\section{Assumptions and Model of Mars}
background info We are using a very simplified model of Mars for our calculations. We are approximating Mars as a spherically symmetric, Earth-like terrestrial planet with a metal-rich core and a liquid mantle.
We are assuming net heat flow moves radially outwards because the core is the hottest portion of the planet.
[INSERT FIGURE OF MODEL FROM HW 8]
The moment of inertia of Mars I/MR^2 = 0.366 indicates that the interior Mars is less differentiated than Earth.
