Where h is the crustal thickness of the highest plateau,
b is the average crustal thickness = 50 km(Given), m is the density of the mantle = 3500 km/m3 (Given) and
c is the density of the crust = 2900 km/m3 (Given)
Therefore, the crustal thickness of the highest plateau of Mars is 10.3448276 km excluding the thickness of continental root and continental crust, it just gives the thickness of the highest plateau above sea level.
3. Estimate the crustal thickness of Mars' highest plateau, the Syria Planum, from measurements of the topography a...
