With a mass of 60 kg and a height of 1.6 m, the surface area of the human body is approximately 1.65 m2.

With a mass of 60 kg and a height of 1.6 m, the surface area of the human body is approximately 1.65 m2. Calculate the force with which the atmosphere presses on a person.

m = 60 kg.
h = 1.6 m.
S = 1.65 m ^ 2.
P = 101325 Pa.
F -?
According to the definition of pressure P, this is the ratio of the force F to the area S on which this force acts.
P = F / S.
F = P * S.
F = 101325 Pa * 1.65 m ^ 2 = 167186.25 H = 167 kN.
Answer: a person is affected by a force F = 167186.25 N = 167 kN.
