What are the consequences of the pressure and temperature in the interior of the earth?

उत्तर
The temperature in the core ranges from 4400°C to about 6000°C. Pressure and density increases towards the interior of the earth. The inner core is in solid state due to high pressure and density which compresses the molten rock material. Outer core is in liquid state as there is not enough pressure to keep it in a solid state.
