Use your graph to determine the following temperature and depth information. (i) What is the temperature at 400 km depth of the mantle? (ii) What is the depth at which the mantle temperature is 650°C? (d) Describe the pattern/trend between the depth in the mantle and the temperature.
Understand the Problem
The question is asking for specific information about the temperature and depth in the mantle, based on a graph that presumably accompanies this question. It includes three parts: determining the temperature at a specific depth, finding the depth at a specific temperature, and describing the relationship between depth and temperature.
Answer
Use the graph to find the temperature at 400 km and the depth for 650°C.
To answer these questions, use a specific graph showing the mantle's temperature-depth relationship.
Answer for screen readers
To answer these questions, use a specific graph showing the mantle's temperature-depth relationship.
More Information
The temperature increases with depth in the mantle, obeying a geothermal gradient.
Tips
Ensure you accurately read the graph values for precise answers.
