Answer:
The force of the atmosphere 200 KN.
Explanation:
Pressure is the ratio of force applied to the area to which the force is applied.
i.e Pressure = [tex]\frac{Force}{Area}[/tex]
But, Pressure = 100000 pa (100000 N/ [tex]m^{2}[/tex]), and surface area = 2.0 [tex]m^{2}[/tex]
Thus,
100000 = [tex]\frac{Force}{2.0}[/tex]
⇒ Force = 100000 x 2.0
= 200000
Force = 200 KN
The force of the atmosphere 200 KN.
