Between what depths does Earth's temperature increase the slowest?

Physics

8 0
Temperature increases at a rate of approximately 20o C/km in the upper crust (first 10 km) but then the rate decreases to only approximately 0.3o C/km below 200km due to the homogenizing effect of mantle convection. A good approximation of the rate of pressure increase with depth is: 30 MPa/km in the crust and 35 MPa/km in the mantle.

A cyclist is riding his bike up a mountain trail. When he starts up the trail , he is going 8 m/s. As the trail gets steeper, he
Mrac [35]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

Our cyclist's change in speed = (3 m/s) - (8 m/s) = -5 m/s

Acceleration = (-5 m/s) / (60 seconds)

<em>Acceleration = -1/12 m/s²</em>
