earth's mantle causes the
crust to move, resulting in
continental drift and the
formation of geological features.
• It is a fundamental concept in
geology and is compared to
evolution in biology and gravity
in astronomy.
Section 5: What is the theory of plate
tectonics?
 The Earth’s lithosphere is
cracked into separate sections
known as plates
 Geological theory states that these
plates are in constant, slow
motion, driven by the convection
currents in the mantle
How is the theory of plate tectonics
different from continental drift?
 Continental driftis based on the movementof the continents DUEto
plate tectonics
 Continents are NOTthe same as plates
 Tectonic platescan be made up of both oceaniccrust and
continentalcrust
What happens where the plates meet?
 Plate Boundaries – where the
edges of the lithosphere meet;
faults form along these boundaries:
Transform
Divergent
Convergent
What are Transform boundaries?
 The place where two plates
slip past each other, moving in
opposite directions
Earthquakes occur
frequently at these
boundaries
What are Divergent Boundaries?
 The place where two plates
move apart, or diverge and
create a rift valley
 Most occur at the mid-
ocean ridge although some
can occur on land
What are Convergent
boundaries?
 The place where two plates come
together, or converge creating a
collision
Subduction occurs at convergent
boundaries
 The density of the crust determines
which curst will be on top – if both plates
are the same density they form a
mountain range

TYPES OF
FAULTS
INTRODUCTION
Deformation is the change in the shape, size or
position of the bed due to the applied forces.
Fault is brittle type of deformation in which
fracture or rupture when will be developed before
the displacement of block.
Due to the effect of differential stresses we can
observe verity of deformation structures.
Fault
terminology:-
There are disposition of different
type of faults
 Epicenter
Point directly above the focus
 Hypocenter Focus
The source from which the energy is released radiating from all
directions.
 Earthquake
It is a shaking of the surface of the earth resulting from a
sudde release of energy in the lithosphere.
Causes of faults
• Faults are essentially the shear or sliding failures, resulting
from tensional, compressional, rotational stress acting the
crustal rock masses.
• They may be due to the shrinking Earth; or due to the
convection currents produced in the Earth.
• The faults occur in volcanic areas and mountain zones, they
are found in plains and plateaus.
3 TYPES OF FAULTS
NORMAL FAULT
It is a type of fault that
REVERSETHRUST FAULT

ACTIVITY:
 Activity No. 2
 WHERE DOES AN EARTHQUAKE START?

After performing this activity, you should be able to:
 Differentiate focus and epicenter; and
 Demonstrate how movement along faults affect the surroundings.
 Materials Needed:
 fault model scissors paste
 Procedure:
1. Photocopy the Fault Model (Figure 12; you can also trace it on paper). Then cut along the outlines of the two
drawings.
2. Fold along the lines and paste where indicated. In the end, you should have a model consisting of two parts
that fit together (Figure 1).
3. The upper surface of the model represents the surface of the Earth. The trace of the fault on the surface of
the Earth is called the fault line. Be ready to point out the fault line when your teacher calls on you.
4. Pull the two pieces apart (Figure 14). The flat surface between the two pieces is called the fault plane. This is
where fault slip or fault movement happens. Point out the fault plane when your teacher asks you.
5. The place where the fault begins to slip is called the focus. It is where the first movement occurs. Thus, the focus is
the origin of the earthquake. Be ready to explain it to your teacher.

