Chapter 1.1, Problem 61E

Tornado pressure when a tornado passes near a building, there is a rapid drop in the outdoor pressure and the indoor pressure does not have time to change. The resulting difference is capable of causing an outward pressure of 1.4 lb / in 2 on the walls and ceiling of the building.

(a) Calculate the force in pounds exerted on 1 square foot of a wall.

(b) Estimate the tons of force exerted on a wall that is 8 feet high and 40 feet wide.
