Answer:
22044.3 N
Explanation:
We are given that
Dimension of office window=
Area of office window=
Outside air pressure=P1=0.972 atm
Inside pressure,P2=1.0 atm
Pressure=P2-P1=1-0.972=0.028 atm=0.028\times 101325 Pa=2837.1 Pa
1 atm=101325 Pa
Force,F=PA
Using the formula
Hence, the net force pushes out on the window=22044.3 N
