I’m here bc it was assigned by my ✨teacher✨
$ OK $
same bruddah
same I don't wanna watch it
Same lol
✨same✨
Anyone else got this for homework, i went to the comments to see if theres a summary but nope.
Its 5 minutes 🙄
@@Diesel257 5 minutes if my time wasted
@@anactualrat5335 Luckily for all of you, your time isn't worth anything yet. 😆
@@Diesel257 bro your name is joe
@@matthewmadjehe Sick burn, Banana.
Oh ... I thought the title was "Why Does The Earth Have Lawyers?"
It is is also an interesting question...
Bubba 😂😂😂
Me too!
😆
Lol
Because our Moon needs a job
Anyone else forced to watched this in school?
Wasn't forced I just wanted help to :0
Yep
Yep
NKJDNFJSNFKJ
Yes
"If you wanna use pressure to melt metal at home , just stack up . 16 million pennies the one at the bottom will liquify in no time . " Hahaha :D
+Hikaru Gabriel Kuboyama whats funny about it, its not that funny
Hikaru Gabriel Kuboyama so I️ did the calculations for I️t. The stack of pennies would exceed the atmosphere
Super Sherazi i'm impressed
Hikaru Gabriel Kuboyama won't work you have to apply the pressure at a rate faster than it can radiate the heat that is being pressed in together. Or you need friction which dies out, aka it loses its heat and solidifies, without an external force or electron source.
I imagine you are being sarcastic though as you were taught physics in school. Yes or no? First answer about the sarcasm second on what they are teaching.
fricken school i making me get recommended science stuff. Anyone else here for school? I'm in third period rn ;')
Me
Sadly
Same
I am but I’m in first period :(
i'm in 4th period rn :P

Earth has layers, ogres have layers, therefor Earth is an ogre, deal with it, you're living on a mean green lightning machine.
But really, can you PLEASE get out of my swamp?
Kostia4381
It's not your swamp, man, the swamp has feelings, man, the swamp has feelings for me, man, the swamp feels me up, man, I married the swamp, man, go enslave another fucking swamp, MAN!
The swamp has stole my ocean. So, it's basically our swamp.
Kostia4381 😂😂😂😂😂
Get necroposted.

That drink looks like it would sell very well in bars
Dante McQueen Not if you knew the ingredients, which are include delicious soap and oil
It's Okay To Be Smart mmmmhh wanna open up a bar? we could make rainbow drinks by adding liquor of different densities and become rich!
+It's Okay To Be Smart "which are include"? It's okay to be not so smart
Waiting for comments saying: "see the earth is actually cooling, global warming isn't real".
RoarOfDamnation Unfortunately, we'll have to wait until well after the death of the sun for the Earth to cool off, so maybe those people want to consider that before commenting :)
I thought exactly that as soon as he said it...
Only those bozos who don't know the difference between the Earth's inner layers and climatology, and I don't think they're on this site.
Gail Lewis I think most people would say that as a joke.
Matt Gray On THIS site, yes, but that was my point.
not many would get the back to the future reference. but i loved it.
Your teacher gave you Geology homework🤭🤭🤭
orgers have layers too. like onions.
ogers*
+jaziel tan I would be so dissapointed if there was't a Shrek comment
+E. Groeg orgers*
jaziel tan It is actually spelt orgerogerlogerbogeronion. But good try.
jaziel tan shrek...
Are we just gonna ignore the “dont worry, *the solar system wont last that long!* ” 😧
y e s
Its an over exaggerated statement, for somebody like me who has anxiety i wouldnt worry about it. Its kinda dumb what they've said.
not in my lifetime i guess
My favorite green ogre once talked about layers too...
3:49 THE SUN IS A DEADLY LAZER
2020 Gang?
So the Earth is like a giant onion?
Does that mean it's like a giant Ogre?
So that's what I'm standing on.
16 million pennies would be $160,000. If one role of pennies is roughly 3 inches long, that stack would be more than 15 miles high.
What would happen if you "touched" the end of the Universe. If you were somehow traveling as fast as the expansion of the Universe, and caught up. Could you touch it? And would it burn? Could you go threw it?
AsiskTheGamer how can I like this comment 200 times?
what if you are misinformed, what if outer space is a hoax and we live in a dome on a flat earth? and not just what if, but you look this up find out it's the truth, you still want to touch the imaginary expanding universe, or do you want to touch the edge of the dome over Antarctica, what if you can't find the edge of the dome over the ice and you find another 🌞 circling a world you never heard of. but that's just the real theory of where aliens might come from, because you sure as hell can't go to the moon. you can't orbit earth either.
+Rocky Stancil what?! what the hell are you talking about flat-earther? go watch Vsause, maybe you'll learn something.
