Geothermal energy is the energy drawn from the earth (geo) by way of the hot rocks that are found there. It is created as a result of the tremendous heating caused by the fission of radioactive elements in the earth's core.

Nobody has even gotten close to directly examining the interior of the Earth. So there is disagreement among geophysicists as to how heated the Earth's core is. However, the speed at which earthquake waves, sometimes known as "seismic waves," move can reveal a lot to scientists about the composition of the Earth.

It is thought that the Earth's core temperature ranges between 5,000 to 7,000 degrees Celsius. That is far colder than the sun's inside, yet roughly as heated as the sun's surface.

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

D. set it outside and check on it every day

Explanation:

In order for Brittany to be able to study the soil erosion by using a simplified method of what the farmers do on the slopes to minimize it, she will need to take the pan, leave it outside, and check on it every day. By having the required shape, the soil will give somewhat an example of the soil on the slopes that has been plowed so that the furrows run along the hills. Since the hills do not move or tilt, the pan with the soil should be stable, static. Being put outside, it will be exposed to the natural conditions that cause the erosion, such as the water and wind. Brittany will need to check upon the soil every day and make detailed notes and measurements to see what the erosive effects are on it.