  • 17. • A. Describe the components ofE arth’s interior and B. Explain how scientists determined its structure. C. Specify the origin, size, and extent of Earth’s magnetic field . OBJECTIV ES:
  • 18. Earth’s Interior Who Studies Earth’s Interior? Geologists Scientistswho study the forcesthat make and shapeplanet Earth.  They study the processesthat create Earth’s features and search for clues about Earth’s history.
  • 19. What kind of evidence do scientists use to learn about the interior of the earth? Direct vs. Indirect Direct evidence: from rock samples. Scientists drill up to 12 km into the earth. Forces blast rock from as deep as 100 km. Indirect evidence: from seismic waves
  • 20. How do scientists study the Earth?  To reach the Earth’s core you would have to travel over 6,000 km (3,728 miles)!  Scientists record Seismic Waves – a vibration that travels through Earth carrying the energy released during an earthquake  Types of seismic waves – Pwaves – travel through crust(6km/sec) and mantle(8km/sec) Swaves – will nottravel through liquid http://aspire.cosmic-ray.org/labs/seismic/seismic.swf
  • 22. EARTH • Earth is a medium-size planet with a diameter of approximately 12,760 kilometers. • It is one of the terrestrial planets, composed primarily of heavy elements such as iron, silicon, and oxygen—very different from the composition of the Sun and stars, which are dominated by the light elements hydrogen and helium. • Earth’s orbit is nearly circular, and Earth is warm enough to support liquid water on its surface. • It is the only planet in our solar system that is neither too hot nor too cold, but “just right” for the development of life as we know it.
  • 23. Some Properties of the Earth Property Measurement Semimajor Axis 1.00 AU Period 1.00 year Mass 5.98 x 10^24 kg Diameter 12,756 km Radius 6378 km Escape Velocity 11.2 km/s Rotational Period 23h 56m 4s Surface Area 5.1 x 10^8 km2 Density 5.514 g/cm3 Atmospheric Pressure 1.00 bar
  • 24. • The top layer of the Earth is the CRUST which is divided into two types. CRUST • Oceanic crust – covers 55% of Earth’s surface and lies mostly submerged under the oceans. It is typically about 6 kilometers thick and is composed of volcanic rocks called basalt. • Continental crust – covers 45% of the surface, some of which is also beneath the oceans. The continental crust is 20 to 70 kilometers thick and is composed predominantly of a different volcanic class of silicates (rocks made of silicon and oxygen) called granite
  • 25. Composition of the Crust • Primitive rock is an essential type of rock that can reveal information about the early history of the solar system. It has not been significantly altered by heating and represents the original material that formed the solar system. Primitive rock is not found on Earth due to the planet's early heating, but researchers can study smaller objects like comets, asteroids, and small planetary moons to find it. Some samples of primitive rock can even be found in objects that fall to Earth from these smaller celestial bodies.
  • 26. • It is the largest layer of the Earth by volume. • The mantle extends to a depth of about 2,900 km (1,800 miles). MANTLE • The upper mantle is composed of silicate rock and is the source of magma that fuels volcanic eruptions. • The lower mantle is under pressure and temperature than the upper mantle, and is thought to be composed of more dense materials such as magnesium and iron.
  • 27. CORE  Two parts  Outer Core – liquid; behaves like a thick liquid; forces the solid inner core to spincausing Earth’s magnetic field  Inner Core – solid; extreme pressuresqueezes the atoms of iron and nickel so that they cannot spread out to become liquid  Inner core and outer core are just slightly smaller than the moon
  • 28. Section 2: Convection and the Mantle How does Heat transfer? Radiation – heat transfer through empty space; ex. sunlight Conduction – heat transfer through direct contact Convection- heat transfer by movement of heated fluids
  • 29. How do convection currents affect the Earth?  Heating and cooling a fluid changes its density; warmer fluids have a lower density and float; colder fluids have a higher density and sink
  • 30. CONVECTION CURRENT WORKS IN THE EARTH’S INTERIOR
  • 31. Section 3: Drifting Continents Were the continents once together? Alfred Wegener hypothesized that all the continents had moved from a supercontinent known as Pangaea.
  • 32. What is the evidence for Wegener’s idea?  Evidence of Continental Drift: Landforms– similar mountain ranges Fossils– similar fossils of a fernlike plant existed on both continents Climate– tropical plant fossils found in coldclimates
  • 33. Section 4: Sea-Floor Spreading What is happening in the ocean? Using sonar scientists discovered mountains under the ocean The longest chain of mountains in the world is under the ocean and is known as the Mid- Ocean ridge!
  • 34. Side-scan sonar locates missing plane Courtesy of NOAA. Side-scan sonar image of the remains of the submarine USS O-9 (SS-70) off the Isle of Shoals, New Hampshire in more than 400 feet of water. Courtesy of NOAA.
  • 36. Debris field surrounding the stern of the ship
  • 37. Bow and stern sections rest 1.5 miles apart from each other.
  • 38. What is sea-floor spreading?  Harry Hess suggested that at the mid-ocean ridge molten material rises from the mantle and erupts; pushing older rock to both sides  This process is known as sea- floor spreading!
  • 39. What is the evidence for Sea-floor spreading? Evidence from Molten Material Evidence from Magnetic Strips Evidence from Drilling Samples
  • 40. How can the ocean floor keep from getting wider and wider?  The older ocean floor plunges into deep-ocean trenches in a process known as subduction  Sea-floor spreading and subduction work together like a giant conveyer belt!
  • 41. Plate Tectonics • Plate tectonics is a theory that explains how the slow movement of the Earth's mantle causes the crust to move, resulting in continental drift and the formation of geological features. • It is a fundamental concept in geology and is compared to evolution in biology and gravity in astronomy.
  • 42. Section 5: What is the theory of plate tectonics?  The Earth’s lithosphere is cracked into separate sections known as plates  Geological theory states that these plates are in constant, slow motion, driven by the convection currents in the mantle
  • 43. How is the theory of plate tectonics different from continental drift?  Continental driftis based on the movementof the continents DUEto plate tectonics  Continents are NOTthe same as plates  Tectonic platescan be made up of both oceaniccrust and continentalcrust
  • 44. What happens where the plates meet?  Plate Boundaries – where the edges of the lithosphere meet; faults form along these boundaries: Transform Divergent Convergent
  • 45. What are Transform boundaries?  The place where two plates slip past each other, moving in opposite directions Earthquakes occur frequently at these boundaries
  • 46. What are Divergent Boundaries?  The place where two plates move apart, or diverge and create a rift valley  Most occur at the mid- ocean ridge although some can occur on land
  • 47. What are Convergent boundaries?  The place where two plates come together, or converge creating a collision Subduction occurs at convergent boundaries  The density of the crust determines which curst will be on top – if both plates are the same density they form a mountain range

