At the sea level the atmospheric pressure 101 x 10³ Pa is acting on a table top of size 1m². Under such a heavy pressure, why doesn't the table top crumble down? |

Answer» Because there is AIR below the table as well.Explanation:The PRESSURE of air below and above the table are same. So the FORCE EXERTED by the air above the table is COUNTERED by the force exerted by the air below the table. |
