The density of air at sea level and a temperature of 20°C isabout 1.2 kg/m3. What would be the atmospheric pressure at sealevel, in N/m2, if the density of air were constant rather thandecreasing with altitude? (Assume constant temperature of 20°C andan air column height of 32 km.) Use a value of 9.8 m/s2 for g andexpress the answer in standard scientific notation.
