Consider a stationary, thin, flat plate with area of 2.00 m^2 for each face oriented perpendicular to a flow. The pressure exerted on the front face of the plate (facing into the flow) is 1.32 atm , and is constant over the face. The pressure exerted on the back face of the plate (facing away from the flow) is 2,088.6 lb/ft^2 and is constant over the face. Calculate the aerodynamic force in kilo-newtons on the plate.
