Monica [59]

Answer:

$x = 0.48485\ GPa$

Explanation:

Given

$Rate = 0.1GPa/3.3km$

Required:

Determine its pressure at 16km

Let the pressure at 16km be x.

So, the rate at 16km is:

$Rate = x/16km$

Equate both rates

$x/16km = 0.1GPa/3.3km$

Multiply both sides by 16

$16km * x/16km = 0.1GPa/3.3km * 16km$

$x = 0.1GPa/3.3 * 16$

$x = 1.6GPa/3.3$

$x = 0.48485\ GPa$
