QUESTION:
Comparing Example 12.1 (Section 12.1) and Example 12.2 (Section 12.2), it seems that 700 N of air is exerting a downward force of \(2.0\times10^6\ \rm{N}\) on the floor. How is this possible?
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
The following are given by the question:
Force, \(F=2 \times 10^{6}\)
The area from example 12.1, \(A=(4 \times 5) \mathrm{m}\)
The air pressure from example 12.2, \(P=1 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{\ Pa}\)
