Explanation:
The depth 1800 km is about the middle of the mantle that extends
from Moho discontinuity between Crust and mantle at about 60 km
to the outer core, at about 3000 km, where the temperature is
4000+^oC. The temperature, density and pressure increase with
depth. The temperature is likely to be around
depth of 1800 km. The mantle layer here is supposed to be
seismically homogeneous.
