Biology

Mrac [35]3 years ago

It reduces

Explanation:

The density of the heated mantle rock reduces because its volume has increased.

  • Frictional heat, heat from radioactive decay and heat that accretted originally when the earth was forming are responsible for heating the mantle.
  • When a substance is heated, it expands and its volume increases.
  • Density is a function of mass and volume.
  • The higher the volume, the lower the density.
  • The higher the mass, the higher the density.
  • When the mantle is heated, its volume increases to a new one and its density reduces.