  • 77. 10. THE ANSWER IS... A R C H I T E C T
  • 79. INTRODUCTION Deformation is the change in the shape, size or position of the bed due to the applied forces. Fault is brittle type of deformation in which fracture or rupture when will be developed before the displacement of block. Due to the effect of differential stresses we can observe verity of deformation structures.
  • 80. Fault terminology:- There are disposition of different type of faults
  • 81.  Epicenter Point directly above the focus  Hypocenter Focus The source from which the energy is released radiating from all directions.  Earthquake It is a shaking of the surface of the earth resulting from a sudde release of energy in the lithosphere.
  • 82. Causes of faults • Faults are essentially the shear or sliding failures, resulting from tensional, compressional, rotational stress acting the crustal rock masses. • They may be due to the shrinking Earth; or due to the convection currents produced in the Earth. • The faults occur in volcanic areas and mountain zones, they are found in plains and plateaus.
  • 83. 3 TYPES OF FAULTS
  • 84. NORMAL FAULT It is a type of fault that
  • 85. REVERSETHRUST FAULT It is a type of fault that
  • 86. STRIKE SLIP FAULT It is a type of fault that
  • 87. ACTIVITY:  Activity No. 2  WHERE DOES AN EARTHQUAKE START?  After performing this activity, you should be able to:  Differentiate focus and epicenter; and  Demonstrate how movement along faults affect the surroundings.  Materials Needed:  fault model scissors paste  Procedure: 1. Photocopy the Fault Model (Figure 12; you can also trace it on paper). Then cut along the outlines of the two drawings. 2. Fold along the lines and paste where indicated. In the end, you should have a model consisting of two parts that fit together (Figure 1). 3. The upper surface of the model represents the surface of the Earth. The trace of the fault on the surface of the Earth is called the fault line. Be ready to point out the fault line when your teacher calls on you. 4. Pull the two pieces apart (Figure 14). The flat surface between the two pieces is called the fault plane. This is where fault slip or fault movement happens. Point out the fault plane when your teacher asks you. 5. The place where the fault begins to slip is called the focus. It is where the first movement occurs. Thus, the focus is the origin of the earthquake. Be ready to explain it to your teacher.
