The height at which the atmosphere cases to exist is about 80km. If the atmospheric pressure on the ground level is 760mmHg, the pressure at a height of 20km above the ground level is

(ρm = 13.6g/cm${}^3$ ρ = 0.00013g/cm${}^3$ )

Answer Details

ρ${}_m$h${}_m$ = ρ${}_a$h${}_a$
13.68(760 - p) × 10${}^{-3}$ = 13 × 10${}^{-5}$(20 × 10${}^3$)

760 - p = 190
p = 760 - 190 = 570mmHg
