Textbook Question
Chapter 13, Problem 34SP
At a height of 10 km (33 000 ft) above sea level, atmospheric pressure is about 210 mm of mercury. What is the net resultant normal force on a 600 cm2 window of an airplane flying at this height? Assume the pressure inside the plane is 760 mm of mercury. The density of mercury is 13 600 kg.
