What happens to the temperature and pressure as you get closer the the earth's core?

Temperature and pressure increase massively from the Earth's surface to the centre of the Earth. At the inner core, the pressure is so great that iron is solid, even at such high temperatures.

What happens to pressure as you move outward from earths interior?
It decreases.
How does the temperature of earths crust change going layer to layer?
The closer the layer is at the Earth's core, the warmer it gets.
What effects are metamorphic rocks formed by?
The high pressure and high temperature inside the earths crust
What happens to the temperature in earths layers?
As you go deeper and deeper the layers will start to get hotter and thicker.
What does the inner core of the earths layers do when its in so much pressure?
The amount of pressure overcomes the material's disposition to melting at high temperature. It solidifies.
What happens to temperature and pressure as depth beneath earths surface increase?
the plates slide in place
What planet temperature is closest to the earths?
Mercury has an average surface temperature (67°) closest to the Earths average surface temperature (14°C). The temperature on Mercury varies a lot though - you could argue that Mars is closer in temperature.
What happens to air pressure as the distance from Earths surface increases?
the air pressure increases
What happens to pressure as you move outward from earths interior?
It decreases.
What happens to pressure as you move outward from earths core?
Pressure decreases as you move outward from the Earth's core. The farther you are from the center, the less mass you will have pressing down on your location. Mass that is underneath you (or in other words, closer to the center) does not press on you, only mass that is above will add to the pressure where you are.
What prevents geologists from studying earths interior?
Depth, temperature and pressure barrier.
Does pressure and temperature increase or decrease with depth below earths surface?
it increases
What happens to the earths weather near warmer waters?
the earth temperature become cool in warm temperature
What do you think happens to temperature as you move from the earths surface to the center?
the temperature would greatly increse!1
How does the temperature of earths crust change going layer to layer?
The closer the layer is at the Earth's core, the warmer it gets.
What happens to air pressure as you move away from earths surface?
it decrease and it is globel warming
What effects are metamorphic rocks formed by?
The high pressure and high temperature inside the earths crust
