13. How deep in the crust is 10 kbar? Lithostatic pressure within the crusts results from the
weight of the rocks above. Assume an average density of 2750 kg/m3. Use the equation
P=p*g*h or P/(p *g)=h 23kPa/m
P=pressure (e.g. kbar), p=density, g-gravity 9.8 m/s2, h= depth (m), 1 kbar=1,000 bars, 1
bar=100,000 Pa, 1 Pa=kg/(m*s2), 1 kbar =100,000,000 Pa, 1 km =1000 m. Give your answer in
kilometers.
