Pressure & Force

Consider the window (of area 0.46 m^2) of an airplane. If the pressure inside the plane is atmospheric pressure, while the pressure outside is 22 % of P_atm, find the magnitude of the force on the window. Ignore the velocity of the airplane (i.e., ignore Bernoulli's effect). Is the force directed towards the inside of the airplane or towards the outside of the airplane? Correct: Towards the outside of the airplane. Incorrect Towards the inside of the airplane. Incorrect Impossible to tell which way the force points.

Explanation / Answer

According to the question provided we need to find the value of force.

force = (1-0.22)*Patm *0.46 = 0.78*1.013* 10^5* 0.46= 36346.44 N ===============ANSWER)
