somewhere between 1000 to 4000 degrees Celsius.
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.
Because towards the center of the earth, there is more mass on top of it, so there is more pressure. All of the other layers, and the stuff on top of the earth is pushing down on it from all sides. For the mantle, its only the stuff on the top of the earth that is putting pressure on it.
The weight of the rocks in the crust and upper mantle.
The pressure in the stiffer mantle, which is part of the Earth's upper mantle, increases with depth due to the weight of the overlying rock. At depths of about 400 to 700 kilometers, pressures can reach approximately 10 to 20 gigapascals (GPa). This high pressure contributes to the mantle's rigidity and the behavior of materials under these conditions, influencing geological processes like plate tectonics and mantle convection.

The rock of the mantle is hot enough that it would melt at surface pressure. The weight of the lithosphere creates such great pressure on the mantle that it remains solid.
yes it does
The weight of the rocks in the crust and upper mantle results in the pressure that allows diamonds to form.
Pressure is involved because as the plates move apart, lower mantle material is hot, flexible, and solid. This rock is solid because of the great pressure of the layers above it. However. as the rock of the lower mantle rises, the pressure drops and the material melts.
The lower mantle is under greater pressure than the upper mantle, compressing the rock into a denser form.

The pressure within the stiffer mantle ranges from about 14 GPa (gigapascals) at the upper boundary to over 136 GPa at the core-mantle boundary. This high pressure contributes to the solid-state behavior of the mantle material despite its high temperature.
The density of the mantle increases with depth due to the increase in pressure and temperature. The lower mantle, in particular the part known as the D'' layer, is where the density of the material is greater due to the higher pressure and temperatures compared to the upper mantle.