+Alwin Priven it's flat, how that is so hard for sheeple to understand is beyond me, but you might learn something if you open your mind and see through the lies instead of believing the lies. go stack 16 million pennies and watch the bottom one turn to liquid, if you believe this moron in the video. you have eyes and access to internet, Seek and you shall find, ask, and your questions will be answered. just don't ask me, I don't have time to talk to children about 🎅 Santa. it's messed up that we are lied to, but it's because we are invaded by an evil presence that is not human. demonic or other I can't be sure. but flat earth is easy to prove a fact.
are you serious? people have launched space crafts up and they took screenshots, isnt that instant proof?
Get rekt flat earthers
lol savage
Half Peashooter earth is still flat xD (jk)
it's just getting old, not even the channel made a joke about it
Paul E. Yeah ik
Shout out to my teacher for making me watch this
What about an episode exploring the science of zombies? Considering the surge of interest in recent times, it could make for an interesting video.
You could talk about stuff such as Cordyceps and tetrodotoxin, or whether the idea of walking dead people is even phisicly possible?
I like the way you think!
I wonder if fungal cordyceps could jump to humans from insects? The last of us is coming 😬
Peregrine he did, I hope you saw it so your question was answered.
we had to watch this for school and this was the only video I've ever watched for school that really interested me. Thanks
I totally thought of Back to the Future when you said "density" haha
+Tina Cutri Destiny*
+Gunter She was right...
Gabe Lugo Thanks dude. It's as if it were density that someone would say that...
I am always right
Tina Cutri XD
2:32 dem violent boom booms doe...
Because it's an Ogre

Ogres are like onions Earth is like an onion
Uranium is the 7th most abundant metal in the earth's crust. The radioactive decay of this uranium is a supplemental heat source in the crust and part of the driving force behind plate tectonics.
The extremely slow cooling of the earth mentioned in the video is for the much larger remaining mass consisting of the mantle and the core over billions of years.
The atmosphere and the earth's immediate crustal surface is largely heated by solar radiation. The crust can and will continue to warm with time as the increases of CO2 and methane in the atmosphere only serve to retain surface heat better and for longer periods of time during the year.
The earth's surface essentially heats up because the atmosphere is now better at retaining heat or a is better insulator as a result of the increasing CO2 and methane levels.
Heat loss from the core and mantle has to pass to the crust before it can radiate into the atmosphere and be lost into the vacuum of space.
Ok boomer
3:27 Bill gates: now this is a avengers level threat
Hooray for the subtitles! Thank you
My class thinks you're super cool and informative! Keep on doing, what you're doing!
Are u still a teacher
I kinda want to stack 16 million pennies now
"And lots of boom boom" I'm sorry that got me XD
Do "Why do Ogrers have layers" next.
+Taevan Behm xD
becuse their related to onions LOL
+Taevan Behm shrek reference much
xD
Earth is shrinking ....but "don't worry" , the solar system won't last that long 😂
2:52 - I mean, I can make a frisky joke here... But I don't want people thinking I'm a boob.
Wait, hold on...you mean to say "hollow Earth theory" isn't true?!
the boom boom part got me laughing. 🤣
Awesome Videos!
Thanks!
if somehow someone make it to the center of the earth will the gravitational pull be different,Will it start pulling him outwards ?
The Earth has layers cuz it does
Lol
Ummm ok
I thought studying geophysics was something exotic as no one of my friends seem to relate to this. But once you look for that stuff you see it popping up everywhere. Cool video, very simple and visual explanation of complicated science !
these channel deserves more views than its getting
So, I clearly can't read. I read the title as Why does the earth have lawyers.
where did water come from?
0:25 that's not Kola Borehole, which was just a couple of inches in diameter. This looks more like photo of Mir Mine in Yakutia
YOU HAVE CHANGED MY WORLD THANK YOU
Where can I get your awesome shirt?!
mlsgirl90y There are SO MANY "teach the controversy" shirts here, enjoy: controversy.wearscience.com/
Thank you! I needed this for a lesson and it came to me just in time, by random coincidence, via FB. :)
"Teach the controversy". Love it.
That density stuff really only works for fluids. I can leave a gold bar on a wooden plank (if I were a pirate for example) even though gold is much denser than wood, because both are solids. Given that the early earth was largely molten, this isn't a problem, but it's probably worth mentioning to avoid confusion.
What is the average density of the gold bar and wooden plank compared to the water?
I thought it said “why does the earth have lawyers” XD
AlejoYellowface Animations u copied a comment idiot
Jokes in this video have so many layers.
2:31 damn daniel back at it again with the white vans.
Jajaja... density on our hands. Love your videos!!!
lalo sour hahaha*
WHAT R U DOING IN MY SWAMP!!!!!!!!
somebody once told me the wrld was gonna role me I ain't the sharpest tool in the shEed
Oh my god you are wearing one of the "Teach the controversy" shirts :D
I was thinking about getting one but I can't decide which one :s
LKAChannel Who says you have to just get one?!
It's Okay To Be Smart
True, but there's also the little problem called "money" :/
Another awesome video, thanks :-)
here bc of online school
*sharts cutely*/
Funny parts:
Float in a really, really, really big swimming pool.
