Harry— That’s a good question. I have never seen a model that considers the actual gravitational field experienced throughout the earth resulting in the increased pressures with depth to the center and thereabouts. At first glance it would seem that radial forces would go to zero which by definition is no pressure. Thus it would seem that the radial force would increase along the radius until it reached a maximum at some depth below the surface and then, deceased to zero again in space beyond earth’s influence.
I am interested in any analysis that gives a high pressure at the center. I would think that dense particles in a liquid that allows settling would tend to move along the gravitational field unless atomic and molecular forces become more dominant and somehow hold heavy atoms in a lighter lattice at some radius above the origin—center. Does any Vort know of an answer?
