Study the diagram about the varying pressures of Earth’s Layers. Earth apostrophe s layers. The Crust at depth of 0 kilometers, upper mantle depth 410 kilometers, lower mantle depth 2,900 kilometers at 125 gigapascals, 2,200 degrees Celsius. Outer core depth 5,100 kilometers at 330 gigapascals, 5,000 degrees Celsius. Inner core at 364 gigapascals, 5,500 degrees Celsius.

Which is the best estimated pressure, represented in units of GPa, of the lower mantle?

110 GPa
220 GPa
305 GPa
360 GPa

The correct answer is A. 110GPa

Explanation

Pressure refers to a force applied to a surface or object either by another object or factors such as the atmosphere. This is calculated considering the force applied and the area. Additionally, this factor can be measured using the unit gigapascals (GPa), which is more common in geography and related areas.

In this context, the lower mantle, which is the layer below the upper mantle has a pressure between 24GPa and 130GPa; and this is a high pressure if compared to the pressure in the surface. Thus, the estimated pressure in this zone is 110GPa because this is the only number that is between the range of pressure in this zone, while others show a higher pressure that is not found in this layer.
