Answer

Density increases the deeper in Earth you go. This is because as you go deeper into the earth, pressure, and temperature increase. The inner core is the most dense layer because of its composition

This is due to the fact that pressure and temperature rise as you descend down into the ground.

Temperature, pressure, and density change as you travel deeper down the earth.

  • Density, pressure, and temperature rise as you descend down into the Earth.
  • The rate at which the temperature of the Earth rises with depth is known as the geothermal gradient. It suggests that the Earth's surface is receiving heat from the planet's warm centre. For every kilometre of depth, the temperature rises by about 25°C on average.
  • Geologists estimate that for every mile of depth below the surface of the Earth, the temperature climbs by 15°F and the pressure rises by around 7,300 pounds per square inch. The infamous forbidden zone is made up of known violations of the 15-degrees-per-mile guideline.
  • That's because less air is pressing down on you from above. Similar to this, pressure rises as you go deeper underwater. Hydrostatic pressure is the term for underwater pressure.
