The liquid outer core of earth is 2300 km thick a scale model of the layer of earth has a scale of one in 500 km how big is the liquid outer core of the model
To find the size of the liquid outer core in the scale model, you would divide the thickness of the actual liquid outer core (2300 km) by the scale (1:500).
2300 km / 500 = 4.6 km
Therefore, the liquid outer core of the model would be 4.6 km thick.
