The density of air is $1\mathrm{.}3k\frac{g}{m^3}$ at sea level. From your knowledge of air pressure at ground level, estimate the height of the atmosphere. As a simplifying assumption, take the atmosphere to be of uniform density up to some height, after which the density rapidly falls to zero. $($In reality, the density of the atmosphere decreases as we go up$.)$
