below the surface of the earth, as we move deeper towards the core (HEAT's CAUSE) the temperature rises. this rise of temperature with depth is referred to as the geothermal gradient. in most parts of the world that are away from the plate boundaries, with every km depth an increase of 22 degrees Celsius in temperature is observed.
Different areas show different geothermal gradients. in many parts of the world its as high as 30 degrees Celsius per Km and in some its as low as 15 degrees Celsius per Km.

What is the temperature of the interior of earth at a depth of 1000 km?
well that answer will be 6000 km - depths below surface of earth (km)
What is a comet's relationship with Earth's moon?
There is no relationship whatsoever between Earth's moon and any comet.
What is the average rate of temperature increase below the earth's surface?
30 degrees Celsius for each kilometer of depth near Earth's surface
Is there a relationship between earth and Venus?
yes
How is the temperature and pressure in the Earth's mantle related to the depth of the mantle?
The degree of temperature and exertion of pressure by the molten materials (magma) within the mantle is directly proportional to its depth. This means that, the deeper you go down the mantle the higher the degree of temperature and pressure exerted.
What is the relationship between the density of earth materials and depth below the surface of the earth?
As the depth increases, the density increases also.
How does temperature change with depth in Earth's crust?
The temperature increases with increasing depth within Earth's crust.
What is the relationship between the density of the earths materials and depth below the surface of the earth?
As the depth increases, the density increases also.
How does temperature change depth in earth crust?
The temperature increases with increasing depth within Earth's crust.
Does the temperature in Earth's crust decrease in depth?
false, the temperature increases with depth
When depth into the earth increases so does?
Temperature and pressure increase with increased depth into the Earth.
What describes how temperature and pressure change with depth below Earth's surface?
Both temperature and pressure increase with depth.
How old is something found one thousand feet in the earth?
There is no direct relationship between age and depth.
What happen with temperature and pressure as earth's depth increases?
Both temperature and pressure increase as depth increases.
What the temperature of the earth's interior?
Increases with depth
Temperature and pressure increase with depth inside Earth - True or False?
True. Temperature and pressure both increase with increasing depth within the Earth.
What is the relationship between temperature and depth inside earth?
below the surface of the earth, as we move deeper towards the core (HEAT's CAUSE) the temperature rises. this rise of temperature with depth is referred to as the geothermal gradient. in most parts of the world that are away from the plate boundaries, with every km depth an increase of 22 degrees Celsius in temperature is observed. Different areas show different geothermal gradients. in many parts of the world its as high as 30 degrees Celsius per Km and in some its as low as 15 degrees Celsius per Km.
