List of top Geology and Geophysics Questions on Gravity anomalies

A spherical ore body produces a maximum gravity anomaly of 18 mGal when its centre is at a depth of 2 km from the surface. Assuming that the density contrast and the radius of the body remain unchanged, the ore body will produce a maximum gravity anomaly of 2 mGal if the depth to its centre in km is _______ (in integer).

For the given figure, considering Pratt's model of isostatic compensation at the crust–mantle boundary, the crustal density ($\rho_1$) that explains 1.5 km deep lake is $\underline{\hspace{1cm}}$ kg/m$^3$. (Consider density of water $\rho_w = 1000$ kg/m$^3$) [round off to 2 decimal places] \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=0.5\textwidth]{05.jpeg} \end{center}
