Air within the funnel of a large tornado may have a pressure of only 0.46 atm.
What is the approximate outward force F on a 6.2m x 5.5m wall if a tornado suddenly envelopes the house? Atmospheric pressure is 1.013 x 10^5 Pa. Answer in units of N.
I know that P= F/A, so F=PA. I tryed just multiplying the pressure and area, but that was not correct. I also tried converting atms to Pa and then multiplying; however, that was also incorrect.
Help me, please.
