What causes parts of Earth's crust and mantle to be vaporized and ejected into a space?

A big huge impact with another body - planet, moon, asteroid, etc. Possibly a big enough volcano would eject material into space, but it would not be able to break free of gravity and would instead come raining back down sooner or later. Oh, and you're gonna love this.... The big meteorite, asteroid or comet impact sounds like a candidate. Same with the volcano. No doubt about the planetary collision scenario. But consider that some nuclear tests have thrown material out away from earth far enough for it to be swept away by the solar wind.

∙ 9y agothat can lead to great hottness or coldness for the planets vem though they are miles and iles away from each other people dont have a answer for sure but they do for 75% out of 100% which is a lot and not alot for it to be sure it has to be more then a 100% or 100%

Which statement best explains how convection currents can occur in earths mantle?
Earth's rotation causes mantle convention. But you already knew that! :P
What is the color of the earths mantle?
the earth's mantle is brown
What causes thinning in the earths crust?
Thinning of the Earth's crust is caused by the Earth's mantle heating up and expanding. As the mantle expands, large areas of the crust fall in, where they are melted.
What in earths mantle causes tectonic plates to move?
Convection currents in the mantle are what causes tectonic plates to move. Uneven heating of the mantle results from radioactive decay of some long-lived isotopes in the mantle, which are not evenly distributed.
What process causes earths plates to move?
The process of 'earth plates moving' is Alfred Wageners theory of continental drift. This theory proposes that convenction currents in the earths mantle provides a 'cushion' on which the plates can move.
What causes earths plates to move continuously?
Convection in the earth's mantle.

How many layers in earths mantle?
there are 7 layers in earths mantle.
Why is the earths crust always moving?
Simple- Convection in the mantle causes mantle to slowly move, and it pushes against the crust. As it does this, the tectonic plates move.
What causes volcanoes and earthquacks?
Volcanoes are caused by the rising of magma in the earths mantle and earthquakes are caused by the colliding of the earths tectonic plates against one another.
Earths middle layer?
the mantle

What is under the earths surface and in the earths crust?
mantle
Where would you be most likely to find granite in earths mantle or earths continents?
you will find it in earths mantle because it is a kind of an igneous rock
