What else can I help you with?
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 the temperature and pressure of the materials in earths layers as you move deeper towards the core?
As you move deeper towards the Earth's core, both temperature and pressure increase significantly. The temperature rises due to the heat generated from the decay of radioactive isotopes and residual heat from the planet's formation. Meanwhile, pressure increases because of the weight of the overlying materials, compressing the layers beneath. This combination of rising temperature and pressure affects the physical and chemical properties of the materials within each layer.
What happens as a result of molten rocks building up pressure under earths crust?
An erupting volcano occurs when the pressure of the molten lava beneath becomes too great.
What effects are metamorphic rocks formed by?
Metamorphic rocks are formed by the effects of high temperature, pressure, and/or chemically active fluids. These forces cause existing rocks to recrystallize and change their mineral composition without melting.
What happens to temperature and pressure as depth beneath earths surface increase?
As depth beneath the Earth's surface increases, both temperature and pressure increase. This is due to the weight of the overlying rock and the Earth's internal heat. The increase in pressure and temperature with depth is known as the geothermal gradient.
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
Can you get closer to the sun or the earths core?
You are already closer to the earths core than you will ever be able to get to the sun

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 air pressure as you move higher above earths surface?
The air is thinner the higher you go.
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.
Does the distance from the sun affect the earth's temperature?
Because of the Earths atmosphere, the distance from the Sun, does not affect the temperature on the surface of the Earth. In the northern hemisphere, we are closer to the Sun in winter and the furthest away in summer.
When you are you closer to the Moon's surface or the earths core?
None, only the earths core is more closer, the moons surface is 37.000 Vertices from earth
What has an effect on earths air pressure?
gas composition of atmosphere (including water vapour); altitude; temperature; and wind velocity.
