Pressure in Earth

[scipt]

Can anyone tell me at what depth the pressure is greatest in the Earth's crust. Obviously at the surface and centre it is Zero (ignoring Atmospheric pressure of course). <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

Pressure is greatest at the center of the earth, despite your analysis.<br /><br />So is temperature, but amaingly enough, gravity is zero.<br /><br /><br />BTW, we have covered all of this several times in the 2 years I have been posting at SDC.<br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#ff0000"><strong>TPTB went to Dallas and all I got was Plucked !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#339966"><strong>So many people, so few recipes !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#0000ff"><strong>Let's clean up this stinkhole !!</strong></font> </p> </div>

vogon13's right, you know...if you meant "where is gravity the greatest" it would probably be more instructive for somebody to answer that question for gaseous stars which follow the gas laws. Those are simpler than the various crystal structures found in the Earth's interior, including stuff we don't know about.<br /><br />I don't know ... <img src="/images/icons/crazy.gif" />