And violent... boom, booms.
i had this for assignment to watch this video
very informative and explained beyond why the earth has layers, included other explanations that all connect and make sense... thank you!!
What are the four inner planets composed of and why is their composition so different from the four outer planets?
I loved the Sagan bit!! :)
"Violent Boom-Booms"?.... does that mean what I think it does?!
No.
That shirt is amazing
I'm here because my professor directed it to me for my Geology class, im so passionate and love Geology!
Online class brought me here!
Thank you veryy much omg siiiiiiirrrrrrrrrrr, you made my process of learning entertaining and memorable☺️☺️☺️
Its your DENSITY to crack jokes like those 😂
Great video and fantastic channel
Why does the Earth have lawyers?
JNice King Bosslord because it's an ogre, ogres have layers, like onions
2:13 PLEASE slow down. I have no clue what you said.
You forgot that iron and nickel are formed also by radioactive decay do to the Ur and other heavier elements
If that is supposed to be our solar system at 2:05 then the protoplanetary disk is revolving in the wrong direction
Depends on where the system is viewed from.
yeah sure, but how many times have you viewed it from below?
+Federico Porta no up or down in space, but still good point
We have Read about China digging a deep hole into earth. Diameter of earth is 7,917.5 miles. So, for the Present, from there, try to go horizontal somehow and come back in an inverted mug shape...altogether for 30 (10+10+10) Miles. Keep Repeating such tactic at the periphery until technology develops, enabling reaching all the way to the other end of the earth safely !
Just a question, if Earth's inner core is turning solid, how is Earth shrinking? How does the radius change if the core is growing?
“Violent boom booms” bAkuGo-
nice vid dude keep it up!
2:32 I laughed so hard!!!!
Great episode :D
Call me stupid or whatever, but I never thought of earthquakes as being part of the cooling process. I always thought it was plate tectonics. Let me guess, same thing, or all one process? I know the mantle is still cooling, but never thought of the results of cooling 'up here'. Yeah, I'm not a scientist guy or anything, but I like science.
To clarify that a little: Earthquakes are not CAUSED by the cooling or contracting of the Earth, they are due to friction and collision thanks to plate tectonics. But you can look at Earthquakes as Earth working toward an eventual steady state someday in the far future, with heavy, cooler stuff working toward the core.
When an Earthquake happens, the mass of the Earth is redistributed ever so slightly in a way that lowers Earth's moment of inertia (like a figure skater drawing in their arms) by concentrating a bit more mass toward the center, and causes it to spin ever so slightly faster (the Japan 'quake shortened the day by a millisecond or so, if I remember correctly).
There are many theories as to what drives plate tectonics, and it's likely due to several things at once, like convection currents in the mantle, sinking ocean crust as it gets older, the strain from the bulge of our rotating Earth, etc.
Given enough time, the Earth's core and mantle will eventually cool off, but the sun will have gone red giant by that time and made it all rather irrelevant.
OK, thanks, great info everyone!
So, if the denser elements are in the center does that mean most of earths gold is in the center?
That's exactly right. Compared to iron and nickel, it's still a small percentage of the core's composition, but there's thought to be enough gold down there to coat the Earth half a meter deep. Most of the gold that was or is in the crust (which isn't much, only enough to make a ~70 foot cube in total) probably came from meteorite impacts after Earth had differentiated.
So if the denser elements are in the centre then there must be a lot of osmium and iridium down there.
I love your videos (and your shirts!) keep up the great content :D
At 1:05, why would you float if the atmosphere were MORE dense than you?
You dont sink into the ground because it is solid like you. Not because of density. But you will sink in, like, 100 years because of dispersion.
Awesome videos! Thanks for sharing :D
What you said about the end of the solar system reminds me of a story about a scientist talking about the same topic. When he said that the sun was going would expand and destroy the Earth in about 4.5 billion years, a woman gasped. He reassured her that there was no need to be alarmed. 4.5 billion years is a long time from now. The woman said, "oh I thought you said 4.5 million years."
pov: ur only here because of earth science
I kinda missed 1 point: You said want melt metal at home, stack a lot and the one below should liquify in no-time, while just 1 slide before you said the core is solid. Either there must be more forces at play or one of these things does not add up.
+St.Clair Bij well you know what happens to a bottle of water in a cooler (below zero), it expands and pops the bottle. The core can't do that so it stays "solid"(its more plastic tham rigid) eventhough its hot enough to be liquid, the coin on the other hand has the sides to expand its molecules so it can melt.
Great ending! Thanks for this one. So much better than labeling a diagram.
IMHO, It's okay to be smart deserves waaaaay more subs and views!
+Danny A He has plenty, why does he need more
What processes are believed to have caused the different layers of the Earth to form?
Very nice explanation on the density. The whole video is amazing!
Awesome video!
anyone else got this assignment from your school? im in 3rd per rn
