10. What is the correct sequence of events that gives scientists an idea of the physical properties of various depths of the earth's interior?
l. Seismic waves travel fast through the lithosphere. II. Below the asthenosphere, seismic waves travel fast again indicating that the lower part of the mantle is solid. IlI. Seismic waves travel through the outer core indicating that it is molten. IV. Below the lithosphere, the seismic waves slow down which indicates a very high temperature. V. The high pressure in the deepest part of the Earth keeps the inner core solid.
