How well do we know density in the Earth?

How well do we know density in the Earth?. Velocity in the Earth is well known. So far, we have seen how to extrapolate K,G and r using an equation of state K(T f ,P=0) G(T f ,P=0) r (T f ,P=0) K(T,P) G(T,P) r (T,P). What does it all mean? Thermo-chemical Parameterization:

The Carnot Cycle (YAC 5-7 to 5-11)

Idealized thermodynamic cycle consisting of four reversible processes (working fluid can be any substance): The four steps for a Carnot Heat Engine are: Reversible isothermal expansion (1-2, T H = constant) Reversible adiabatic expansion (2-3, Q = 0, T H ?T L )
