Question
13.) in general, what happens to pressure as you move outward from earths interior?
a.) decreases b.) decreases then increases
c.) increases d.) increases then decreases
14.) what happens to temperature as you go deeper into the earth?
a.) decreases b.) decreases then increases
c.) increases d.) increases then decreases
For question 13: As you move outward from Earth's interior, the weight of the overlying material decreases. Pressure is related to the weight of the overlying material. So, pressure decreases.
For question 14: As you go deeper into the Earth, due to the heat from radioactive decay and residual heat from Earth's formation, the temperature increases.
